I want to be able to drop into training grounds with a group of any size from 1-12 to allow group training and/or faction combat rituals, e.g. trials of grievance, trials of position, combat tryouts or training for units/recruits, etc.

No exp or CBill gains, and with same mechanics as normal drops, e.g. modules don't seem to work currently inside TG (gotta train as you fight).

Additionally, please allow each participant to choose a side (A, B, or Neutral Observer) and display kills and damage results from combatants afterward for convenience.

Thanks in advance PGI. You're swell!

Balls I wasn't going to read this as it was "MUST READ". Now I've clicked it though....

Bad idea... the servers would have to spool you and your mates a private server. Good idea if it costs you MC though.

I don't get it. Do the servers have to spool us a private server now to go in solo? And you want more MC? I'm already paying more to play this game in beta than I've paid for any on or offline title in a gaming career going back to the late '70s.
How about the devs just start giving us some value for our money that they don't nerf the life out of within a month? There's entirely too much effort being spent thinking of ways to add more suction into a fragile machine. How about a reasonable monthly cap placed on how much you can spend for stuff before things like premium time and hero bonuses become free?

Don't make me hate you PGI devs. You don't want that kind of blood on your hands. So many of us are trying really hard to want to love you. Give a kid a biscuit once in awhile, won't ya - and one that doesn't arrive burned.

This game gets more pay to win every day.

Involves paying MC? Bad idea. Game should encourage private lobbies, and they do not necessarily have to reward you C-bIlls so that way you are not prone to being completely isolated from the community.

You don't do you. No, training ground just puts you in instance on local machine. Yes, support the game you tight ....

i like it. although like it has already been mentioned server space would need to be dedicated to this unless a way was found to reliably host this on a local machine.

i think i am going to add a ink to this to my thread: http://mwomercs.com/...signs-for-free/

This Idea has been discussed a lot of time in the past, the common answer is when UI 2.0 comes out lobbys will be implemented. Hopefully this "UI 2.0" actually comes out by Launch.

a large portion of my remaining issues with this game are wrapped up in UI 2.0, i hope it shows up soon.

Lol. Somebody has lots of mommy's money to spend. Friendly suggestion, try opening your eyes and and try realizing that PGI is not utilizing the several million dollars we have given them appropriately.

It's called a job. Maybe you should get one rather than claiming benefits?

I'd like to have this so my unit can 'film' inside the MWO engine. Even being able to drop in four or five mechs would be great.

You must be really careless with money if that is the case. Again, paying MC to host a private server...
