...they don't share anything of note.


That's part of the annoyance.

WAIT, please buy this new mech pack.
This might be the only Mech Pack Announcement hall which doesn't, but there's still time to fix that.


CW Phase 3 Soon™, and Exciting things after blah, but no useful information.

To be clear, I'm all for "Check out the new mech pack!" I'm good with that. They're a business, they need to make money, mechs make money, that's all good.

New mech packs: NOT A PROBLEM!

But.

Everything else tends to devolve to exactly what Bill said. "CW issue? Phase 3, soon[tm]." 4v4 CW missions? "Phase 3. Soon[tm]." They've been the same answers for several Town Halls.

It's frustrating. I wish we could get a concrete answer to at least one major thing per Town Hall: Release dates for a major feature, for example. Something more than "The same answer I gave you three months ago, with the same "soon" time frame."

I'd honestly sooner he did fewer town halls, and focussed on meatier answers, rather than frequent ones where nothing is actually said. But then, people would cry that there's no communication

[NextGame]

pls do this every town hall, it will save me from having to pay attention to them

You know me, I'm a white knight with the best of them.

But honestly? While I'm sure Bill meant that with a healthy dose of cynicism, compare this with the transcript.

I'm willing to bet a mech that he's spot on substantially more than he's wrong.

There's no doubt in my mind that Bill is feeling the disappointment that many people have with the game.

It's like a movie theme where that main character feels the world is messed up and that "all is wrong with the world", while the rest of its citizens don't know any better... kinda like the Matrix.

There might not be a light at the end of the tunnel, but for some... that is all there are holding onto for dear life with possibly misguided hope related to this game and its progress...

It is what it is.

I actually thought it was clever and pretty funny, and mirrored my thoughts when I read some of the questions people ask.

You only say that because you have a sense of humour.

Well, for a drinking game... it'll be a lost day.

I am not going to be my usual self and nitpick; I rather enjoyed that long monologue.

Errr, it's not a "wahhhh" thread. If anything, he's mocking the people posting the questions every bit as much as (if not a fair bit more than) PGI here =)

Funny, and at the same time, incredibly accurate

[Troutmonkey]

Wow, that took a while to read. Guess I can safely skip the next town hall.

[JediPanther]

Phase 3 Soon TM Buy newest shiny mech! Spend extra money for hero you should have gotten for paying for "standard" pack.

[MechaBattler]

To be fair. It often feels like we don't get very good answers or very interesting questions. The last one felt more like they were using it to promote the Marauder and Warhammer. Perhaps if we had a better way of selecting questions among the community beyond who gets like and what NGNG crew deem appropriate. Although at the same time. The well has been repeatedly poisoned by madbros who despise the game, but insist on imposing upon the rest of us with their bile.

Four hours, at a minimum, bro. Kinda like the opposite of the "three second Jenner."

Legitimately made me laugh at work.

Praise be to phase 3.

[Davers]

I...don't think I need to watch the Townhall. Thanks Bill.

[C E Dwyer]

Thank you Bill sincerely thank you.

After being so pissed off with the changes, refunding Origins, considering refunding the Marauder, Warhammer packs and just unistalling, this has really cheered me up.

By the time I got to
