CW is nice and get better.
We have pugs match and team match where you have mixed technology.

But we miss one of the heart of the Battletech Universe.

We need a Solaris Arena damn it!
New mechs are nice even if overpriced.

But we definitly need a New Game Mode.
We need a Solaris game mode with multiple unlockable option!

You start with just light battles, and after a few round you unlock medium and heavy. Then Assault.

Then you can have a sort of "Leaderboard" where people can use the chassis they went in a FFA and progress in a sort of giant rooster where they can see there position and try to get the highter.

We needed 12man queue and noone is playing it right now. Are you sure this will be that different?

[JohnnyWayne]

What I need in this game is a skill based game mode with small scale battels and a ranking system to stay engaged. 1v1 - 4v4 and a FFA 12 man mode.

I totally agree we need solaris.

Waiting for CW 4v4 mode... That should revive the game a bit..

That mode will only allow lights and mediums. Totally the most played classes in MWO. I don't see that happen.

"We need" and "ASAP" are generally to strong indicators of BS.

Which is exactly why you wrote them in your post.

You can have many more modes but first that would split the community een further and second there is only a limited number of tactics one can employ in 4v4 and not suck terribly. Niche for niche players I fear.

[JohnnyWayne]

if you'd build it right, solaris would be the place for the competetive crowd. Niche? Not sure about that. Maybe the rest of the game suddenly would be.

Just like how NBT is more niche players..

4v4 in CW should be a good distraction though those who have gotten sick of 12v12 game play.

Solaris is a Free For All mode.
With specific arena map.
Heck, all the FFA battle should be in Solaris, place it along the 3 current mode and that's it. You can activate it or desactivate it.


But we need that map.

A vocal minority needed a 12man mode as well as the poeple in need of numerical superiority.
But the Sheep will not come to the Wolves and the Wolves have no fun hunting other Wolves ever!

Solaris would work if done right and work the long run!

+1 for Solaris arena maps. Like this but way better because it isnt silly cars its silly mechs. And of course alot more shooting.

I believe they said somewhere that Solaris is on the table, but it isn't a priority and will be awhile down the pipe.
+1 for Solaris

They would need to make larger maps for a Solaris mode as 24 people hiding would require quite a lot of room.

Or... You know?
Just 12 people in the Arena? Just like it is usually the case in Solaris Arena in the FFA?

I apologize beforehand because I just can't contain myself:

[Johny Rocket]

Yes PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE

Appears some posters don't know how Solaris works. No stinkin teams in Solaris.12 go in, only 1 comes out, the King of the Arena.

They have to get the guy who did the original Duncan Fischer.

Well, there are sheep, and there are Black Sheep!

The last thing we need is the playerbase getting divided even more

What they need to do right now is make every match that gets played count towards CW

And they need to add the union dropship defense gamemode to CW so CW doesnt completely die out
