Let's say A LOT.

Seems like I should stop playing this game now and only come back in September...

Dear god, features are either developping at a slower pace than expected (collisions), or they've simply been completely shelved (ammo types).

I mean, the game is fun and all, but it's hard to stay really interested when most of the recent changes don't affect me (consumables) or simply **** me off. Seems like the devs aren't interested in making the MG, flamer and LB-X into decent weapons either...

Le Sigh...

yeah they're focusing on community warfare. game releases when CW is done. so thats why all this other stuff is after it

CW is a big project to be sure. New UI and 12v12 will be awesome to see when they drop.

And I can sort of see why ammo types are shelved for right now. The Federated Suns don't make the cool stuff until 3052, and giving the LBX the slug round removes any reason for the AC10 to be in game really.

I just don't get why we bother with AtD.

Here is what happens...either they say they are working on it, they won't be doing it, or it will happen after CW.

And most of the time I could have answered the questions before they did and come up with a fairly similar set of answers because it's predictable.

I dunno, seems like a giant circle jerk. They will never release important info on the forums. Haven't we learned that?

It's discouraging to see them answer the same question twice or pick then give something vague and with no or little information, which seems to happen every time

I would say that some features and other limitations have been beyond PGI's technical capacity to solve. Perhaps this is why we have seen a series of recruitment drives. Time will tell but I do worry that significant portions of the playerbase will tire and drop MWO for something else. The fact that the game is expensive too, should you decide to buy anything, will add to this possible trend.

We also keep asking the same stupid questions, which doesn't help any. And getting into details on something in development is never a good idea. Look at Peter Molyneux

haha, yeah I do love how people keep asking the same question repeatedly and they keep answering the same way.

The whole AtD thing bugs me, because people try to throw it out as some great form of communication that the devs are using. But it really isn't.

At this point I seem to think they bit off more than they can chew and now realize they made promises that they cant keep. At least not any time in the near future.
