I was willing to tolerate all the hipster bullsh1t with Paul being 'a troll,' and Garth's uselessness and how he spills spaghetti all over the place. It was something I expect from a new company, you know? They have to be allowed to make mistakes, test the waters. Yes, even when Garth went on the dumbest posting spree of all time, with the 3 second jenners, and the I'D LIKE TO SEE YOUR GAME!-saga.

But it's been quite the long time, and now I'm not interested in their stupditity anymore. I don't want to be told one thing, and find out another through third party digging. This damocles sword of 3rd person is making everything unpleasant. Revolting. That they just come on here, snark, and then hide on reddit for a few days? It makes me look like a professional. I want them to act like adults.

If they can't, they should be replaced by people who can.

I miss the olden days when I could dismiss all of your posts as useless ridiculous trolling. Except for the part when I figured out that underneath the fur and fangs you've been right about practically everything that has ever happened with this game, and because you have, dare I say, near-autistic levels of knowledge about this IP and its various incarnations.

I wish you could be wrong for a change but it doesn't seem to happen too often.

Laser state rewind, raven hitbox fixed, more maps, missiles actually do damage to legs, etc. They broke missile damage but we're getting a hotfix in a few hours. Also, if you hate third person so much, I'm not sure why you're going off to ArmA, where it's used heavily.

Laser state rewind you say, a partial fix, a fix to 1 type of weapon not all weapons so not really a fix per say.
Raven hit boxes LOL again only a partial fix to a mech that is so badly borked due to its badly thought about weapon/Ecm loadout.
WOW 2 whole new maps in what 8 months, at that pace within 16 months we will have another 4 maps cant wait..
With Arma i know what im getting, im not been told one thing and getting another or being blatantly lied to, besides in ARMA i can host or goto Servers that have settings im comfortable playing with do i have those options here? geez dont go compare Arma with MWO you may realise what an inferior game you are curently defending..
But lets take the posive points you mention, a partial fix to weapons and a borked mech plus 2 maps in 8 months thats the progress? And you mention a hotfix to what exactly in missiles? is the Splash damage for all misiles been fixed? last i heard it was next month before a hard fix was being looked at, so what exactly are they fixing or f..king has anyone actually said?

PGI, adding crap to the game that wasn't asked for or needed since the game started. I have very little faith in the stuff they roll out now since this last patch was a gem with LRM's. Dunno how their test team missed that one. Third person? Dunno how many forms of no can be said before they get it through their thick skulls. This game is pretty crap as far as quality and polish goes, they just keep on throwing out more stuff thinking that'll compensate for it.

Indeed. When I first started lurking the forums, I too thought 'Hey a 4channer AND a troll'. Then he went and got R&R canned and I was forever a fan.

I wish I was wrong, too, but faith conspires against it. It's no fun being the Nostradamus of the only truly good game of your favorite robot franchise.

These are the same people who outright told me they have no idea how to change my registered e-mail, so I was **** out of luck.

They have, no idea how, to do something so incredibly basic in any game, or WEBSITE for that matter.

Its easy to be negative and focus on all the broken stuff but internal testing does not always fail. Buying of cockpit dingdongs and colours works just as it should and proves that the devs can do excellent, non-broken work.

Ah Mechwarrior - the franchise that is too nerdy in its original vision to be marketable and yet has become too popular not to be snatched up by big name corporations and whored out. This series much like Star Wars will be in "mediocre limbo" for eternity. It's best to just forget it about now if you value your sanity.

In 500 years when some other civilization is studying ours and looking at all the products branded "Mechwarrior" they will wonder why anyone ever cared about such a mediocre piece of art.

Site admin's gotta eat you know. Why don't you buy a new forum tag, then they'll have enough money to be able to change registered emails.

You actually have a dedicated circle-jerk group that follow you around and likes your posts. This is hilarious.

Mediocre you say? over 30 years of art, gameplay, lore, design is mediocre? I think you know nothing about Battletech.

What truth? He keeps blowing his own horn, stroking his ego, saying exactly what everyone else has already said and proclaims like he's an actual asset to this game. It's just too silly.

Epic thread is epic.

It's scary times when I find some of the best posts on the forum being made by people I normally despise. We're all rallying against you on this one PGI, ignore us at your peril.

Once this is over, man, you need to see someone. That's not an appropriate level of reaction to someone with whom you disagree over a computer game.

Everything will be fine if you just buy that Golden Cat ornament and ask your friends to do the same.
