I have a question, and I'm sure it will sound like I'm just qqing or trolling, but I legitimately want to know.

Is there a single thing in this game that is implemented in the way it was initially planned to be?

Nah.

They got the money from the "core audience" already. No need to cater to them. Cornering a niche market isn't a viable strategy anymore. It's all about getting EVERYONE to buy your game now.

Instead they take the money from MWO founders, dump a significant amount of it into two other mediocre games, and start looking for ways to "expand their audience". Except the mainstream audience isn't really interested in MWO in the first place, even if they eventually add the revolutionary 6th person view.

I would have thought after about 9 months we'd be playing something a little more involved than "capture the red square(s)". Especially since that PC gamer article stated the game would be about more than running to a point.

Yet here we are.

this OP was made under the premise that the original plan is the right way.

but if that were they way we'd be P2W as of last patch.

Are you implying coolant flush was part of the original plan that they laid out?

I don't know. I think many people are not mad about 3PV or Coolant Flush themselves, but the fact that PGI lied about them. I have a sneaking suspicion it may not be entirely PGI's fault, but maybe IGP.

I doubt it, but the game is better for it.

Now they need to focus on getting some CW and new gameplay types going.
