I have to say this game is repetative,grindy even with premium time,lacks of content,have stupid tournaments(solo drop tournament in team game rly?),there are huge changes in game mechanics(yeah I am talking about you missiles) and I rly hate some game emchanics(Raven-3L some1?)

but

This game rocks and I love it bcuz it iks so fun to play around with Big Stompy Robots!I am able to spend here 10 hours per day and even more.

can you explain why you love this game? I kinda expected an explanation.
See when someone doesn't like the game and posts about it; the negative person's reasons are torn asunder and rendered meaningless. But when someone just states they love the game, they don't really require a lot of reasoning? Why the double standard...this is as bad as QQ-ing only inverted. kinda like -QQ...

note: or rather, why is a negative viewpoint scrutinized more so than a "positive" view point? whats the angle to letting one side off scott-free?

Nerf whining!

[Boymonkey]

Best thing you can do is stay away from the forums, so many people moaning for the smallest things.

Oh and I too love this game, why cos its mega cool and just plain simple fun pity the community isn't fun...when I first joined the community was much better.

Again I'm not a fan of 3rd person myself like OP, but as long as
types are kept away from each other, no mixing matching 1st and 3rd, i'll be happy.

but i feel most of the rage comes from the fact and, lets face it
the game is still very young, and the team is not as big as most would think.
yes things are broke but when only 2-3 people working on the issue at
a time things will take longer to get right.

as a legendary founder I've most defo got my moneys worth so far
and the patches just keep getting better,

what more can we ask... oh sh** i shouldn't of said that

Because usually the negative post can point to items 1 - 6 and say "YOW SUXXORZ, FIX IT NOW" and identify what is ruining their experience, but (in a thread such as this) enjoyment is more holistic and can't be pegged to just one thing, "WOW I LOVE MECHLAB"

The double standard comes from the fact that enjoyment doesn't have the burden of proof that a gripe does.

You see numerous threads like the one praising TD, where they take a specific feature/content item, that is similar to the specific rant threads.

This thread is the positive version of the ragequit that doesn't give a reason, just a middle finger.

[PainGod30]

Wow people on this forum with good graces? hahaha we'll fix that soon enough seriously though, welcome! glad to hear you enjoy the game. Honestly, outside of the typical trolls most of the rage you will encounter here is because people really love the game. Hope to see you in game sometime!

Well, I think the game has gotten much better over the past few months. And due to that, I have introduced several of my buds to the game. We all played MW games years ago, and I was secretly hoping this would be a great comeback for the franchise. I had my doubts for awhile, but now I am certain this will be a great game.
Cheers PGI, and thanks!

[mekabuser]

the battle mechanics are great..
What i imagined last night after a nice session was the return of collisions in conjunction with dfa.. with the best so far, awesome , video.. showing collisions, dfa, and melee.

I too, love the game...
What will make it epic for a long time is putting a huge amount of effort into the above features

[DegeneratePervert]

Of course we all love this game, that's why it frustrates us so and we get so emotional with it. We love it to death, and want it to succeed.

GRRRRRR SNORT GRIZZLE 3L! SPEW HATE DEVIL ANGRY LRM NERFBUFF! BUNCH OF NOOBS DISSATISFACTION! FREE P2W GREEDY DEVS!

There wasn't enough hate in this thread to be acceptable on this forum so i felt the need to bump it up.

I love this game too. It is the greatest Mechwarrior game ever! Always happy to see some positivity on here.

Fair enough.

Things I like, in no particular order:

1. Constructing mechs with different tactics in mind and then trying to make them work on the battlefield.
2. A good variety of mechs and weapons to choose from that seem to be mostly faithful to their Battletech roots (same goes for the mech selection).
3. The challenge of trying to control your mech effectively with regards to cover, enemy and friendly proximity, weapon ranges etc.. Much more complex than the usual FPS experience.
4. Good overall community. Fairly mature bunch and most are pretty helpful and friendly.
5. Nice and frequent content updates. A new mech every month? That's awesome. I played Darkfall for years and although it was an interesting game, man the dev team was so slow to act on anything or add any content, they make these guys look positively prolific.
6. Bright future with the clan stuff on the horizon.
7. Has never crashed on me.
8. Good graphics that run well.
9. Character progression is off to a good start in my opinion.

I could go on but that's a lot of the big things off the top of my head.

See ya on the battlefields and enjoy blowing me up,

Chris

Since they started tracking time, I have spent 22 hours engaged in mech on mech combat. I can honestly say I have never played a game this much. It has so much going for it. It really feels like the game is just getting better and better. I still have hope that the major imbalances will be addressed, and I can't wait to see CW.

[Khan Reaper]

Great post. I wander the forums occasionally, but just came off of a long break due to all of the negativity. I think that if there was absolutely no chance of your voice being heard in the forums, most people would embrace the game more for what it is and less for what they want it to be. I didn't even know there was an LRM problem last week because I was staying off of the forums. I just figured I needed to stay the hell away from those lurms a little better. And I did, and the game continued. Thanks for adding a positive post. I know I appreciate it.

Turtle hate big stompy 'bots! Turtle am very angry with PGI Team of Devs! Turtle kill PGI faces!

[malibu43]

I have spent way more time playing this game than I have in years. I have always been a flight sim enthusiast, but my joystick and trackIR have been collecting dust since August. I'm looking forward to CW and some additional game modes and maps at some point, but for now I'm still having a blast.

The forums, on the other hand, meh.

Does he do Threads? If so we can get him some on the side if you know what I mean, wink wink.

Had the best 2 pug matches to date just last night. Both on the Large Maps now that I think of it. Solid team work, informative, while limited, text chat mixed with everyone on the Team seeming to have had the same general thought. Let ME help US Win.

Good solid fun. Really good solid fun with Beers!

I am so with you!
I always try to stay away from rage posts. This tedious, boring, grindy game is so much fun. I mean it! I have not had so much fun in a game for years. I am confident the game will be really awesome once it is released.
