At this time I don't trust PGI at all.

This. Only voted a plain "No" because there's no "I trust'em about as far as I can drop-kick a full-grown bull elephant" option.

On the other hand, this general section of this forum is terrible much of the time, so I can't blame the devs for not posting in it much anymore.

didn´t vote... weither or not i trust pgi´s promises is my own buisness... even if i´m not content with some of the latest decisions, polls like this won´t help the general communication between them and us... you can disagree if you want, but thats my opinion... oil never erased fire too well...

Dude, in a way this is a kind of feedback.
If they can't handle feedback, positive or negative, in a professional way, they are not cut out for the job, and will be out of business, rather sooner than later.

And to be honest, this seems to be one major point. Un-professionalism. They seem to take things too personal. And from what I can gather there also seems to be at least one major obstinate and borderline ignorant/arrogant element in the dev team.

Trust is something slowly built and easily lost.

THe forums have gotten progressively worse due to PGIs crappy communication and backtracking on everything.

Nicely biased poll options. Work for the GOP?

Hmmmmmmm..... Lemme think.

Do I trust PGI, who has indeed overreached, been forced to backtrack (by both community and publisher and occasionally netcode reality), tried to find a balance between f2p and charity game, occasionally stuck a foot in it's mouth, etc?

Orna community notorious for nerdrage at any perceived issues, full of QQ, takes comments totally out of context, interprets them in negative light no latter what, spreads rumors, half truths and innuendos as gospel (still waiting for that data showing IGP using founders money on tactics) and when calls on it, falls into name calling and herd mentality, where no matter what is actually said or done, it's always damn the facts and follow the lead of whichever wannabe internet anarchist shouts loudest.

For this community to question or doubt ANYONES honesty or integrity is the pot calling the kettle black. Get over yourselves.

Made my day, thank you.

Sorry, to actually add my two cents instead of useless posting.

Joined the game 2 months ago, started reading the forums 1 month ago.

I find the game to be close to the old mechwarrior 3 game my friends and I LAN'd for years. My biggest issue is the "social" aspect. I am not a huge forum user, but have found these forums helpful in many ways. The majority of posts that I see however are complaints.

The issue shouldn't be trust, we all have a deep love of this franchise, but PGI, IGP are just in it for the money. The real issue is are you going to keep paying for the game?

[StandingInFire]

Seriously some of you guys need to get a grip and not purposefully misconscrew facts to bash the devs.

That was just 1 week ago now, its the weekend, the last patch was very buggy and likely occupied most their time trying to fix the bugs and dealing with the fallout.

From the conversation, you can see with the misinterpretation/bad reporting was in regard to people thinking you need a premium account to play with people in certain CW stuff, when what PGI actually meant was in regards to certain CW rewards (MC rewards specifically).

The Devs are people just like you when you have to give a bunch of interviews not perfectly forming every sentence is not a big deal. Unless something is posted in an official announcement take that info with a grain of salt that it may not be 100% accurate.

Really. Stop making stupid polls already and let them do whatever they want.

I'm thinking that going open beta was a really really horrible idea.

Look Bryan, we want to know how you are going to commercialize CW. Everything you have told us you have already told us before.

To the community, if you want to know where we are going and what to expect, just think of the ways you would set it up so that you can maximize revenue from the community. It really is that simple if you want to see where PGI are going. Russ is, after all, a 'business guy'. Still, out of the two of them, Russ and Bryan, I am not sure who is the organ grinder and who is the monkey.

Alpha quality games that charge money for items and had founder programs make for ****** open betas. Yup.

No, they have thrown the Founders money out of the window and have done nothing againts hackes and cheats.
Even eorst is they have broken CBT rules with their stupid heat system.

I find it bizarrely coincidental that PGI's "publisher" IGP (Gee whiz, Mortimer, IGP is PGI backwards)
only came into existence 1 year and 9 months ago... Just after the end of the Smith Tinker deal...

Trust, not an effin' chance.

sokitumi, on 07 April 2013 - 03:29 AM, said:

of course you're 100% right but i think PGI has this forum firewalled from their offices now so it's no use.

This kind of stuff is why this thread is being Jettisoned. PGI "doing nothing" about cheats/hacks, "wasting" founder's money, "breaking" the Heat System, the "IGP/PGI Is The Same People" Conspiracy, them ignoring the forums... This thread is not constructive.

I trust that they'll do what they need to in order to make the game a success.

They don't owe me anything, and I don't owe them anything. There's no trust issues either way.

I agree fully. I can choose to play the game they develop, or I can choose to move on and not play. I trust they care about the game, that is obvious. If you hate the devs/games that much...go start youre own company and develop games you like. Bashing the dev's or their commitment accomplishes noting that makes the game better, but it does make people look "pety and childish".

I for one contributed money, and will proubly do again because I WANT the game to progress and be realized fully, that takes money...their not working for free, and they have bills to pay

Indeed, personally I would vote no because I don't just trust developers. This isn't my first video game ever. Everyone loves getting exactly what they want but not everyone wants the same things. I think I'd MW4 were developed this way it might never have been released.

Granted a few things have seemed questionable but EA is still in business and they get away with lots of weird stuff.

Unfortunately you are not in a position to make the call as to whether we feel PGI are ripping us off or not. Yes, you can move threads but you obviously are not in the know about a great many things. A lot of us know fully well the relationship between IGP and PGI and who has sold what rights to who. We know this because it was told to us by PGI very early on. We also know that PGI and IGP blame one another to deflect criticism and that is on the public record mate.
