well you guys have heard me on my soapbox before, and some have said "patience grasshopper" and i got lots of patience, especially when it comes to a game i dig.

but we've gotta have a come to terms on the map issue. i mean, i want the whole community to get behind me on this one because i really feel it can be the life or death of this game.

it's already been stated that PGI is a small company. Fine. I can dig. But I do know that a group of people can "put some stuff to the side" and focus on one thing, and that one thing to me is maps. Man I love this game, I really do. But I must have gotten Tourmaline 15 times last night with sprinklings of alpine and a river city night. I think i got forest day once.

i actually got up and watched network tv! i was so bored of the maps. so bored.

and i'm telling you guys i am a hardcore gamer! watching t.v., network t.v. at that, is the LAST thing i want to do if i'm not working or sleeping or eating.

i can put up with some tedium but this map thing, gah.

i just want some maps where the temperature is neutral and they aren't massive. i'm a simple man, and i think the bulk of the SILENT majority are the same. Just give us more maps PGI they don't have to be uber jaw dropping fancy. just some buildings to maneuver around, some hills, some bases. and just let us enjoy normal temperatures as well, it seems maps are getting too extreme, super cold so lasers are great, or super hot so lasers suck.

i just want some palm trees and nice tall grass with a couple trees here and there ya know what i'm sayin?

come on people help a brother out. vote

It doesn't bother me. We get new maps when we get them, this is beta, you didn't pay for the maps. You don't have to play the game, you can go watch tv until they release new content. However, your complaint about smaller maps tells me you are not a Mechwarrior fan. If you want smaller maps go play gears of war. I'll be enjoying a nice round of Alpine like a real Mechwarrior.

P.S. If caustic valley kills your lasers... find a better build. My laser boat works just fine there.

you do that.

[Tezcatli]

More involved game modes!

Like an actual base to attack or defend. With turrets and fortifications. Or one where buildings spawn conventional forces, like a giant tower defense game.

[Sephlock]

Bugfixes first please.

No

[von Pilsner]

Last week I would have agreed, but bug-fixing is top of my list right now.

[FupDup]

I'd prefer that the various underpowered variants/weapons/equipment in the game get buffed and that an assortment of bugs get fixed. Maps are nice too but I can deal with having just a few maps if the mechanics on each individual map were better.

They should be throwing out a couple of maps a month. Even if they are off the wall ideas on some of them, we can test what works and what doesn't.

The very least they should copy is the original TT ones (over a larger area) as that would at least get half a dozen new ones.

[Stoicblitzer]

the standard excuse when one issue is brought up like this: different teams.

Well you'd probably have to create maps around those game modes. But it would be interesting to see physical bases in existing maps. But the way they're going. We probably will see a map before we see a new game mode : /

I want a playable game that doesn't constantly lag or crash, wheres my poll option?

[A banana in the tailpipe]

New maps should trump all other production. If they wanted to make real money they would sell the maps, not mechs.

[Z0MBIE Y0SHI]

I'd really like a lavender color.

[Sybreed]

I want balance before more maps/mechs

[Utilyan]

You know what I thought this thread was about.......



Its the urbanmech mystery.............. Caustic valley is shape of a brain..........frozen city is a heart.......

if you look off to the bottom right looks like a skeleton dude......

Only urbanmech can save us!



Edit: Could also be this guy....

This is a thread about vanity lava lamps right?

[TehSBGX]

I want new maps but I also Want Weapons Balance, new mechs and New Weapons. Holding off on Vanity Items for a while seems like a good idea honestly. I'm more focused on gameplay than having fuzzy dice.
