^^ That is exactly my point, those saying the clans haven`t experienced the IS yet are fatally wrong. It is in fact merely US that have not experienced the clans yet. B)

Said widespread knowledge and the unification of the houses vs the clans will happen ain a few months when the Wolf`s Dragoons spill the beans B)

As such, it would not surprise me one bit to see the first "official" and "solid" clan announcements /information on sometime this winter /next spring..

From http://www.sarna.net...lf%27s_Dragoons

"In 3051, during a lull in the Invasion, Jaime Wolf called a conference on Outreach. All the heads of the various Inner Sphere houses and several mercenary leaders were invited. It was at the start of this conference that Jaime Wolf revealed the true origin of the Dragoons: They were originally a part of Clan Wolf and a scout force for the Clans, which were, in turn, revealed to be the descendants of the Star League Defense Force. Until then, the Dragoons had not met the Clan invaders on the battlefield, having been held in reserve by their employer, House Davion, who made good use of their expertise to gather intelligence on the Clans and their invasion."

And why do we have to read this somewhere else than here?

Why dont they tell us first on our own turf?

Pretty useless coms here i think.

I'm a little curious as to how this hasn't stirred up more discontent.

The only reason I'm playing this is for clan tech. Now I have to wait for a year? Slow development is slow. Ugh.

This game is going to have serious competition for my gaming time when Pathfinder Online open beta launches. PGI is gonna have to impress me before then. They need to step up their development pace, or I'll be gone by the time the Clans get here. (If they don't fix some glaring issues I might be gone before the Flea gets here)

Dunno; replacing a D&D clone's combat engine with a economic based engine doesnt sound what Id call fun

Because they dont care about their own forums. Not enough of the playerbase uses them to listen to them.

when asked this in the third person thread:

Bryan, please answer this honestly. I have seen 2 polls on this topic and they have been OVERWHELMINGLY against 3rd person. Why are you guys so stuck on this when clearly the players (by majority) don't want it?


(mind you it was about a poll where the results were 5000 to 100 against)
the reply was:

Honest answer.

The analysis on those who voted, showed that the majority of votes came from a very narrow demographic of our player base. And while they represent some of core players, they did not necessarily represent the opinion of the general user base. The majority of our players never visit, post, or read the forum content, so the poll could be considered weighted in favour of a specific demographic.

Since the majority of players who have an issue with 3rd person come generally from the core players, we elected to address this issue via this forum post to collect all of the concerns and ideas that this group faces or has with 3rd person.


Ppl have to remember that those birds in the bush out there are far more interesting than the birds in the hand that PGI already has.
They prove this every time they release news everywhere but here, For instance:

If it did it would be called a misquote and the pgi defenders would be smearing the author's name insinuating that he did it deliberately.

6 months after release.. best news i've heard since MWO line went into open beta..May it ever stay there..

I'm surprised that people are shocked that clan tech will be bought..

As scarlet blade just introduced a pair of black panties with a red bow ingame for $200, which have zero playing bonus (god only know how many totally sad people have actually bought them.).

Imagine how much a madcat is going to cost anyway :D

still now there is plenty of time to add a victor into the line up, far more inportant than some poxy clan tech :P

Ohh and can we have it in pink please :lol:

Its because devs (of all games) are far to busy trying to be trendy, tweating and putting things up on face book to read the forums they created for their own games :D

Edit noticed 'facebook" is reading thread and waves "give us back the devs" :P

Looks like i have not many to do anymore in mwo beside of playing the only mechs i like from the IS.
Have Atlas, Huchback, Catapult, Cataphract mastered and sad that i dont like any of the announced upcomming Mechs.
Soooo looks like the only left to do is farming endless C-Bills for Clans..... if they buyable for C-Bills.

....damn i want my Mad Cat, Vulture, Thor, Loki, Stone Rhino etc. etc.

Sadly, there are those that not only let them off the hook, but they apologize for PGI, and fight tooth and nail here on the forums defending the questionable decisions made. It's really sad. There was so much potential and so many BT/MW starved adults with cash to spend that PGI's questionable practices have either driven or is driving away.



I'm one of them, got back into Arma 2 and now 3 and having a blast, and had a look at Falcon BMS. Got fed up with the train of lies and self grandeur from certain members of PGI instead of honesty and transparency, which would solve SO MANY problems with the old guard bunch. But now we are a "minority" so i'm guessing they dont need our money.
