I know you're PGI Defense Force and all, but uhh.. that ain't an announcement. At all.

Nope. More like "Retroactive Sycophancy-Fueled Spin Control™."

Actually, I just now saw on their Twitter page that they are delaying whatever special thing it was until tomorrow, and the NGNG Video they released today is not the special thing they said they would be releasing.

So... the Tourmaline video is not the special thing, even though they released it when they said they'd release the special thing... meh.

It's called promotion. It's what business do to get new customers. It's easy for people to just hit a share, like, or retweet button and spread the news.

The news ends up on this site regardless.

The news can end up on those sites just as easily after release here.

Well, this thread is going downhill.

If you want to discuss something, please do so in a manner that can be used as a discussion-piece. Simply posting "PGI is incompetent" or "here we go again" does not move this discussion forward. If you think this thread is not worth posting in, then please don't post. If you want to discuss something about bugs, then please visit a thread about bugs.

This thread is about how they will (now) be releasing some special thing tomorrow on their facebook and twitter pages. Here are the links to their pages:

Retracted. No surprise there. Professional much?

I get the feeling this thread is rapidly approaching lock. Gotta sweep all the blunders under the carpet after-all. The bulging, lumpy, stained, and sometimes moving carpet.

Try this: http://mwomercs.com/...deo/RvOqe3dHMuQ

There's a new Video produced by NGNG to review the Tourmaline Desert Map, and they posted a link to it on FaceBook just before 8AM pacific time.

That video just made me think of something: why, in this battlemech deprived period of strife where 'mechs are supposed to be rare, is there an Atlas just sitting next to a Hunchback in a crashed Dropship? Wouldn't those have been salvaged long ago?

we're doing this in hopes it shames PGI into making some sort of statement to explain why this has happened.

Well, it is a horror planet on the rim with gusts of glass powder sand and those mechs are crazy old and eroded. It doesn't take too much of a leap to think that the salvage is either totally forgotten or not worth the cost and danger of collecting it.

oh shiiiiiiii mods about to blow their censor ship load all up in this thread.

Quick guys ABORT ABORT.

by the way, when pgi can't manage to do basic things like announcements on a schedule they are setting two hours prior to that point how earth can you expect people not to comment on that spectacular incompetence. That kind of thing gets people in seriously ******* hot water in any industry which has standards (not the gaming one because gamers for the most parts are idiots who accept what ever gets shoveled into their faces)

How do you think it makes PGI look to the rest of the world?
