Quake 3 and TF2: Hat Edition are over Doom? Really? Quake 3 and TF2 are both good games, but LOL.

MWO shouldn't even be on the list. It's a great game, but there are hundreds of better "shooter" games. MWO isn't even the best... MECHWARRIOR game.

First of please excuse the format of my post I cant seem to hit the Enter key to drop to a new line...Lets forget comparing MWO to other games, lets just look at its points and see where we end up....Graphics- Not bad but certainly not outstanding, and the texture bug every other game gives it a big minus (unsatisfactory)....Networking - just terrible, people from everywhere just getting dropped not a single game where several people just get disconnected (unsatisfactory).... Content- 4-5 maps, not counting night maps as they are not really different, to few, most to small, no damage to buildings or environment, no gravity and only one where heat has a real affect.. Mechs, to few are really viable so you see a small percentage being used (unsatisfactory). Bugs- WAY WAY to many some have been ingame since CB (unsatisfactory)... Role warfare, WHATS that? (unsatisfactory). Weapons Balance- ROFL (unsatisfactory). Matchmaker/ELO- err what can I say? does it even work IMO it doesn't and sync dropping is a joke so (unsatisfactory) CW/Clans- err maybe someday, maybe perhaps lets hope, so far (unsatisfactory) P2W- headed down that road (unsatisfactory). Devs interaction with players.....(unsatisfactory). Matchmaking chat loby-non existent..(unsatisfactory). I beter stop there me thinks before I get so diisgrunted with this whole thing I will just uninstall, but you get the picture. In the list of top 25? is today April 1st ?

I'm pretty sure you said that unironically. I'm sure the cultural ignorance of the BT community would illicit more shame were that not a foreign concept to it.

If you are looking towards hip-hop to find your 'culture' .....well, I honestly don't even know how to respond.

Sure you do, you're responding with childish ignorance born out of a lack of understanding, likely driven by nerdish isolationism and an obsessive need to label and find class structures in other things. Probably because you've been placed into them and mocked for it your entire life.

It's kind of a vicious circle. It's why the most vocal opponents of twilight fans tend to wear fedoras.

Any "Greatest FPSes of all time" list that doesn't start with Quake 1... you know.. first true 3d engine, first true multiplayer FPS, first with client-side prediction (quake-world anyone?), first with mods that spawned many straight up games (team fortress, counter-strike).....


Baby gamers are so cute with their non-gaming *****.

Man, don't blame other people for not liking games like you do.. I was doing maps in DEU (if you have no idea what it is, google it..if you still have no idea what it is, I will call you baby gamer), in Build.. I remember soooo old games when these were new.. I loved video gaming.. I loved FPS games..yet..I still never liked Quake 1..yes.. it was another Carmack revolution in engine development .. but hell.. Duke Nukem 3D was much more fun at this time anyway

What a joke. Tell your journalists and editors to lay off the kool-aid PC-Gamer.

For someone who seems to be trying way too hard to 'enlighten' the rest of us......you sure do seem angry. Maybe you need to listen to a little less rap music, it's full of anger and hatred, at least that's what Hannity told me.

Wait so this game that we all spend soooo much time complaining about so that we can have it fixed and balanced got good press?

The type of press that may even help them get possibly more cash or better or faster completion times for things and this is an issue?

Do you want a game that works or do you just want to cry about why it doesn't?


Would you prefer no press or bad press that would hurt the state of the game even more so than slow dev reaction times and bad balance depending on your playstyle?

We all are here because at the end of the day WE LIKE THIS CONCEPT AND WANT IT TO WORK!!!

I don't care who MAY HAVE payed whom.

At the end of the day all it will do is bring us newer players who will never even read this because I assure you it will be modded into the dirt because that's bad press and you can't have it both ways ladies and gents.

It is amazing how when the news slings some BS at you that isn't in your favor your reaction is the same as when they do it in your favor.

TO COMPLAIN.......

We all complain. <---- I am currently doing it now

I do it you do it but to complain about something that can possibly help you seems just like some of you are miserable and no matter what you will always be so.

Game perfect? NOPE

But it is and will always be in that magazine as number 19 whether you like it or not and no amount of complaining is going to get that ranking nerfed.


There are too many things that need to be fixed to whine about something good lol.

I see the arguement as to who belongs there etc but the whole "balanced video game journalism" and "back room deals" thing is just funny.

If the possibility that PGI or anyone else may or may not have had a hand in influencing their own ranking comes as a surprise to you then ask yourself this?

Why so many alpha cheese poptart builds? Because thats what works. Same as that ranking that's just what works.

I am not going to even breach the morality issue junk like "what about murder does that" "just work" because this isn't nearly that drastic and because at the end of the day NONE of us can prove a thing about that ranking so it is academic.

( Yes that was a premptive strike to the moral flamers who will feel the need to attack it anyway they can because no one [myself included] likes to be told nicely to **** and play. )

At the end of the day this isn't a game to PGI it is a business and good press is good for business.

Whatever you did PGI do as good a job on fixing ingame stuff as you do handling the press and we are good.

EDIT:

You want a good topic to complain about that will possibly have a negative effect on the game and in fact already has in the forums?

KOREANESE one of the if not the best pilot in the game quit today because he does not trust the gameplay balance abilities of the devs. <-----This keeps happening DEAD GAME

Ghost Badger, on 06 June 2013 - 09:38 AM, said:

Someone posted in ATD 40 that Koreanese quit MWO because of the poor weapon balance.

Anyone know if there is truth to this statement?

PEEFsmash, on 06 June 2013 - 10:53 AM, said:

Yep, he is in my unit (DV8) and he quit because he does not trust PGI to make reasonable balance changes. I wish he didn't because he was the most well known (and probably best) player playing MWO, but he couldn't take it anymore, and moved on to a different game.

It is a huge loss, and a huge failing for the devs. The fact that they haven't been reaching out to the competitive community to help them balance has shown in their extremely poor feel for balance. With just a little help from us (and we would do it for free of course), PGI would have a great idea of what is too good and what isn't good enough from the players who can actually aim, work together as a team, position themselves, etc. Balancing for the loudest posters on the forums (who are probably bad) will never work.

Good Press+ Real Changes <------- This keeps happening we may have these forums to complain on for years to come.

Why do you hate TF? I haven't played UT2004 so maybe that might be better, but even if it is better that doesn't instantly make TF bad.
