Agreed - I'm tired of attempting to sync with other teams.

Yep. No team training rooms, no lobby, borked ELO system preventing sync drops with the team you need to fight; No way in hell anyone can pursue any kind of organized competition.

Get it together PGI.

2 hrs of failed syncs

give us a lobby pgi, you've had 8 months to work on it. we told you back before you implemented phase ONE matchmaking that this is stupid and we need a lobby, but you decided you'd waste 4 months with bandaid matchmakers that you admit are only placeholders

get your **** together ffs

Has it occurred to you to play against who you get? Synch droppers don't exactly earn much sympathy for 'the cause' when everyone is getting pissed off at loosing a bunch of guys to 'lol, synchfail'.

And no, I won't believe you're talking about synching in 8mans because there's not enough teams playing 8mans for it to be that difficult.

Crying wont help and sitting in the necks of the devs just makes you look like little children (I bet most of you are). Let them do their jobs. Stop bothering, you mongoloids! Doesn't matter if they had 9 months or 10 years or whatever. It's not your place to tell them how to work...If you think you can do better than them, get a job as programmer...oh wait...you are not good enough.

I have to laugh at this thread many of us tried to persuade PGI 2 1/2 years ago to put in a lobby system like the old MSN gamming zone with live chat as you can see they wont. So many that once ran the league are gone I would say 90% of the old MechWarrior community and players are gone from MWO now. Why pay and support a game that ids tactically static and boring after 100 games and lacks any social atmosphere. So many of us Old Guard have tried to understand why PGI will not let lobbies happen I can only conclude they had a bad experience in the past in NBT or MWL as players since they claim to have played past MechWarrior games. Or they cannot see the benefit of allowing the community to grow and have some control of the game.PGI to me takes the path of give me money and I will gladly give you a mech next Tuesday approach instead of a long term approach to community growth and longevity.

I'm blaming most/all of the people in that UI thread if it doesn't come out all nice. That's the only serious thread PGI is taking feedback from.

I'm just hoping there's something cool to do before the "1 year after open beta" date. Right now, the expectations are just at an all time low for me.

lobbies basically fix everything. you can see your opponents, and if you get roflstomped you have only yourself to blame. units can also arrange organized drops which helps 3rd party competitions, something that is essential to any online game's longevity, and opposite of what PGI seems to want in their unending efforts to sabotage its own community and monopolize gameplay
