before they aborted the boards someone used to make a nice thread b4 each patch outlining what might be in the patch..
are these still made? i searched but even GD is such a garbled mess I cant find anything..
anyone know?

[HighlandCoo]

Find it in General Discussions > Upcoming Features.

Expect a few new mechs, some insufficient tweaks to weapons and no further info about anything else.

*sigh*

God I am ******** today.

tnks dudes.. want 12v12 ....

[Sybreed]

a Quickdraw, a 60 ton heavy that can hold as many as 4 PPCs!

[HighlandCoo]

No 12v12, no UI improvements, no new game modes, no new maps, no new items and as usual - not even any news about "Community Warfare" which personally I'm starting to think is vaporware.

A few tweaks and cosmetics they can sell for in game gold.

*Sigh*

The last time they said they had a "big announcement", it turned out to be a screenshot of Canyon Map.

I'm not holding my breath.

See what you did there!

Although, (taking that idea way too seriously) good luck with that. Someone might be able to put 3 in there and still remain viable, but 4 would be a complete joke.

Maybe I'm a glutton for punishment, but I'm actually excited about the Quickdraw. It has the potential to be the fast striker I've wanted for a while. My Dragon is good, but the low firing position on the arms, the huge CT, and the lack of JJ hold it back a little.

Well, at least we can fully expect a very punctual friday sale.....cause we all know those are priorities high and above balanced gameplay.

You guys must not have much to look forward to in life, eh? Go outside, smell the flowers... MW:O shouldn't be giving you honest disappointment.

4 ppc is very viable. Its what i rock in my dragon. nothing like a 90 KPH flanking alpha.

I look very much towards the Quickdraw though. It has way better hardpoints, and from the looks, better hitboxes. It might not be able to run an XL very well though, time will tell.

If you've been a fan of the battletech universe since you were a kid, and you've been looking forward to a decent mechwarrior game for 10 years, then yes, honest disappointment is a naturel consequence of not having any of your expectations brought to fruition.

I like being outside and I like playing MWO. If it's raining outside, I'm honestly disappointed. If MWO sucks, I'm honestly disappointed.

Nothing weird about that.

Fair enough. I hate to see so much potential squandered. Life is so short and it could be another 5-10 years before another dev gives MW a try.

Meh, there are other things in our lives, but any BT based game will have a special place just because I've played it for so long with so many friends.

Honestly, true wisdom is not to have any expectations at all. But if you can't do that, having low expectations is the next best thing, especially when there's a track record like PGI's involved.

Hot slow dragon is hot and slow

Honestly, if it loses its LT/RT very often and can't take an XL very well, then that just means the hitboxes are laid out a little better. Combined with appropriate defensive movement, should make it a big improvement.
