Open Beta, Summer 2012
Community Warfare, Fall 2012
Clan Invasion, Winter 2012-Spring 2013

People love hacks and cheats, we all know this.
They have been setting up their anti-cheat/hack detecting suite.
They have been removing people and reasons, to just drop in with no armor, ammo or weapons.
They have been adding more mechs and maps. (ZOMG maps!? Yes, I still see some games with only 3 maps and they have been around 5 years).
No one ever states exactly what something will be, prior to it actually going out, as everyone will flame them for doing something different. Not everything will work as envisioned, I ASSUME, most of us know this.
They have been making strides to eliminate "lag shield" and hit detection, sure it gets bumpy once in awhile, but not nearly as bad as aiming 3 mechs ahead of your target with lasers.
The game is much more stable across the board. ( I recall having to restart the client after every 3 matches versus never, now)
To say they have not made any kind of progress is just ridiculous.
They have my support and will continue to have my support. I know they want better things, and I feel that they will do their best to have better things.

If the hard deadline is missed, the most responsible thing you can do is apologize and set another date (or a timeframe).
The issue is not that dates are missed... it's that PGI isn't responsive and admit to fault in a timely fashion. We can ignore all of those whines about how things don't end up on time (because poop happens), but as a responsible human being... not just a company, you have to own up to mistakes.
This is also why people like Karl Berg isn't roasted over the coals for the mistakes in the netcode (and other stuff). He tells it likes it is, apologizes, and strives to do something about it. I can't say the same for the some of the other PGI members who aren't as responsive as he is.
At this point, if they just came and leveled with us and explained the problems and delays, in "not PR legalese speak," I would at least respect that.
In a vacuum of information one is left to believe there is no information to be given.
And I refuse to further invest in this game until they at least show us what CW is going to look like.
I would even buy the Pheonix Pack and sit on it for 12 months until CW finally shows up, if that is the case, so long as I know what CW is going to be, how it is going to play.
Something, anything. Please, PGI, show us something.

PGI suffers from the "need to re-invent the wheel syndrome."
I wish PainGod had been in charge of this train.
Wreck.

just another mmorpg...well have fun, i´m done with those... and btw, what´s a lootfarming mmorpg got to do with a mechshooter? is this some nice try to point a gun towards PGI with a game that´s not remotely considered a "competing product" ?
also i like how people hype and hype one game after the other based upon the same promises over and over again...what was the last one before titanfall? GW2? Firefall? don´t remember, there were so many "i´ll leave MW for that game"...
on topic:
CW will come. I want it too, but i also want it to be GREAT so the last thing i want is, that they hurry things especially in this regard. i WANT them to take their time. Information about it? oh yes, i am eagerly waiting, and it´s hard to wait. BUT they will give us infos, when they are ready for publicity. are things being delayed? yes. and this is pretty normal, ´specially for a small studio like this. but we had that topic up and down already... some people appreciate the hard work the team does, and some just want their pretty toys,like they grow upon trees.
it´s simple... play the game, or don´t. when new content comes, enjoy it,or don´t.
no company (game industry or not) will show you details about a new product before they have a very polished model for presentation. other than rough concepts you get nothing, and the rough concepts we have...
i´ll wait until they deliver...and well, if they deliver c**p, then i have a reason to bash them and being less willing to pay them for that ^^

Paul havent updated the weapon balancing thread, and the others in front of CW are just laying up there with their mouth shut...
In my business, if I get a contract, they pay me to deliver at a day at X time X kind of product, this guys are way better than me about business; ppl is getting ripped of their money without any real information on when they will deliver a finished product.
Well if they wanna be suckers and send their money, let them. I havent spent a dime on this game in ages. Now Im happy i didnt spend it on this game knowing whole 3PV thats GOING to happen eventually, on top of all the other crap thats going on. Europa Universalis 4, Rome 2, and Saints Row 4 here i come!
