When in a conversation (and your last several posts quoted my conversation -near as I could tell) it is generally assumed you were referring to the others in the conversation, and as your insults did not match the others in said conversation (as you agreed with their posts) I was left to assume you were referring to me..
I now recognize that you may have shifted topics into another conversation, but if so then it would have been polite (common courtesy here) to quote the person you were calling blind/ignorant so that THEY would know you were calling them so.

As you provide no evidence toward your "Facts" of Blindness/Ignorance, I must assume (unless you provide evidence otherwise) that you are simply a Troll, and thus cement yourself into my Ignore list permanently.

Which game was ever bugfree on release, can you name at least one please ?
If MW:O starts off as appealing as it should be fitting for anything MW in terms of audio, video, useful content, enjoyable meta-game experience and, most important of all, balance :
Anyone with ears will be able to hear my shoutings of joy over the whole world, I will make sure of that .

But let´s see, shall we ?

Yes, Example: Team one is 500tons, team 2 can be 450tons or 550tons or anywhere inbetween.


Understand but i think the difference should be 40 tons becuase we have 8 players and if we will have 12 players than it should be 60 tons, 5 tons possible difference for each player(Mech).

Do not expect that there will not be bugs when the game will be released. Patching and fixing is like never ending story. ;)

Has there ever been an online game released that was bug free?
I've yet to find one.
Heck, most veteran online games are still loaded w/ bugs.

My line about 'not best example' was along that thought Rasako...
On the other hand the general point still stands, Microsoft HAD a decent reputation, now they do not, and all it took was the loss of one individual.


Reputation is opinion. In my eyes Apple has a far worse reputation than Microsoft.

Agreed. How could any self respecting gamer like Apple or Linux over MS?

LOL. MS has pretty much denounced PC gaming. Have you tried Games for Windows? All they care about is Xbox. Windows 8 is terribad. At least Apple is adding more support for pc gaming.

Then that will be Windows death knell. Its not even particularly suited to games, it just had developer momentum.

Too bad they can't put MWO out for Linux. Games are the only reason I even use Windows.

I'm a PC gamer. I could give two poops about Consoles.

Now, when it comes to the PC...

At least Microsoft believes/believed in an open system where I could install whatever software and use my machine/devices for whatever I want. No i-tunes, no i-store, no app store, no closed hardware no nothing. Simple, open system that could be cloned and sold without repercussions.

Apple has done nothing for PC gaming. That's delusional to even believe that. Microsoft has done more for PC gaming over the last three decades because, well, face it, Microsoft defined what a PC ... IS. A "Personal Computer" that is yours to use/put/do whatever you like with. Not what Steve told you to use it for and how.

Windows 8 is junk but... unlike OS X, we aren't forced to use the newer version within a couple of years of it being released. I wish I could say the same for my Wife's macbook. If I don't want to upgrade the operating system I'm screwed because most apps that come out even six months later require the OS upgrade (THAT I HAVE TO PAY FOR) where Microsoft releases free service packs for several years after they sell the initial operating system.

Apple is fantasyland. Microsoft has always been reality despite their mistakes (some of them were BIG mistakes, too).

1. Windows has a closed app store, you don't keep up with the times.
2. Apple doesn't shoot for the gaming market because the market doesn't develop games for the 10% of computers that are macs. It's a waste of time. They do provide good tools for booting into windows though, those tools usually have better driver support than the OEMs producing windows laptops tend to give.
3. What the hell apps are you using that require new OS versions to use..? iMovie? Is your wifes macbook from 2004? Also, those OS upgrades are 30 dollars, that's not even a hero mech.

[redacted] A windows OS upgrade costs hundreds of dollars, a mac OS update costs 30. Windows gates direct x versions and issuances of their first party software by OS mark so you do have to upgrade to be in a current first party software spec. Both companies have closed ecosystem app stores, and you're free to download any program onto your mac at any time. There are millions of pieces of third party software written for mac OS's.
