Bryan Ekman (correction: It was Russ) has confirmed no community warfare this year? really?

so... does that mean they are waiting to see if 'launch is successful' before committing the resources to community warfare?

Isn't the 'success of launch' dependent upon community warfare though?

It is for me.

Now I'm a little more torn on whether to buy a Phoenix package. Since the 4 stock special versions have a 10% loyalty boost I figured CW would be out and in full gear by October. However if it's pushed out beyond that why would I pay for something I can't use. Will sit on this until a Dev response to these issues.

I, like most in my guild, will remain foolishly optomistic. I am not giving them anymore of my money, cause I dont think that they have delivered for the prices they post. With the numbers they have they should be able to hire another developer or SOMETHING to help them push stuff outt faster and give the game a little more substance.

Simultaneous post Ward.

And I have... my problem is poeple who want to complain and whine about this or that not being the way they expect it and saying I'm quitting the game, or I'm leaving, or this is my last post... good bye, good riddance and dont let the door hit you on the way out

I know right? The world would be a much better place if we all just accepted everything. Of course we would all rot away in a pile of our own feces, but hey, at least we would all be happy and no one would complain.

Also, I see you are fairly new here... give it time my friend, give it time.

The idea of the phoenix packs is that if you buy one, you will stick around at least until they are released, even if 3PV, or lack if community warfare at launch angers you.

It is human nature to never be truely satisfied, if we were, we would never improve anything or make anything new.

Project Phoenix is the cash out money grab, guys.

It sure could be... but if it is it is the least greedy cash out ever.

Honestly they are in a pickle, I feel bad for them, but they have been dragging out letting us know the whole project timeline was borked for months if CW isn't in for sept launch with functional warfare not just community tags. Maybe project Phoenix is their literal chance to rise from the ashes, but if it is... they better double down hard because while I appreciate the content and the bug fixes... you have got to start delivering metagame if you want more cash.

[Torment2]

In that case I personally declare PGI to be inhuman!

[Alex Wolfe]

Hey guys, remember how you wanted to launch open beta and a whole lot of people told you "it's NOT ready"?

And then it launched regardless of our concerns, and it went so well?

So, about this launch announcement... yeah. It's not ready. Just saying.

I wish MWO all the best (because robots looks and sound nice, if for nothing else), but if the next three patches are merely "satisfactory" and not REVOLUTIONARY... when the beta review shield is gone, may Blake have mercy on this game.

[Vassago Rain]

Yeah, this won't go over well. I like the latest patch, but if you don't have a perfect string of Jesus patches leading to releaase, this isn't gonna end on a happy note for anyone.

[Marvyn Dodgers]

Thanks for the release update, Phoenix money will be incoming and shunt aside the vitriol

It changes nothing. Well, there will be no more "it's a Beta" excuse for PGI defense squad on the forums

They have only 40-man team. This tells you nothing?

50 + ~4 people.

For a game this size that's a huge team, for the kind of progress we see it makes no sense at all

LOL this is gold.

I wish I could double like it.

[Devil Fox]

So we get them sticking to a date for open launch... another launch and another series of features meant to be in the last one, won't be in this one... seriously do they read what they write up? Over 1 year to design and code CW, and yet where are we? PPC meta is STILL going strong (LRM's were nerfed within weeks), recycled map and game modes still in rotation, still no communication from PGI...

Hell their entire idea for this game is in the bin by now... I'm highly doubtful we'll see this game finished at all, might be worth moving onto the next game where **** might get done. This is getting disappointing...

russ says the game is in the best places its ever been, all lies its in a horrible place,

Maybe it's only way to keep MWO rolling? Just put yourself in dev's place.

Don't think so...
