If this was talked about and answered before please point me in that direction.

Is there any plans or talk about creating a persistent universe for us to game in? I guess it would be an MMO type planet system, real estate to own and MOBs/players to kill out in the wild?

CW will have a few different ways of operating.

If you belong to an in-game faction your matches will count towards taking control over a "front" which is a group of planets disputed between two factions. Control of these territories will give your faction and its members bonus's (cheaper access to mechs/tech, slight in-game bonus's, etc).

If you belong to a merc corp, you will fight over individual planets in scheduled matches. Control of planets will give your merc corp bonus;s as well.

No, this game will not have a "Persistent Universe" in the sense of WoW or Planetside.

It will be fully PVP, with possibly some static defenses or summonable non-mech vehicles or something, at the most.

Community Warfare will presumably feature a map we can all fight over to hold planets and gain various benefits, but we have seen, literally, nothing on that in about a year. Not a peep beyond "Oh, first phase of CW should be in in a month or two... or five..." :rolleyes:

A slight explanation on the meaning of the word "Soon™" here in MWO.
Soon™ means here a year or more.
