Please provide input that isn't "this won't work". We're bored of you. Troll funny please.

Oh my, even vertebrates, from the class Aves, have feelings that can be hurt?

I am truly baffled.
I always thought your years on the interwebz had made you immune to such situations :b

That's more like it! We need more Posted Image in MWO.

Yeah man, totally hurt feelings here. I like my trolling to be fresh, witty and original. What we're getting is just 4chan level "copypasta" stuff here. My epicurian troll senses are offended.

No Fil, the derail must continue! And if ever it stops, we must start it again!

I would have never guessed the 6 PPC stalker was so much of a threat. I always saw it as a one trick pony, the 4 PPC/PPC+Guass builds put far more fear into me because they could actually sustain a reasonable DPS and Pinpoint. Those 6 PPC stalkers just seemed like a joke, but I guess I was wrong.


You know there's a completely different game inside this game. I never see a single troll on my level(or atleast he's quiet) but there are games where people actively **** talk on others builds, equipment, play, all that. And by that I don't mean "we got 4 bjs on our team its 4v8" but proper name calling like 13yr olds.

So while we couldn't see them 6ppc demolishers very often, its hard to tell what went on at starter elo.


And about the 3rd person, they will probably put it in the same que, don't even think they won't.

But by having no minimap I'd say its a reasonable trade off and only thing they have to do to prevent people switching between the two for best-of-both-worlds is making it locked in after match launch, or to having the switch take place with a ~20s delay with a animation of the drone popping up and flying around, whatever.
Make it not worth, or not possible switching/exploiting, and we cool on my part.

You sounded lonely for a reply so I will provide one for you. No player in this game wants a group with singular agendas to rule there fun. Your group is hell bent on projecting your own ideas on PGI and even telling players to ask for refunds just to get your way. Is this not extortion of PGI/IGP and there right to produce a game that is fun profitable and supports the team that is working on said game=MWO? Your initial ideas were good but it soon became apparent to me this group just wants to control what PGI/IGP puts into the game based on your own and your little groups opinions. That leaves out 95% of the opinions of other players in this game. It is all right if you individually ask or post topics and post about your opinions PGI/IGP is pretty lenient about this just look at all my topics and posts against some of there decisions but in no way have I ever wanted to harm PGI/IGP based on there core game design only to help them understand what I feel a true MechWarrior game was and what MWO could be like based on them.



While I fully support PGI/IGP's right to produce MWO, since no one else is doing a mechwarrior game at this very moment, and while your remark about the group being "hellbent" on projecting their own ideas & views is correct. I would point out that it takes some serious devotion to get PGI to even glance at your idea/feedback, so yes while it may be extreme to say "lets all get refunds unless they listen to us", its pretty extreme to completely overlook the simplest things to fix your game and actually listen to your consumer base. I would also point out that PGI seems "hellbent" on creating the game they want, and have little to no intention of making the game we want to play. I play this game because I love battletech, and its a modern title for battletech, but I dont feel like its going the right direction. I feel like its quickly becoming another Duke Nukem Forever (PGI did work on that flop). Well I suppose you could call it Mech Assault Online, cause we're part way there already.

  • Townhall #2 has not occurred yet. Due to my moving/being sick/work, I wasn't able to coordinate it for Tuesday as much as I would have liked. Townhall #2 is occurring on Tuesday, August 13th, and will be moderated by Anders. I may be there? It depends on my sanity level at the time.
If you have any burning questions about #saveMWO that this does not answer, let me know.




Hey Stalkerr,

My apologies if I am using the incorrect name. I was referring to the invite only conference that happened after Townhall 1, that I have been incorrectly referring to as Townhall #2.
Sorry for the confusion.



Cheers.

So it looks as if the latest ATD has been delayed. Perhaps those #saveMWO questions are causing some consternation over at HQ (or not).

Ah, I don't think that was a thing. Certainly people have been text chatting non-stop in Mecha Lingua, but there hasn't been an organized voice chat after the Town Hall, to my knowledge (and certainly not one that was invite-only).

Big G, Big D:

Nah, it's more of a situation where they only have so many hours in the day to write words about the game (as they are busy coding, don't you know), and Russ's Dissertation on 3rd Person View ate up all the Words Writing Time in the week.

I hope you understand that they are a small company with limited word electrons (and let me tell you, I know something about electrons). They will get a refill of word electrons on Monday (a little robo-bird told me this).

We here at The Word of Lowtax thank you for your post. We here at the Word of Lowtax realize that you have limited entertainment destinations and appreciate that you're spending your entertainment electrons on us. Please continue to choose the Word of Lowtax in your future holiday destination spending! We are grateful for your out of the box, blue-sky thinking, and appreciate you touching base with us here at the Word of Lowtax. We hope to synergize our efforts to achieve quantifiable paradigm redefinitions in a future collaboration soon.

Robotically Yours,
Anders

Is it funny that the biggest group signed onto this are WoL?
IE those Goons that ppl are saying theyre the reason they dont want to sign on?

...is there any other group thats bigger than 1500 ppl on this game?

I dunno that it's funny or odd especially. I mean, it was a goon that kicked this all off, it's not that surprising that we're in agreement on this.

In terms of bigger groups - no idea. I wouldn't be surprised if there were bigger groups than us. After all, we have a limited pool of people to draw from. Other groups don't have that same limitation.

About 80 registered members, who knows how many actually bother playing anymore. Ill be here to represent. Probably 20 left, but I think its fine if we speak for the people who quit because of the games direction, maybe theyll be coming back with the community effort? Im looking for the emails now through all these pages.. anyone got a link where to sign us all up?

Where did you get those quotes from, Thunderklaws? They seem absent from the MWO facebook page, so I assume if they were there they've been deleted.
