HUH!!!! what? another fine post of the blind leading the blind!!!! TO all who post on this thread here is some news for you!!!---->>>PGI will do as they please and no matter what I say or any of you say only the decisions of the devs will come to pass. I personally play both FPV and 3rd person view have played both views since MW2 and a lot of other players have also. So to all those FPV only players I say to you (GET OVER IT) and just play and support the game. Hellll I have said this is not true MechWarrior yet but maybe it will be and that keeps me interested enough to still play a few games a month. If they ever have private matches and leagues and lobby launchers I will play it 24/7 no matter what views are available. http://www.youtube.c...d&v=bJwoJe3Kb5E

Telling us to "Get over it" is not very constructive.
If I cannot trust a company to keep their word or deliver what they promise, I do not give them my money.
Not only will I never spend a dime on MW:O again if the queues are merged, I will never spend a dime on ANY game associated with IGP, PGI, Russ Bullock, Bryan Eckman, et al.

Personally I think 3pv will be absolutely wonderful.

At present in a jagermech or highlander I can shoot down or up past the field of vision with my arm weapons, even looking down with ctrll doesnt help much with aiming. With 3pv I will be able to clearly see the mechs above / below me and shoot them with ease. This will mean I will be much more competitive as I can play with heights more and have a great advantage over people using 1pv.

Roll on 3pv all competitive play will have to move to 3pv or ****. Like hell they can make competitive 1pv only all that will happen is the 3pv people will complain they are being discriminated against and PGI will be forced to allow 3pv in competitive play.





Now if you'll excuse me I've got to get mechwarrior 3 working again I need to play a real mechwarrior game.

If PGI wants to spend development dollars on unwanted, controversial, bull stuff fluff like 3PV that is their business. The day they release 3PV to production BEFORE community warfare is implemented it will be the day they will lose MY business.

I don't give 2 licks if 3PV is fully developed, PTR tested, approved, and ready to install....if 'it goes in' before community warfare then 'I am out'. Save it until after community warfare PERIOD.

To date I have literally spent THOUSANDS (as in $2K+ dollars) to play a first person shooter against a community of players in big stompy robots from my childhood.

Take away the first person shooter...before you provide "the community"....no more 'founders packages', no more paint, no more xp conversions, no more mech bays, no more mechs.....my buy buy, goes bye bye....never to come back....end of story.

***EDIT***

My teammates put my feet to the fire about the 'never to come back'...that is inaccurate. It IS accurate to say that my "buy buy" will go "bye bye" from the time 3PV is released until community warfare is released, provided PGI makes the mistake of implementing things they said they wouldn't (3PV) before they implement the things they said they would (community warfare)....and yes, it would be a mistake at least IMHO.

Sirs;

I don't care how many people want or don't want 3PV. I don't really care that this was promised as FPV then "testing" 3PV then 3PV by choice. I fully agree it's PGI's call.
Just realize that Star Citizen, Destiny and a plethora of games I haven't seen are coming out and are enticing choices for MWO players. If 3PV splits the game into 2 distinct groups, and if neither is large enough to field players, there are more than enough opportunities elsewhere.
Enjoy your 3PV victory, but heed what those who say they will leave if forced to use it are saying; THEY don't have to stay, but YOU'RE getting what you wanted either way. I know many friends who aren't spending money until we get out of BETA; we'll see if this decision and its consequences will lead to MWO's demise....hope not, but it has divided the core playing community NOW.

I'm really against the 3pv I really hope it didn't take a lot of resources to do they could of been spent elsewhere. At this point 3pv would be something I would welcome down the road rather have something else, weapons we don't have yet or game modes.
