While I think PGI has done an excellent job in general of creating a couple games. There have been a couple massive flaws in how the game has changed. First the ECM Mess, then the new heat joke rules, and now the 12 v 12. To be honest, the game was almost better in Beta (sorry alpha or whatever you want to call it) than it is now.

I would honestly suggest making 12x12 option NOW. I would much rather see 1x1 or 4x4, or even staying with 8x8. The 12v12 current adds nothing to general play value, and makes matches take almost twice as long for half the payout. To make the matter worse, you don’t get paid in full if you drop from the match. Die in the first 5 minutes? No longer do you have to wait 3-4 minutes, now you get to wait 10m!

Please stop drinking your own coolaid, and take a step back. Some simple changes would help a great deal.

• Let people pick match sizes, 8x8 is just fine for most, 4x4 and 12x12 are interesting to some.
  
• Add similar heat mechanics to the TT.. Some are very easy to do such as SLOWING mechs down when they over heat, perhaps even affecting ROF or blurring out the targeting hud some.
  
• Remove the current heat stacking joke.

Please take the game in the excellent direction it was started in! I really really want to give you more money!

12x12 or larger will very nice for some community battles, but many of the best fights in the game are smaller unit to lance scale!

The Colonel is 100% correct. Stick with it.
