Have to sync drop the teams
Paste in a launch window that is probably totally unrelated to the game client itself
Spectator client that is a basicly a hacked ghost player in the match that can fly. I wouldn't put it past PGI if the ghost spectator blocks shots if it gets in the way

clearly launch ready

we don't even have community warfare and we're launched. The game isn't much different from how it was last year.

Here's hoping PGI puts together a CCP on what they discussed at the party in a somewhat timely fashion for those of us who couldn't attend.

Sounded like the "big info reveal" is going to be a look at the new map and the Phoenix mechs... I will be soooo disappointed if they don't give us some CW info.

Could someone explain to me why a third-party podcast is MC'ing an official tournament for the product launch?

I mean, I expect that one of the devs would do it, but if they want to have NGNG be their PR team for the event, they could at least pay them. Unless they are already being paid. ;)


You do know the NGNG is paid by IGP to do twitch tv events and produce some of the training/info videos they have done....

No conflict of interest in presenting information about MWO whatsoever!

Any idea when the big announcements are going to be, or if they did them already? The tournament is getting boring and Phil is still rambling on like mad and screaming into his mic.

... why not just write an API that mech builders can use?

Seriously, Smurfy is okay, but I prefer mechromancer, it's lightweight and is way easier to use.

So the same thing they said two years ago basically. Nothing new to see here, move along.

Such a shame too. So much potential and yet here we are with the exact same statements made two years ago. This is exactly what I hoped against but feared
