When is the official expected release date for MWO? There are rumors that it is a month from now, just wanting to confirm speculation.

This game isn't anywhere near ready for launch. Pretty disappointed in whoever made the choice, shows how little knowledge that person has of the game.

If they're planning to release on September 17th then we should already have been testing UI 2.0 and Community Warfare by now.

They picked this launch date like a year ago. I think they're just trying to deliver on one of their more public promises. I don't know what a 'release' entails when all we have is deathmatch and king of the hill after two years of development but hey, you never know.

We tried to say that about coming out of closed beta... we told them it wasn't ready...

When a game goes live, It is the biggest PR storm of a games life cycle. It is when the reviewers all sit down and do their job. A game gets only one chance to impress the reviewers and their initial review will follow the game forever. Even if a game improves the best they will ever get later is an article or an update. Launching a game with no DX11 support, No SLI/Crossfire support, with no community warfare, and a UI that is horribly non-intuitive, only 2 game modes(that were supposed to only be placeholder game modes), with non-destructible trees and building, with no collisions and only a handful of maps IS ABSOLUTE FOLLY. The reviewers are going to destroy MWO. It could easily spell the death for this game. There are at least 2 huge 'A' games about to be released that will tear many people from the MWO universe. Going live now with a game that is truly not out of alpha (the features are not all in yet) makes no sense. Some fool is trying to save face for a promise given a year ago, but it is going to cost MWO in the end. I want to see this game succeed. DONT GO LIVE, WAIT! Don't chase squirrels you will be destroyed.

The game didn't deserve that spot, at all.

I don't know who the f*ck made that list up (or who paid them), but there are some stunning omissions and odd choices.

Tribes: Ascend made it, and the original (a far superior game) didn't? And no Crysis (PC Gamer rated the original at 98%!)!? None of the Call of Duty games? No Serious Sam games? NO PAINKILLER!?

So yeah, take that list as a crappy PR stunt, I'm sure several of those spots were well paid for. It's why I dropped my subscription to that rag a long time ago.
