"MWO will always be a 100% first-person game"
"1PV Players will never be forced to use or play against players using 3PV"

And now this classy taunt.

Bad form, Russ, bad form indeed.

Yeah, and it's not possible to still see around corners while keeping the drone completely hidden or anything...

Oh. Wait.

http://mwomercs.com/...e-those-queues/
After designing, developing, and testing the MWO’s 3PV, we quickly realised that 3PV offered no significant advantage over 1PV. In fact we found each mode had pros and cons that played well with each other. This revelation changed our initial 3PV plans and we postponed Hardcore mode (separate queues for 1PV and 3PV), in favor of rethinking the idea and offering up a different solution that also addressed a few more community wish list items.

Changes...That happen without notice. All Systems Nominal...

F him.

That is all I have to say about that.

poll after poll showed that no one really wanted third person, and then PGI said ok, we will keep queues seperate so people dont have to play with them.

Then they release this.

Spend your money elsewhere thats all you can do.

I find it quite unprofessional for the president of Piranha Games Inc. to troll the player base so often. Remember that "you're on a bit of an island there bud" thing?

I think Russ himself might be on an island. One full of lies.

Just never use 3rd person...vote with your feet so to speak.

[Tsig]

...Does this mean the trolls don't like getting trolled?

[Devils Advocate]

Vote with your wallet. If you went for phoenix preorders request a refund. Even if they reject you it'll send a message.

[NRP]

What exactly is all the outrage about anyway? That Russ thinks 3PV might actually be a slight disadvantage (e.g. Mech easier to spot)? Some of you guys seem overly sensitive and a bit insecure.

[Waking One]

community deserves being trolled for all the absolutely worthless "feedback" ****-slinging they provide tbh

[Slopey]

Disgusting.

I wasn't going to walk away, but if that's his attitude, my Phoenix refund request will be going in now.

Hey man if this is an elaborate troll then huray they took my money and made fun of me. Yay! If the third person with no queues thing is real that's less trolling and more lieing and no matter how mean and dumb the community can be this is approaching fraud levels of dishonesty. Joking around about it is inappropriate : (

So, because they've delayed the separate queues, suddenly it's fraud now?

First we were told MWO would always be a 1st person (simulator) style game...then when they told us they were adding 3rd person in spite of what the majority wanted they said we would be separate....now we're all in the same boat despite what's been said...I don't care if 3rd person is worse then 1st....I never wanted it to begin with.

"Hardcore" mode, where no 3PV is allowed, is coming. So I guess everything will work out eventually.

[krash27]

Wait a minute, were we not told that we would not have to play with the 3PV crowd if we didn't want to? That there would be a 3PV drop and a 1PV hardcore drop? So they are already making us play in one drop que?

[Jetfire]

I wonder if he thinks North and South America are all one big island?

[Crazycajun]

There is nothing wrong with playing with folks that wana play in 3rd person view...

it doesn't offer any more advantages then what seismic offers or anything else..

it just blown up because all the "elite" and forum warriors don't like other folks having fun with the game except them..

i for one applaud pgi for sticking to their guns and keeping the 2 together in the same que.. we do NOT need a playerbase split..and before u say we do..you people have not seen what that kinda split does to a game.. i have.. you dont want it here.

Is it? Judging by the post earlier they've since figured that 3rd person doesn't warrant any new modes since it doesn't really give any advantages...
