All they had to do is check Bryan Ekman's interview to NGNG:


All they had to do was go find a specific part in a three hour podcast by a (presumable) third party, why is everyone complaining about how PGI doesn't communicate!?

Already fixed since previous patch.

It isn't as squishy, and it's getting limited play in specific roles.

The Orion is still kinda squishy though.

Beware, criticism of PGI is now a violation of the New Unified Mechwarrior Code of Conduct! After all, anyone who has issues with this perfect game is clearly trying to stir up dissent.


Kind sir, could you please point out where in the provided link it says that. Just for my edification.

Congratulations ,
Good to see the game finally out of beta. I've enjoyed it thus far and sure I will for the foreseeable future.

So no reset of stats, I thought this was something that was definitely getting done, don't mind either way though I know some do.

Anyhooo WOOOOOOOOT!!!!!!!

Best thing for them would be if the patch wouldnt work and they have to make a rollback and use it as explanation to reschedule the launch until they could bring something like a new gamemode or map along with it.

Btw......you really should talk to your marketing-staff when planning a launch......you do have marketing-staff, do you? oO

It's almost like PGI hates these forums too! :V

I may be wrong here, my memory isn't great, but I'm having major deja vu reading the note about MM search widening the longer it takes. I could have sworn that was something they added ages ago. Or was I just remembering them talking about adding it?

Congrats on reaching launch day PGI :P

Unfortunately... you launched it without UI 2.0 and community warfare.

It was only ever mentioned as a possibility with introduction of achievements, which won't be implemented until UI 2.0 is released. There still may be no wipe at that point either.

umm, why is today even called launch day?

Launch Day should be something Big and Grandoise, not something... well like today, ho hum.

[Redacted]

I mean UI2.0, the supposed lobby (I like what I heard about the dropship lobby and being able to bring several mechs with you), and hell even the release of the Phoenix Packs, now all three together now that would be a Great Launch day, but this, this is the biggest let down since.... hang on thinking... still thinking... almost... [Redacted]

I hate to think about how many hundreds of dollars I have poured into this game, supporting you guys in the hopes that you will be able to bring my most favorite game EVER to life. I am one of your staunchest supporters, but it is hard to stay that way, when I am constantly hearing comments about how you guys are not delivering on your PROMISES or CONTENT in a timely manner.

Argh!

I really do hope you guys pull this off, I mean I love MWO but doing 8v8 and 12v12 is not my idea of a Great game!

Where are the missions?

How do we set ourselves up to aline with the Great Houses, or a Mercenary Unit or to join a Clan?

Right now we only pretend to belong to House Davion or be a member of an elite Merc unit or dream that we are an actual members of Clan Smoke Jaguar.

Where are the maps for the contested planets that we will be fighting over. 12v12, 12v10, or 12v8 IS vs Clans on 7 or 8 different maps will not cut it!

Where is our story line, cripes I can go buy any $40 to $60 dollar pc game and have multiple missions and a halfway decent storyline. All we have here at MWO is 12v12 on a multitude of maps.

If you have something in the works then at least share that with us, we all understand there are delays and we are all getting used to PGI / IGP extended delays but at least give us some sort of road map of where you expect us to be in the next year, but give it to us in 30 day increments so we know what is going on.

For some reason PGI/IGP loves to keep it's customers in a TOTAL BLACKOUT!

They are extending the search time and narrowing the acceptable bands further. Should actually make better matches at the cost of a bit longer wait. We'll see.
