Here's where you are wrong. I bought a founders pack for those items. I decided to pay for those items because I was promised no 3pv, no coolant flush, CW, and a metagame that included more of an endgame than collectamech collections in hangars. Give me one example of how any of those features have been delivered and do not say "soon". Most founders did not ****** money to obtain those items. Most founders invested money on the basis of promises made by this company to create at game they would enjoy. I can understand delays, glitches here and there, etc. I cannot abide by outright lying and getting told I am no longer a target demographic so my opinion and ideas on what this game should be are now going to be completely disregarded and ignored. This backlash isn't over one feature or one delayed deadline. It simply isn't that cut and dry. This backlash is over 2 years of being patient and understanding and now basically being given the finger by a company we invested money in. If this was what you wanted the game to be in the first place that's fine. I wouldn't have purchased a founders pack though and definitely would have placed it in the "play when I am bored category" for those that can't understand that this isn't something that wS sparked by a singular issue or instance I don't know how else to explain to you why some are upset.

are you the forum police.. or a moderator.. no.. so **** off.. public forum I'll post here as long as I like..

you just want this thread to be full of hate for the devs.. like you did with with 3pv threads.. you figure if you abuse them enough they'll do what you want.. the world is becoming over crowded with ********* like you that think they're owed something.. you got your game.. be happy with it.. if you're not happy with the product they've released, take some of your own advice.. go elsewhere.. I enjoy the game and dont want to see it plagued with bugs from patches you lot want implemented...

good things come to those who wait... you just seem impatient.. a year is nothing.. wait 10 years for a sequel then come back to me...


Ok I am convinced. This is just a sad alt account for the intent of trolling, therefore against the rules, and you are the one who needs to be moderated.

No sane battletech fan would come in here as a new person and fight this much, If you were really such a fan as you say you are and that you love the current state of the game you would be playing the game not fighting the never ending battle in the forums.

Being a childish troll regardless of what side of the fence you sit on will get you nowhere.

They don't need me to be their white knight. The money they are rolling in will allow them to buy all the white knights they could possibly want. And probably send you a "We miss you" care package with some cheese to make you feel better.


Yeah so why did you end up being the top poster 2 days in a row defending pgi to the death?

As for all of the 10 ratings? Do you REALLY feel this is one of the most solid and greatest games ever made? You do realize ten implies absolute perfection in every aspect of the game right? For those giving a 0. Do you REALLY feel this is the worst game ever made and completely unplayable in every aspect?

And this is exactly the type of attitude that has caused poor reviews. Things change then my opinion changes. Want a good review? Give me what I was promised. Don't care about my poor review? That's fine but don't expect any more money from me or anything but poor reviews from a dissatisfied customer

Critics are going to rate the game on gameplay, not on how sad you are.

Bloo are you serious LOL,

you say meta critic is meaningless, yet admit you wasted your time posting a score there, crazy.

you, a delusional fanboi or paid schill gave the game 8 outta 10, what are the chances that anyone would give the game a 10 out of 10, let alone pages of 10/10 scores.

Meta critic takes score rigging seriously, you will be caught..

I love how hard people are trying to convince us that MWO is going to fail. As if saying it over and over again with your fingers in your ears is going to make that happen.

Maybe try stomping your feet too?

Don't know what forum you're looking at, but looking at this one it's obvious that Community Warfare is Working as Intended™.

Bloo so sad, you did not address one of my points , read the above large letters for some education.


you didnt make a point.. you made a series of comments based on nothing more than your opinion of what you think the situation entails..

show me these bluechip companies using MWO as an example of how not to do business, I cant find any companies doing such a thing.. neither can I find ONE big name game site that is saying the things you infer..

list these 3 websites (apparently 3 sites is 'all known game sites') that are using the term 'to mechwarrior' to describe what you say they are..

making **** up to suit your argument doesnt consitute a point... mate

Sadistic Savior, a really ironic name given your attitude on these posts....ironic and funny...

How the hell is this game free, I estimate somewhere between 15 million and 45 million in kickstarter/founder packages/hero mech sales based upon promises made which turned out to be lies....

Seems kinda expensive to me...

Founder Packages are not kickstarter pledge rewards. The monies received were not 'donations', they were 'purchases'. To say that it was a kickstarter is a gross conceptual error of what a kickstarter is. This game was already funded. Founder's packages are not Funder's packages. MWO was going to happen without the money received from the Founders Program (although it might have had even fewer features at this point).

Nobody needed to purchase anything to play this game. Some people may have purchased a Founders Package to get into the Closed Beta, but that's hardly required and you could have just waited to get into Open Beta. You'd be a fool to make purchases based on hopes, promises, ideas and dreams alone. I bought a Founder's Package not because of any starry-eyed hope that the game might become the ideal image I have in my head, but because I wanted the items. I started with an Elite package because I wanted the Catapult the most, and then upgraded to Legendary when I could afford it because I wanted the other 'mechs and items as well. I'd say I've gotten more value than what I spent on them in return.

Even with Star Citizen, a game that got its start through an actual Kickstarter, I didn't chip in until they were offering the Hangar Module, something tangible I could play with.

Make something I want, and I will buy it. I can't buy dreams and ideas. And those things aren't what PGI is selling in MWO. Making new versions of the Unseen? That's something I want. I will buy that. Making Clan OmniMechs? That's not something I want. I won't buy that. Pirahna's long term concepts for MWO? Not something I can purchase, and not something they are selling. You can only buy items. You don't need any purchased items to take part in the game. The game itself is not something you can buy as a customer.

Failing and not failing are completely different to driving the IP of Battletech into the ground aka casual COD/BF/hawken arcade style type of game.

That is not what the dev blogs were about and that is not what the $5million from the founders was given to pgi for.

As founders we ARE entitled to our opinions just as you are.


Right. And we get that you are upset. You refuse to accept the mech sim that you have, and pine for the mech sim that doesn't exist.

Coolant flush, 3PV... strange things to flip out over, to be honest. Gameplay is still fantastic, if you can live with those things. And if not... see you in 10 years when the next Battletech game is made.
