also- we want Launch Event MC Sale!

Yes!

Like I said in my last post a 3rd Orion sale in a month is not what we want for a launch day sale.

Hi, this is the most anemic launch possible, the day after GTA5 launched.

edit: I like the "Free shiney if you play 24 matches, please come play so we have some kind of statistics to show IGP that we're not losing money/community interest and we can claim we have an active community."

I Know, it used to be WIN 50 matches in a period, now they are just hoping you PLAY 24 matches in the same period.

Good god, such high expectations....

No wonder it's such a lame launch...

I like how everyone that is negative about the launch hasn't actually downloaded the latest patch yet. So all of you, what's the winning lottery numbers for this week? You seem to be able to know EVERYTHING before anyone else! :rolleyes:

no...but we can read patch notes....you should try it

They need the active users! How else are they going to claim that launch was a success?

Why should we lower our expectations when we were not the ones who created said expectations? It would be totally different had they never said we would have certain features that we still do not yet have. Seriously, if there was a vote between 3rd person POV and a private lobby so you can drop with your friends wherever you want, which one do you think would win?

You are local, want to netmech with me? It might be a tad more realistic. :rolleyes:

Patch seems to be taking a long time, relative to the minor changes in the patch notes...?

Too soon. The game is not ready.

Your PR dept will be working overtime.

Oh Wow! Look at that! My second forum post EVER, saying how I was disappointed as a new player with this launch, after spending money in preparation for the launch, and nothing really got delivered, was deleted!

So PGI, going to delete this one too?

You continue to display your lack of knowledge on how to extract money from people PGI.

Where the hell is the launch day sale? I was planning on giving you money for launch day. I've already spent nearly 100 bucks, and I wouldn't mind spending a bit more if you have 30-50% on MC or 60% on premium time.

Seriously HIRE A NEW BUSINESS person, please please please learn how to do sales and discount. Learn from Steam, learn from GreenMan Gaming, learn from other MMOs, learn business and sales.

Plus where is CW 0.5 or 1.0 or whatever and UI 2.0, I love you guys but come on throw us a bone.

Cheers and I will continue playing since you made a great game and I like the balance changes, just a bit frustrated is all.

Congrats on your dev milestone though, I do understand how much work it is, just venting out of love.

I enjoy this game a great deal, and wish PGI success in it so that it remains available for some time, BUT...

The launch patch notes are quite lackluster. Thus far, there is nothing that makes today stand out from patch day 3 patches ago (or more). I'm a big supporter, but it feels like SOME milestone ought to have been reached for launch day. This really appears like a publisher motivated push to get the game out of beta to increase revenue. Hopefully it won't be to the detriment of the game's future.

I hope you all are with me in wishing MWO to succeed because if MWO fails, I fear we'll all be waiting for a long time for another mechwarrior title (and now I'm hooked on MW!).
