Well I got to say I hoped a more interesting launch than this. I still enjoy this game I have been playing since CB, bought elite founder, bought phoenix, have bought MC and premium time, and I dont regret it. I had fun with this game, and I still do, but i find myself taking longer and longer breaks from it, and frankly i was about to take a long break last month perhaps till phoenix release or the next big feature, because i was getting tired of the same old deathmatch pugs, but I bumped into an old RL buddy of mine and told me he and other guys were playing MWO actively and invited me to their regular gaming nights, so thats what keeping me in game right now, we were pretty excited about upcoming CW and we want to form a merc group, but now im worried that it gets pushed into 2014...for the time being im still having fun blasting away pugs with my new lancemates (its funny how an organized lance can turn the tables in a pug), so i will keep playing but one thing i made my mind today was not spend a single more dollar in this game till CW is released, i feel i have spent more than enough on a team deathmatch shooter, no matter how cool it is to pilot a Mech and blast others away. The main selling point for this game for me was being able to select my drops, who to fight for and those things very like Mechwarrior 4: Mercenaries but with real opponents. In fact big part of selecting a loadout, having different mechs for different situations is being able to select that situation or at least having a debrief or any idea of what you are facing. Its frustrating to drop blind onto my brawling atlas, because well im in the mood for some brawling, and get dropped into Alpine Peaks, or end up in terra therma onto my pulse laser loaded Stalker. It was ok during beta "ok they are tweaking the combat systems, the root of the game" but now its time they started adding stuff that makes said combat more meaningful.
Also, the other thing that made me not wanting to spend another dollar here till i see some meaningful good change is that recently it seems like PGI is more focused on squeezing money from us than adding the promised features in game. Most of the recent patches always contain a shiny new Hero Mech for MC only, that have much better bonuses than Founder Mechs, and Phoenix Mechs or like i like to call it "Founder Package 2.0" which yeah I bought I liked the mechs and extra premium time and at the time i really thought that we would get CW at Launch or at Phoenix Launch at least partially, or some nice new feature!, but now i feel like it was just a money grab.
