Do I win a cookie?

Edit looks like 18 posts are MIA, prob deleted threads from around the old general discussion days


And since we are talking about numbers the launch twitch stream is just under 2500 views, where is the other 1297500 people?

"You are permanently banned from talking in igp." Neat. I guess they didn't like my remark about the spinning pizza lights on the walls.

Speaking out of turn is now "Rioting against Comstar" and actionable as a result.

Well if I was there, I'd ask why the camera feed suddenly went black and white.

I got banned for "Chris Roberts!" in chat.

Talking about other video games is "Inciting Discontent with Comstar" and actionable. Even making oblique references to non-mechwarrior games is actionable.

I will probably die protecting a hat factory.

Just saw a player pick a stock Centurion D.

In a tournament.

Where you can make custom mechs.

I still dont understand why there isnt a better system than sync dropping by now, atleast for a PGI run tourney.

I would seriously like to hear the legit reason why, and dont say UI 2.0, its pgi run they could have set up a stand alone test server and given everyone names and infinite money to deck out a mech.

wait, you mean they didn't even set up a seperate server node? The stream is just 'people playing MWO'? Wow. I thought I was actually going to miss something interesting for a moment. *headdesk*

I'm a huge fan, really - I play every week, and I even like the weapon balance at the moment, but you can't release half a game and expect glowing praise, nor can you show off high level play or professionalism by hiring a few NGNGs and not even bothering to optimize (and segregate) the tournament server!

The reasons are:

1. UI 2.0 (According to PGI)
2. No Lobbies (that would cut into the already divided queues and playerbase)
3. Zero foresight/planning for this sort of event in development

I got banned twice, for what, I have no clue, the video stream is horribly dark, and the Spectator/Commentator, Phil, from No Guts No Spine, is absolutely horrible, both at MC'ing, and Spectating......they have a Free Look spectate mode, and the ***** doesn't even use it ......


Waste of time IMO. I've seen more interesting things happen at a FN Funeral.

I've been to some pretty interesting funerals to be fair.

They are on the test server.

Why are they synch dropping then?

edit: As in, why didn't they even hack together a basic lobby-type thing or any sort of UI improvement for this?

For dramatic effect. They just mentioned that they had to redownload the test client because a computer scrapped out.
Also, you can tell how none of the sync drops are connecting with other 12 mans, and I *guarantee* there are a bunch of 12 mans out there right now.

[Dukarriope]

I imagine they are using a specialized client build there that is targeting a specific server (which is the one there). But they still have to sync-drop for it to actually happen.
