Depends on what you mean by "it". The posts? The thread? The Forum?


Ideally the forums (except Fan Art... that place is the BEST), but I recommend permanent bans for every participant in this thread. Let's show people what a real autocratic system can be like!

Including yourself right? Before you answer, remember: we goons do suicide gank after all.

Do people look at metacritic? I thought consensus was that it was just a place ragekids go to vent their righteous anger about some game where they didn't have their way.

Basically. Take a look at World of Tanks.

No one looks there. Or at any of the other reviews coming in. Everything is fine here.

I give MWO a 9 for what we have of it so far. It's a very nice simulation of mechs. I don't like some of the methods used to balance/nerf the weapons, I think the real problem will turn out to be the mechs needed to be tougher to damage, but that's why it gets a nine.

I can't judge things I haven't seen yet so they just get a pass. The core gameplay is pretty good, but you need the rest of what is yet to come to hold players.

So I think I get this thread now. It's about how going crazy and yelling at people with founders tags for disagreeing with you is a BAD thing, right? Like a heavy handed after school special sort of thing? Any minute now some poster's going to start singing "I'm so excited" and then break down in tears because it turns out they took too many caffeine pills, and then we'll all have learned a valuable lesson.

I looked at the metacritic reviews for MWO and laughed my balls off at both ends of the spectrum. People that could barely spell writing "DIS GAME R BAD AND PGI R LIES" giving zeroes and "I GAVE THIS GAME A 10 - IT'S REALLY AN 8 BUT BLAH HATERS BLAH ******** BLAH".

I learned that metacritic is a load of old toss, and that numerical review metrics are a waste of everyone's time.

We're a good 15 or so years past the days when you could just cover dissatisfaction up.

No my good sir, we're just dealing with an organization that doesnt have the financial prowess to do it. Anything can disappear, i assure you.

There is always a leak somewhere, but applying the level of government security to something like consumer dissatisfaction is basically reduction ad absurdum in reverse.

Unless we're all a testgroup for the government's top-secret pilot program and such a level of attention warrants the need for neutralization... Just saying.

Dont hit the Escape key if your computer freezes.

Good to see that the mods seem to have recovered from the recent outbreaks.

Hell, i even started to like Heffay over the last few pages. Everything is possible, it seems.

Maybe even PGI manages to turn this around... it's not to late. Even recruted a friend for MWO yesterday, although i admit to have warned him about spending more money then needed. Unlike me, he has some disposable income. :)

When CW and UI 2.00 are finally out i might even change my rating on Metacritic.

Really? I only laugh at one side of the spectrum. The other side makes me weep.

I actually just had to do that :) The logitech K200 seems to have a power button that serves only to put the PC into a sleep mode that ignores all wake commands. It's bizzare.
