When they made the game, they had a plan all along, to create the Clan Invasions just like they should be. But how to weed out unworthy players to be clanners? How to create two sides that would fight for the Battletech universe with tooth and nail?
]Simply put, they have INTENTIONALLY run their game into the ground. They REALLY didn't want to put 3PV in, especially one that doesn't even help new players! But they knew that only casuals would accept this mode, and so they struck an agreement...
WITH CHRIS ROBERTS! Yes. With the chaos of the Inner Sphere, Mechwarriors would leave the hell-hole that was Mechwarrior Online to go to DEEP SPACE! Then...years later...once they had established themselves in space they will return TRIUMPHANTLY as the sons of Kerensky when they fix the game, to reclaim Mechwarrior from the silly nublets that the game is left with when the Hardcore leave.
It's genius. Mechwarrior Online is the best game ever. They metagamed their metagame so that we can game while we're gamed. 10/10.
