lol i really would like to see how they can **** this up more. it would be entertaining at this point


Eh...I don't enjoy watching PGI screw up the game. Honestly, it's like watching the Percy Jackson movie. (Read as: more painful than having a baby stab your eyes out with the bones of your dead mother while your insides are on fire)

I don't either, but it's kinda like watching the Three Stooges... you know someone will cause an eyepoke, a slap, and the occasional nyuk nyuk nyuk.

But at least with the 3 stooges the slap stick was intentional. :lol:

Don't worry, they'll get UI 2.0 and CW finished and people will still ***** and moan about anything they can lay their full-articulated robot hands on.

The actual score is anywhere from 4 to 6, depending on how long you've been playing.

uhm why? Is the score on metacritic going to change your opinion of the game? if you enjoy it play it. If you have issues with it then give suggestions on how to make it more enjoyable to you. If you hate it don't play it. If you read a review and find that it's just a troll then click the "not helpful" button and vote the review down. I click that button on any review of 0 or 10 regardless of what is said in the review. There's no way you can honestly rate this game as perfection or one of the best and most well deigned games in the history of gaming honestly and no way you can rate this game as an absolute unplayable PoS honestly

Are they now?

I'm sorry, but how can you be so sure?
PGI has done nothing but ignore the feedback of the paying community since closed beta.
While i can't fathom why, there are a lot of legendary founders here, who have sunk over 300 bucks in to this "game" and got very little for it.
The "game" is still just a one(yes i don't see "conquest" as a different mode) mode skirmish on 6 maps, with no real content whatsoever.
Sorry, but i think this money is gone.

They ended the beta phase with a game that can be hardly called one. No CW, no better UI, the mechlab is still a mess, and had to be "replaced" by smurfys mechlab, made by a fan. Energy weapon builds are still not usable etc.

I will bet 50$, that the CW will not come in 6 Month. And it will not come in 9 month.
PGI has cashed in on the dreams of a hardcore BT-fanbase, never having the intention to deliver what was promised.
I can only hope that at least a few of you can get any kind of refund for their lost money.

I will play MWO for a while longer, but until i can see some kind of REAL progress, not a new mech chassis to cash in with the hero model, i will not invest a single dollar in this game. 2 years, no real progress except some new chassis and weapon balancing, thats the list of accomplishments so far.

They have milked the fans with MWO, and now they will try again with Tactics.
We will see how many people they can screw anew.

That is what I'd expect the game to get. I'd give this game a 7 right now. I love the core gameplay. I play this game pretty much every day. But there is no ui 2.0, no clans and there is no community warfare.
But all those things are coming. So I don't see a problem.

Man... I would die to know why PGI decided to launch such an unfinished game, they knew the reviews would be bad. Why they just didn't take another year to get it right?
Why would you launch a game that has a music volume level option but it actually doesn't even have a soundtrack? I'll never know what's inside the head of this guys.

Well at least the score isn't falsely bloated to ten. However scores are scores and a 6.6 is something I wouldn't buy, or waste my time on. PGI has a lot of work ahead of them, hope they can actually do it before the next five years.


Metacritic also gives WoW and its expansions all 80-90 reviews. Doesn't mean the game isn't garbage or that you should play it.

Of course I'm also glad that MWO's score wasn't artificially inflated, and that PGI does in fact need to keep working towards getting an actual end-game. I'm not going to let what other people who might not even be MechWarrior or BattleTech fans determine how I feel about the game.

Hell, even Star Wars: The Old Republic has an 85.. And that game had rampant memory leaks, missing features and a PR/customer support system that was worse than PGI. tldr: People are idiots, take their opinions with a grain of salt.

Mechwarrior and Battletech fans may have been what kept this game alive for the last couple of years, but it's not what is going to keep this game afloat.

I find it funny that most of the extremely negative reviews from the "users" are directed towards the behavior of PGI / IGP instead of the merits of the actual game. I think that any score that has comments that have nothing to do with the merits of the actual game (and not the behaviour of the people producing said game) should be removed.

I get your point, but I just need to say that just because I personally don't like WoW doesn't make it a bad game. I know loads of people who like it, and only about half of them are ******** :)

Opinions are like ********. Everybody's got one and they all stink!

MWO is to MW/ BT as WWZ the movie is to the book.

Name and mechs vs. Name and zombies.... Facepalm.

classic examples of what not to do with an IP.

F**kin right man.

This game is fun to play. Much more fun that some recent titles I have paid for. If the game keeps having more content added to it, it will just get better. Right now it reminds me of MW Mercs, which is stil one of my favourite games. I see this taking up all my gaming time, until Dark Souls 2 comes out. Which, if it's anything like it's 2 predecessors, is basically going to be the Lord of all games.

I played this all weekend, when I had time, and had a blast. Haters gonna hate though. Funny thought.. if these complaining folks don't like the game so much, they surely must not be playing it. And if that's so, then... is there nothing better to do than just come on the forums to hang out and complain People love drama I suppose.

True they taking their time but compared to alot of MMOs the core of this game is very good.

Hopefully CW will add the needed point for all of this.

2 more month to go or less
