I lose interest because of several reasons:

broken heat system
imbalanced weapons
overall lack of content
No progress in development

[Calliban]

bored of poptarts ruling the game, thats not how mechwarrior games used to work, and the team sizes of up to 4 or 12

Ohhhhh boy where to start.....

• Matchmaking imbalance (Several hundred tons of Atli on one team verses a light heavy team, lack of battle value implimentation)
  
• Heat system (Ghost heat, lack of proper double heatsinks totally invalidates energy builds)
  
• Hit Detection (Direct hits don't register, especially with SRMs)
  
• Ballistics Boating
  
• Lack of Hardpoint sizes (AC20 can fit on a raven what?)
  
• Removal of Collisions
  
• Removal of Actuator Damage
  
• Removal of cooking off ammo
  
• Removal of DX11
  
• Broken hitboxes (Primarily terrain hitboxes)
  
• Broken proposed clan implementation (Clan lights DOA)
  
• Lack of UI 2.0
  
• Lack of Community Warfare
  
• Lack of Player/Dev communication
  
• Developer Gold Digging

Thing is.... I don't even know if I remembered everything that's turning me off of this game.

i still don´t understand why they did this...i couldn´t see any issues with it while it was active... and with the current ballistic heavy gameplay it would be another balancing factor in a way.

Lack of a meta-game, lack of cohesive game design, lack of engagement with the community. It becomes more and more difficult for me to justify logging into this game to 'show my support' when it is clear that I am viewed merely as a wallet to be exploited. The recent clan announcement, with the accompanying design outline for said clans, confirmed to me that PGI does not know what they are doing- their idea of game design appears to be throwing darts at a design document and then going with it, regardless of whether it was a good idea or not, or whether it is embraced by the community. Unless the dart hits something that requires actual work, well then we're ******. UI2.0 and CW, I don't think you elephants-in-the-room can get any bigger.

Pin-point Perfect Weapon Convergence
+
Heat scale that is high with no detrimental effects
=
High pin-point alpha meta.


BattleTech weapon weights, heats and damages were NOT balanced for pin-point convergence.
If you use some of it, you need to use ALL of it.
Start with that as a base, THEN tweak.

Give us Cone of Fire
Take back your damned complicated and arbitrary ghost heat.
Give us true double heatsinks

And a proper heatscale.
Skew it, stretch it, modify it.
We don't care.
The goal shouldn't be to run at 99% heat.

Most things have been already reported.

I want to add the damage dealing structure wich is totally random.

You get one shot on your shoulder ammo, and implode cause one bullet start a nuclear reaction wirh the planet atmoshpere. But you can place 20 shots of Ac/10 directly in the enemy cockpit, and he will be still there killing you, just because he placed 10000 armor point on his torso (too bad there shouldn't be any armor on the cockpit glass).

Gauss- 4.75-6.00 fire rate

SRM-who cares when you got ballistics and PPC

Armor- Atlas or Cicada. Get in front of 2 heavy mechs and you die in 5 seconds.

Boring PvP mode - how long are we gona play the same thing over and over?

New spawn locations - anyone else feels confused when they spawn on big maps?

that chart got me thinking...why dident they just simply take the table top, dice rolls and all everything involving combat bar moving around, and have the game be a simple graphical user interface from wich to experience it from?

wouldent that have solved alot?

or did it go against their arogant vission?
