Man you guys just don't get it. SharWolf and TarzilMan are just like Heffay, except without the part where they pretend to be intellectual. They just want their god-given right to make long posts in this forum about how their opinions are the greatest thing and everyone should agree with them, and then to make long posts getting really upset when someone disagrees with them.

It's what videogames are truly all about.

If Flower can get an 87% for being a flower petals blowing in the wind game, then 83% sounds right for a fun, basically stable, fairly balanced, team deathmatch game. Flower was great, but MWO has about 10x the gameplay and depth.


Seriously.

Don't judge things based on what they are not. Just things based on what they are.

For what it is, MWO is a fun, basically stable, fairly balanced, team deathmatch game.

If MWo had CW it would easily be 10% higher.


Well maybe once MWO is basically stable and fairly balanced it can have its 83% and maybe once it has CW it can have its 93% but reviewers are not oracles, they are forced to judge what you put in front of them instead of judging your dreams and aspirations. Founders were responsible for judging dreams and aspirations, and it hasn't come to pass yet.

HAHAHA Here we go. Do you not understand that Flower is a completely different promise than MWO? If they released Angry Birds but named it Call of Duty 5 and showed a bunch of trailers of gritty action, then Angry Birds wouldn't be like the most popular game ever. I don't play Angry Birds or remotely care about it, but they have obviously delivered on the game that they marketed and promised to their player base. THAT IS THE POINT. I don't complain that Ghostbusters didn't have realistic bad guys because it's not a sci-fi action movie, it's a comedy.

More like educational. You run around creating double standards on everything except the things that should actually have different standards.

He's right though, Ghostbusters is pretty damn entertaining. That's what he's talking about, right?

MWO also brings urban maps--about three of them--to MechWarrior for the first time,


Just read the whole thing, seems the writer doesn't know about Mechwarrior at all. There were urban maps in almost all from MW2 to MW4 and in some you could even detroy the enviroment.

Sometimes just getting some sort of attention is really the best you can hope for.

If you forget the history that lead up to this point and look at the game with an optimistic eye, I could see giving it an 83.

As it is, like a battered wife, I am still perfectly willing to rationalize away ghost heat, ECM still being super Angel ECM, and LRMs being poopy.

PGI loves me, I know it! Only I can really understand it.

It only hurts me because it loves me!

... really.

*sob*

***edit*** Can someone photoshop me up a picture of an Atlas with a black eye and a word balloon saying "I fell down some stairs... really... it's okay... they didn't take away my glowy eyes."
