The mod responses to this thread are the exact reason I went from a staunch supporter of this game and the devs to someone who basically only checks the forums once in a while to see how things are going before moving on with my life.

Here. Watch this. It will enrich your life, especially when you realize that if you replace Age of Empires with Mechwarrior Online pretty much everything matches.

http://www.gdcvault....e-Wrong-Way-Age

And yes, as someone who has stood against some of the worst Kong **** flung around I find it ironic that I go to them for the most informative posts about the game industry and how it relates to MWO.


This is what I hear every time someone comes out to defend this attitude PGI, NGNG, and the shill squad use in order to silence any and all decent. Every time I see someone banned because they commented but have not played the game in a few weeks. Every time that PGI CLAIMS it has the numbers yet still does not ever support their evidence, but still uses those numbers to further abuse the dissatisfied members of their player base(Hey, Remember those numbers where Premades werent causing all of the landslide defeat people had? I had your back then... I dont now for a reason.)





That is right. This is a disaster and every post defending it is sheer comedy. Wackity Smackity Dooooo

You're a joke, and not a good one. Your existence here on the forums is marked by Goldstar e-peen wagging and craptacularly bad attempts at humor. You haven't had a decent, original idea about this game since you damn well got here, and you only continue to hang around here because you know you're completely irrelevant anywhere else. Your presence is smarmy and toxic, reminiscent of a mixture of Axe and eggfarts.


The ultimate flame (ultimateflame.com):

You swine. You vulgar little maggot. Don't you know that you are pathetic? You worthless bag of filth. As we say in Texas, I'll bet you couldn't pour **** out of a boot with instructions on the heel. You are a canker. A sore that won't go away. I would rather kiss a lawyer than be seen with you.

You are a fiend and a coward, and you have bad breath. You are degenerate, noxious and depraved. I feel debased just for knowing you exist. I despise everything about you. You are a bloody nardless newbie twit protohominid chromosomally aberrant caricature of a coprophagic cloacal parasitic pond scum and I wish you would go away.

You're a putrescence mass, a walking vomit. You are a spineless little worm deserving nothing but the profoundest contempt. You are a jerk, a cad, a weasel. Your life is a monument to stupidity. You are a stench, a revulsion, a big suck on a sour lemon.

You are a bleating fool, a curdled staggering mutant dwarf smeared richly with the effluvia and offal accompanying your alleged birth into this world. An insensate, blinking calf, meaningful to nobody, abandoned by the puke-drooling, giggling beasts who sired you and then killed themselves in recognition of what they had done.

I will never get over the embarrassment of belonging to the same species as you. You are a monster, an ogre, a malformity. I barf at the very thought of you. You have all the appeal of a paper cut. Lepers avoid you. You are vile, worthless, less than nothing. You are a weed, a fungus, the dregs of this earth. And did I mention you smell?

If you aren't an *****, you made a world-class effort at simulating one. Try to edit your writing of unnecessary material before attempting to impress us with your insight. The evidence that you are a nincompoop will still be available to readers, but they will be able to access it more rapidly.

You snail-skulled little rabbit. Would that a hawk pick you up, drive its beak into your brain, and upon finding it rancid set you loose to fly briefly before spattering the ocean rocks with the frothy pink shame of your ignoble blood. May you choke on the queasy, convulsing nausea of your own trite, foolish beliefs.

You are weary, stale, flat and unprofitable. You are grimy, squalid, nasty and profane. You are foul and disgusting. You're a fool, an ignoramus. Monkeys look down on you. Even sheep won't have sex with you. You are unreservedly pathetic, starved for attention, and lost in a land that reality forgot.

And what meaning do you expect your delusionally self-important statements of unknowing, inexperienced opinion to have with us? What fantasy do you hold that you would believe that your tiny-fisted tantrums would have more weight than that of a leprous desert rat, spinning rabidly in a circle, waiting for the bite of the snake?

You are a waste of flesh. You have no rhythm. You are ridiculous and obnoxious. You are the moral equivalent of a leech. You are a living emptiness, a meaningless void. You are sour and senile. You are a disease, you puerile one-handed slack-jawed drooling meatslapper.

On a good day you're a half-wit. You remind me of drool. You are deficient in all that lends character. You have the personality of wallpaper. You are dank and filthy. You are asinine and benighted. You are the source of all unpleasantness. You spread misery and sorrow wherever you go.

I cannot believe how incredibly stupid you are. I mean rock-hard stupid. Dehydrated-rock-hard stupid. Stupid so stupid that it goes way beyond the stupid we know into a whole different dimension of stupid. You are trans-stupid stupid. Meta-stupid. Stupid collapsed on itself so far that even the neutrons have collapsed. Stupid gotten so dense that no intellect can escape. Singularity stupid. Blazing hot mid-day sun on Mercury stupid. You emit more stupid in one second than our entire galaxy emits in a year. Quasar stupid. Your writing has to be a troll. Nothing in our universe can really be this stupid. Perhaps this is some primordial fragment from the original big bang of stupid. Some pure essence of a stupid so uncontaminated by anything else as to be beyond the laws of physics that we know. I'm sorry. I can't go on. This is an epiphany of stupid for me. After this, you may not hear from me again for a while. I don't have enough strength left to deride your ignorant questions and half baked comments about unimportant trivia, or any of the rest of this drivel. Duh.

The only thing worse than your logic is your manners. I have snipped away most of what you wrote, because, well... it didn't really say anything. Your attempt at constructing a creative flame was pitiful. I mean, really, stringing together a bunch of insults among a load of babbling was hardly effective... Maybe later in life, after you have learned to read, write, spell, and count, you will have more success. True, these are rudimentary skills that many of us "normal" people take for granted that everyone has an easy time of mastering. But we sometimes forget that there are "challenged" persons in this world who find these things more difficult. If I had known, that this was your case then I would have never read your post. It just wouldn't have been "right". Sort of like parking in a handicap space. I wish you the best of luck in the emotional, and social struggles that seem to be placing such a demand on you.

P.S.: You are hypocritical, greedy, violent, malevolent, vengeful, cowardly, deadly, mendacious, meretricious, loathsome, despicable, belligerent, opportunistic, barratrous, contemptible, criminal, fascistic, bigoted, racist, sexist, avaricious, tasteless, idiotic, brain-damaged, imbecilic, insane, arrogant, deceitful, demented, lame, self-righteous, Byzantine, conspiratorial, *******, fraudulent, libelous, bilious, splenetic, spastic, ignorant, clueless, illegitimate, harmful, destructive, dumb, evasive, double-talking, devious, revisionist, narrow, manipulative, paternalistic, fundamentalist, dogmatic, idolatrous, unethical, cultic, diseased, suppressive, controlling, restrictive, malignant, deceptive, dim, crazy, weird, dystopic, stifling, uncaring, plantigrade, grim, unsympathetic, jargon-spouting, censorious, secretive, aggressive, mind-numbing, abrasive, poisonous, flagrant, self-destructive, abusive, socially-********, puerile, clueless, and generally Not Good.

The forums have really been needing a cathartic event like this. A thorough ***** to cleanse the lower GI of the internet.

That being said, the title of this thread should be fixed to read "Notorious MWO forum whiners take their QQfest on the road to other video games; find out still no one cares about them."

also, I think "toxic" has to be my new favorite buzzword.

My guild? The 2 groups I play with most are planning on staying. Are you referring to DHB, my former merc corp?

I have a Connie and a Cutlass waiting for me when Star Citizen goes live (or at least closed beta). But the dogfighting module isn't exactly a destination...

That's what happens when you have to defend bad product development all the time, only so much the mind can take. Plus he's worried if the game goes completely south he's the mod of nothing. These things prey on the mind of the defenders, look how sad they have become. There used to be smart people who gave PGI the benefit of the doubt, now it's just bitter folks who happy those complaining are leaving. Of course that means less players, but if you make a poor product then less consumers equals less complainers.
The current defense boils down to people actually expected PGI do what they said in their dev blogs in a timely fashion. Since everyone apparently "knows" that these claims are just fluff "everyone" should be happy to have anything. Also game development is like the hardest ******* thing in the whole wide world.
So basically set low expectations and PGI will deliver like a pro.

Nice overlord badge. Did you not get your refund request submitted in time? Or is your credit card company having problems processing the chargeback?

The fifth succession war is over. We'll have a functional star citizen before PGI pushes out DX11 and UI 2.0. Meanwhile, cryengine 4.0, AMD mantle support, way more than 4 units on initial release, bots, transparency... You and I both know there won't be any real community left over here by summer next year.

We'll be doing space community warfare over control of missile factories before we have a java map in this game. What about walking through your hangar, or different guns looking different right away?

Sorry, man. I'll be shooting you down in my hornet before clans invade the inner sphere.

I thought Star Citizen wasn't supposed to be released until 2015? Will it even be in closed beta in 2014?

How so?
Simply based on your disagreement?
Because I'm listing why this thread belongs were it is now in my first post on page one?
Or by showcasing the misbehavior of those wannabe saviors towards MWO, its players and to PGI and IGP in other Forums, in the second and third post?

If those posts are an indication of a mental meltdown, then most of the users in the MWO-QQ thread over at CIG are way beyond redemption.

No, really...
Thank you, for thinking about my mental health. But for that to even take a scratch, there have to happen much, much worse things. This is a game! Being upset about a game or it's players isn't even worth thinking about. Read those posts again. You'll notice that I pitty those guys, who believe they need to somehow save us from MWO and/or PGI. They believe their judgement to be superior to those who, despite all the downsides MWO might have, still enjoy the game. They can not begin to imagine that they might be wrong. At least that's what I read from their posts. A superiority complex par excellence!

Maybe I am wrong about MWO or PGI or those users? Who knows? The world is a strange place!
But I'm pretty damn sure, that listening to some negative nancies to find the answer to this question, would be the wrong way.

We get to shoot things in december.
By MWO 'closed beta' definitions, it'll be a released product in two months, with 12 ships (versus MWO's 4 robots), music, graphics, and functional HUD screens.

Technology!

I mean, can you imagine playing around in your hornet, and the displays don't say AUTO DETECT: no signal?

I'm going to agree with Vass. The last Succession War is over and we lost. We just continue the mourning over on the CIG forums. The GDC presentation on F2P games struck very close to home. I suggest that everyone watch it.

It's a pre-alpha at that stage. It's possible that it will be more feature-complete than MWO will be in December, but... yeah. Good luck with that.

No, it's confirmed and guaranteed. There's more stuff in the hangar than in MWO.

You're comparing number of art assets from the the dogfighting module to MWO at the start of closed beta to determine which game is going to be better?

What other arbitrary and completely meaningless metric would you like to use to confirm your bias that MWO will be dead by next summer?
