White knights defending PGI are only brand new players. You guys look silly to the rest of us who have been in this game from the beginning since closed beta. Those of us who are now completely done with PGI and their BS.

[James Montana]

So does this mean they can finally stop making mechs and start making the rest of the game?

[zudukai]

When a forest pgi grows too wild, a purging fire is inevitable and natural. Tomorrow, the world community will watch in horror as its greatest city game destroys itself.

This completely sums it up.

What I was expecting, was what MechWarrior 2 offered.

They have stated many, many times, a long time ago, that PvE would never see the light of day, I accepted that.

They are giving me more mechs and maps to play on.

Talking out my what, though?

For the record, I was never "expecting" PvE either. A co-op mode option would really have been nice, but I didn't expect it.

What bothers me with your various statements is that you are so dismissive of PGI failing to deliver on a core feature.... that feature being CW. You can split hairs and be contrary if you want, but community warfare was ADVERTISED as a feature.

We are pissed because "more mechs" is the last thing a lot of us want. Fake-Clan Mechs even less so. PERIOD. AND WE HAVE EVERY REASONABLE RIGHT TO BE PISSED.

What you are arguing is not reasonable. It is inflammatory and selectively ignoring issues. At worst, you look like someone who works for PGI. At best, you look like an apologist. With a title like "Whiteknight", that only makes you look more suspicious.

Yeah, I really dont get the variant thing. Whats up with that anyway?

Oh my then mechcommander 1-2 and mechwarrior 2-3 are horrible then to cause they had clan mech variants. Worse thing ever

No, there's still wallets to molest out there somewhere!

[GalaxyBluestar]

greatest joke in gaming history.

no gold ammo just gold mechs for actuall gold.

no idea of their scaling, weapons/ mechlab tinkering capabilities, deployment. and asked of before UI 2 is even implemented let alone a scarric of the 2011 fabled community warfare.

[Ryvucz]

For sure, I would be more upset once development has stopped.

But given that PGI is not EA, BioWare or SOE, they have my loyalty up until the breaking point.

I understand some people's breaking points differ from person to person, but the fact these won't be injected until June 17th 2014 and being angry at them for it...

... seems way too harsh.

This has to be the most preposterous video game I've ever seen.

At $500- hell even at $240 a pop - you're not a gamer you're a ******* investor!

Remember when you used to just pay $60 and you got the ENTIRE game? And then the company didn't ask you for money again until the expansion came out? And when the expansion came out it was... well, you know, complete!? This **** has been flying by the seat of its pants and our cash for years now.

Wouldn't that be nice. . .

No thanks. This is going to become P2W. And I'm going to leave if it does. Shame though. I loved this game.

$500 gold mechs are insulting. I was considering the full collection before I saw those, still might swing for it but damn that's just a slap in the face.

What? How? If someone wants to pay $500 for a vanity mech, it's all them. You are crying about absolutely nothing. How does this even affect you?

[giganova]

Not buying.

Show me exactly what they promised you.

Role warfare, no third person, no coolant, Community warefare, and all by 2012.....

[Midnight Blue]

PGI is clearly in over their head, I've figured that from the start, but this proves it. Can't seem to do something productive like get CW or UI2.0 out, but they keep pumping out packages.. its like the ****** at work who can't do his job, but damn is he good on the coffee machine.

Funny story, people have been screaming Pay to Win since Yen Lo Wang.

Why then on the Founders pack and the Project Phoenix package did they put them by weight class? On these packs they put them in order of popularity = cash grab. If not then the Dashi would be at the top and not the Masakari.

Wow really? REALLY!?

Instead of one group of mechs we get two. If you noticed they went Light > Medium > Heavy > Assault on both groups. So evil how dare they give us more than 1 mech of each weight class.

[Agent Cooper]

Ok, I can understand having to come up with ways to get money from us to keep paying your staff, but holy {Scrap} give me a new game mode at the very least before introducing the Clans.
Give me the new UI and CW for crying out loud. Hell, give me the high rez images of the Phoenix mechs first.
Getting REAL hard to keep coming back.

You realize the stuff they are doing is ripped straight for EA's playbook. This is the same type of thing, just a money grab.
