Hello PGI,
i want to try and put this as straight and honest as possible without sounding like a whining ***** or anything.
It's about a thing, that might seem like just a sentence or a link in a post about patchnotes, but to me it had some impact on how i perceived this post here:

So, "what is it, that is like a sting in your arse about this post" you might think, here it is:

2014 and still no flying cars? Well at least the Clans are invading!
What about it?
Well, when i first read that, i was like "HOLY ****! CLANS ALLREADY THERE? INVASION? SOME EaRLY STUFF OF CW PERHAPS???"
then i clicked the link and... well... you know where it took me, and you pretty much know yourself, what else is in those patchnotes to read about clans and invasions.
This patch has absolutly NOTHING to do with any clans invading anywhere, be it the inner sphere or somewhere else, therefor this sentence does not belong into those patchnotes IMO.
Why is that?
Easy, it rises expectations when you read it and then, when you read on, those expectations are immediatly wiped out and what stays is "oh, another try to grab my money".
Don't get me wrong on that one, i know, gaming is business after all, but look at all the negative press PGI and MWO allready got. Look at how negative the community reacts to every single this or that. Sure, every community in every game is raging about certain things, but in my perception it is really extreme within MWO Forums and this has to be for a reason.
I hope you can understand what i try to say, maybe i am even the only guy who reacted like this to that post, maybe i am not, i don't know.
I probably won't play during this patch cycle, as i did not play during the last one.
Good Luck PGI
edit2: Pretty much the same goes for the stuff about the c-bill-billionaire. It doesn't have ANYTHING to do with a PATCH, so it shouldn't be in the PATCHnotes IMO.
