Do NOT frickin' "BWONGG!!!" me. If you "BWONG" me, things will not go well for you. Tell me what I did in my browser, after. Don't get golden piss showers all over my Mech game.

Thanks!

My new quote for match start! Thanks!

Why all the assumption that there will be rewards? I highly doubt there will be. Most games I've played don't give rewards.

Most I do GIVE rewards.

Examples:
LotRO - usually TP (their equal of MC) in amounts of 5, 10, 15 and sometimes 20; rarely a new class skill unlock.
DCUO - gives feat points, when you reach a certain level of FP, you get a skill point.

It was stated on NGNG that the achievements would be associated with rewards like mechs and cbill bonuses, and that stats had to be reset so everyone could participate. I only quoted your first question, because I physically cannot roll my eyes enough at the melodramatic incredulity that followed that first question mark.


Oh God... My eyes feel like they're gonna roll out of my head at this point.



M'aiq the liar plays MWO?

Whatever.
This is what I posted$
"Resets, sales, tournaments, blah blah blah.

Stats on racks, stats with hats, rats with stats?

Spiraling into the abyss of mediocrity, I say, "Nay Nay."

¥et, my hopes have not utterly left me eh?

I am average, older, and, I like ice cream. I want conent or ?

Whatever, I am just more-blah blah blah....You call me a liar?

Do I play?"

I play. Maybe not as much or as good as you, but I play, and have read many of the books this game is based on.
I am tired of the chitter chatter of little girls, telling all, what is the matter.
Was it the content, which I desire, that makes you puke?
Or is it that I am bored with the slowness of which our lover PGI meets our needs. The hope to hold a planet to, the ground our mechs are dropped on, the ground as a mercenary, I am paid to protect.

Stats on racks=boring like kmart clothing
Stats with hats=boring, dressed up a bit
Rats with stats=geeks that think stats are more important than the game.

I like ice cream.hence, I will never change a light bulb.

Shoot me cause I was being light hearted. Just remind me where I know you from, I have attention deficit disorder, hence the I like ice cream ;^)

One of the most disappointing decisions for me.

My stats is my history. I have about 9000 matches played, 2.27 kdr etc. Why it all should be vanished? Why should I fight to get "first 1000 matches" achievement instead of getting 10 000 matches achievement?

I understand why the guys with low kdr welcome stats refreshing, but don't you think that this decision can discourage your players corebase, ppl who tried hard to have good results?

I support achievement system, but I can't understand why you have to wipe out all of my stats to implement it.

So stats need to be reset BECAUSE of match making inconsistancy. Yet they are not even going to FIX the match making system BEFORE they reset the stats. *(facepalm)*

Stats need to be reset so people who've been playing longer don't get a whole bunch of Achievements retroactively added to their accounts. *facepalm*

yeah, thx you PGI for not allowing me to get my earned achievements. I spent a lot of money on you, now I see your gratitude.

[Mims]

Yea that's fine and dandy, but they could have waited to release the achievement system too. Not fixing the match making before reseting the stats is kind of a lame move. And in this case i believe they are out of order.

>COD comparisons
>allofmywut.pdf

If anything this game should be compared to World of Tanks or War Thunder. It's a direct competitor to those games. It's only natural to add a similar achievement system to the likes of WoT.

[kesuga7]

well stats say the dragon 5n/aws,9m is one of my best mechs so theres that at least

but yeah stat reset isn't too much of a biggie

but if you really miss your stats take a picture of your current ones and then after 1 month or 2 after stat reset system add both of them up
like adding the win/losses in both then ratio

Actually they promised a reset of stats months ago when they first announced there would be an achievement system.

Feels kinda like a year ago...

Would be cool if achievements were rewarded with gxp, cbills or... champion mechs

It would be nice, but that's asking too much of PGI. So, we're probably not getting any of that.

So if we're getting a stat reset, does that mean that all the Founders who never got the Cadet Bonus will finally get that now?

AFAIK, when the cadet bonus thing was instituted, PGI has "inserted" said C-bills to the account based on the # of games played.

The thing is, the Cadet Bonus as far as I'm told can be influenced by Premium Time (a free collectible day when you download the game), which would effectively increase the gains further (you could collect 12 million C-bills total instead of 8, if you can grind the 25 matches in the same day). This is a lesser-well known secret.

So... yea... no.

Edit:
I'd like to also mention that the free mech giveaway (Centurion-A Champion + mechbay) did come with bugs.
