Who the hell schedules a major playtest at the exact same time as the start of the World Cup? Really? You sell all those flags to adorn the interior of our mechs and it doesn't dawn on you what most of the citizens of the world will be doing at 2:15 PM EST on June 12th 2014?

Love to play with the new toys but unfortunately there is something bigger going on.

If its not hockey its not important.

[MisterPlanetarian]

I'm more of a Hockey guy anyway but the world cup opening is always uneventful.

I always wait untill the knock out rounds start after the group play and Ronaldo get to cry about loosing out on a final once more. As long as Portugals Ronaldo or Brazil won't win I honestly don't give a ****. Go Germany.

And for you Americans out there: The FIFA World Cup is the largest, most watched sporting event in the world, even larger than the summer olympics.

Which day was the better day again?

[Livewyr]

I care about the world cup, about as much as I care about the Olympics...

(I only care enough about the Stanley Cup or World Series to troll my Chicago based friends when they don't make it, or lose.)

Admittedly, the superbowl does have some of my attention, sometimes.

All the games people have money on are tomorrow anyway. Who gives a **** about Brazil vs Croatia?

The Brazilians and the Croatians?

[Bhael Fire]

Honestly, I'm proud to say I have no idea wtf a world cup is. I'm assuming it's a "sports" thing? Quiaff?

Yeah, no thanks. I don't get off on watching other people running around playing grabass or footsie.

If there's any assgrabbing or footsiing going on, I want to be the one doing it. Not watching some jerkholes halfway across the globe doing it. Sorry.

[Bobzilla]

OP, you care about sports? Yet come on a video game forum to complain about a test server schedualing flaw? You are going to get kicked out of the the nerd tree club.

As a Cubs / Bears / Blackhawks fan, I hate you. Die Dezgra.

I think the Brazillians are due to kill another ref.

It should be. In fact we should do what Germany failed to do and thats conquer the world. You will embrace our ideals or you will all die hahahaha!!!!

Seriously America lets conquer everything, take all resources then well we win nuff said.

[Naduk]

hahahaha i cant believe this is a real thread

[Cervantes88]

I'm european and I don't give a single f*ck about the world cup.

Granted I also don't give a f*ck about the playtest thing. We all know it's going to be a shitstorm regardless of any amount of testing being done.

Now what exactly am I doing here... *tired*

I think a better question is why y'all can't wait 5 whole days to play your new Mechs? Just don't do the play test, have a beer, watch the beautiful game.

But the OP is right. If it was Stanley Cup, PGI would be closed.

[Diomed]

World Cup? You mean your boring sport analog that replaces your nationalistic fervor for failed or lost imperial holdings? No thanks. I'd rather watch paint dry.

[ktKAPS]

I feel a new game type coming on Mech Soccer anybody anybody, lol.
