These guys used to have ~20 posts a day on these forums. Did the whole "no groups larger than 4" thing really make them leave? I'm sad. I miss their troll posts.

Pretty much, yeah.

It wasn't JUST that, but that was the "final straw" or whatever.

I think they have focused more on running the House Marik Forums and training their units...

According to Sand's latest posts..... no

He has been ranting about how much better other games are, and how much happier he is now that he has stopped playing MWO and started playing said better games.

Since im pretty much a forumite myself I was wondering where they have gone. Wonder if the clans might actually bring people back, but it is like another 2 months till the first goes cbills.

I'm pretty sure Roadbeer was tweeting Ross about clan tech on Thursday.

When the devs announced that 5-11 groups would be delayed, they showed their lack of integrity by turning into the very kind of belligerents they'd been trolling. No big loss.

Roadbeer has been getting a bit testy w/the devs on twitter and Sandpit has turned into the Incredible Hulk. You can only push a man so far.

Well I may on and off be a negative ******* but I was impressed with the level of effort/balance I seen on the clan test, and I am still having fun ingame.

Cant really comment on the 5-11 groups sizes tho as I mostly play alone or in a 2man group. But as mostly a solo pugger I will say from the other side that groups of 5-11 that constantly dominate while my team has to pause and type to plan/communicate would be terrible. Quickly selectable commands/text from a list or voice chat needs to be added first before large groups stomp us (more than currently) all and make the new people quit.

There are plenty of reasons to be frustrated, and if the game stops being fun, it's time to bounce. Not sure about hulking out on the forums though.

The game stagnated and there is nothing to do after. But wait you can play mech warrior! Oh I've been doing that for the past 2 years. There is no social warfare, no plants to take, not rank ladders, nothing to loose, and nothing to gain that can't be bought with either time or cash.


For me I've lost my passion for this game. The only difference between now and beta is what? fixes and clan mechs.

IE patches and more mechs.
