Tbh, this is what i've just done.

My rage and butthurt reached nuclear levels when I walk forward on Frozen city and a Daishi pops up and onehit kills me. Probably luck, but when i've played 8 team games in a row, and lost 7, it kinda takes any fun out of it.

Cant wait for this to come out. Will be much better than MWO.


Good you've taken your first step towards becoming a functional human being. The next step would be deleting this thread since it poses no constructive criticism. It doesn't really present an argument to speak of.

am wondering if that picture indicates the size of his hemorrhoidal issue? If so, that would at least explain the abundance of butthurt.

You've described a sizeable portion of the game's population.

perhaps if they invested in better gaming chairs, or at least cushions, then?

Do you think that would cut back on the incidence of rect@l-inflammation?

lol. I am sure if you got a free meal it would be followed by, "what no desert?" If this was star trek and money was not necessary, sure, but either we get bombarded by adware or you create an incentive to invest. Still all of us can choose. Choose to accept the free play is good enough, invest, or complain.

What I gathered from OP's post:

"I don't have the patience to wait for the Clan Mechs to come out and refuse to pay for early access to them as to support a game I like to play, so I'm going to hurt PGI by posting how Free to Play and this game is horrible until I get my way."

So... did you also boycott Santa as a kid too because Christmas was too far away?

Achieved with CRYengine.

They'll either nerf Clans or buff IS to some degree to give the impression of balancing. And then they'll launch a "Clan Buster" IS pack that will be better and we'll do the song and dance again of OP/NERF.

that would be missing the point, where they are largely balanced NOW, but hey, lot of people refuse to see the forest through the trees.

Oh, it's that time of the day again? Right, like clockwork. Maybe we should start calibrating our atomic clocks by how frequently whine and butthurt threads are posted here about the clans.

It doesn't matter if it is. There's always going to be a someone coming to the forums to vent their rage at what they perceive as imbalance.

That's why I implied they'll try to placate people with small balance changes. I personally thing that certain aspects with the Clans are stronger, but the same could be said about certain aspects about IS builds.

No no you want some crappy game about killing zombie bears in a wood, there's only one wood map, as the rest were delayed, while other pre order zombie animals were being created.

There were white zombie rabbits, and if so many people bought them, you were going to get an exclusive brown zombie rabbit that made farting noises when you shot it, but when it got released, it was just a free brown zombie rabbit, and it burped not farted..

ring any bells :ph34r:

I hear PGI has been contracted to design the Ghost heat and R Derp moduel for it..also one of the Devs sons cant master it in 2 mins so they may get the contract to do the 3PV for it.

Well, as much as I severely dislike the horrible grinding involved with getting a decent mech set up (and especially so as a new player) I doubt I would be playing this game if it wasn't free, and PGI seems to benefit quite a bit because it gives them an excuse to sell horribly overpriced content like clan mechs, which probably wouldn't work in a game that wasn't free to play.

It's a side effect of Devs wanting money without making a better product. Let's look at couple examples.

World of Tanks, Neverwinter, Rift, Tera, War Thunder, MWO...the list goes on.

Instead of focusing on providing a better product and earning the money, they all have gone through changes to extract more money from their dedicated players if they want to stay on top.

World of tanks... gold ammo spam requires premium account and even a premium tank in some cases otherwise you end up being broke (ingame credits), also direct purchases of credits.

Neverwinter and Tera.. XP boosters, premium bags, faster mounts, mats for crafting.

Rift... XP boosters, premium bags, faster rare mounts, mats for crafting, extra build options,

War Thunder.. Premium account required if you want to play high rank battles without going broke.

MWO.. Premium consumables, C-weapons vs standard weapons. etc. The next step for MWO is increasing the repair and ammo costs to the extreme where the only way you can make a profit is by running a premium account or worse, adding premium weapons that can only be bought with money.
