They already stated they got dedicated mech designers and that that is a well oiled machine

If only they animated the clan mechs to move like well oiled machines instead of chickens with a broom up their eggchute and arthritic feet.


as for mwll, I don' t think tht after being shutdown the way they were....
well you get it, don' t you??

No. No it didn't. If the game launched we'd be fighting over planets, and capturing factories. A launch means you have the game not a combat engine with shiny bits.

if you were developing the game I would agree, because its usually the job of the person who makes something to deem when that something is good enough for the world to see - and in video games that also means saying when the game has been "launched"

you really should deal with it better than going into cognitive dissonance, beacause the longer you keep that hum the harder the fall will be if you ever finally accept reality as truth.

PGI has a few years to kill before CW. I would expect them to launch more mech packs. Heck, they will launch another mech pack before we get a new map. They will launch 3 or more packs before we get a new game mode.

No cognitive dissonance here. Launch would be I am playing the game in full. With a goal. What we have is a Demo until such a time as we can start trying to win the invasion the game has not been launched, cause that is the game needing to considered a launch. Now once the Invasion has begun if I still say the game hasn't launched then it will be sour grapes.

[Ph30nix]

priority should go to more clan mechs,

like 80+ IS mechs (all variants) vs 12 clan?

Depends on what mechs they are.

For example, if they somehow got Harmony Gold into a coma and we had proper looking Warhammers, Archers, Marauders and such? They couldn't get my money fast enough.

Your goal is to grind up enough c-bills to buy your own star system, when CW launches.

Oh, understood. I was more admitting my own weakness (nostalgia) than anything else.

Actually as a mere grunt in the Law... No. But as a Full Command... Outreach would be acceptable!

[Levi Porphyrogenitus]

CW Phase 1 will be launched in a week or two.

I expect two major mech packs to follow at some point. A Clan Response Pack (ClanBuster Pack or some other alternative name would be possible), and a Clan Second Wave Pack.

The CRP should include at least 4 mechs (1 per class), and I recommend the following: Mongoose, Wyvern, Black Knight, King Crab. The CSWP should also include 4 mechs (1 per class), and I recommend the following: Koshi, Fenris, Vulture, and Man O' War.

Then I expect CW Phase 2 to become the focus of resources. I expect it to include Faction Warfare (proper CW, really), with Loyalty Points, the IS map, new achievements and unlocks, etc.

Well I don't own a restaurant but if they bring me 3 eggs, ham, cheese, and green peppers Uncooked and call it an Omelette... I'm gonna talk to the cook! Not delusional, Expectant.

I expect when a item is Launched, it is ready to go, with all the bells and whistles. The game at launch was not even 50% finished. I'd be humiliated if it was MY game and I launched it!

which explains why you spent money on this game. It's okay, me too. They got me good with the founders.

criticism about the game should be given to designated community representatives, like Nikolai for example.

of course he'll probably tell you what I'm about to: If you don't like it too bad but you are free to leave at any time. Good Luck.

If they release another Clan pach, a really cool thing would be to make it themed.

This is false Both IGP/PGI, AND the MWLL team have stated that PGI had no bearing on the decision to discontinue MWLL... please stop thinking it did.

This was a rumor that started on the LL forums with users... and spread out of control. Please stop perpetuating a myth.

While I get where you're coming from, I have to agree with the other guy.

if MWO got the Warhammer, Marauder, Archer, Wasp, and Phoenix Hawk mechs... I'd literally pay them till I was broke.

Yes, I agree, we need more of OTHER content. but give me the rest of the unseen, and you can have all my paychecks, why? Because I am THAT nostalgic for those mechs... I don't care if they're the worst mechs in the game... I WANT THEM.

[Monsoon]

As some have stated, I guess it would depend on what it was, a Phoenix Pack Phase 2 with the Warhammer, Marauder MkI & MkII, Phoenix Hawk, Wasp, Archer, Stinger, Valkyrie, Rifleman, Crusader, Longbow, Ostscout, Ostroc, Ostsol, Super Wasp and the Super Griffin.

With some of these being more of an interest to me than others.

As for Clan mechs, I really want my Vulture, but I can wait patiently for it to come out for CBills, when ever that happens, the same applies to just about any other chassis as well.

[Delas Ting Usee]

I will feel...anger...disappointment...mostly ANGER...at some point some of us will have to finally decide that PGI has crossed the line. And then choose to further support them or walk away.
