Well PGI it's seems that you want the people that bought Clan mechs to {quote} Suck It Up {unquote} You sold us a dream and when you got the money you said **** us, No game lasts for long when their method of treating customers after the sale is to chip away at the capabilities of the items that we paid money for.

I said in a number of post to give IS players damage, less heat, what ever that was needed to balance the game but you went the other way. You had a chance at a win, win, situation and blew it. IS pilots would have been happy to get something. But you would rather piss off the people that pay your check, keep the servers on, keep the lights on, the people that sustain the game for the people that don't and will NEVER pay a damned dime to play this game or get a mech. Never in our wildest dreams did we think you would stoop so low or consider the council of people who have a vested interest in the nerfing of out mechs.

This was my main game, the one I played after work, weekends, with friends and chilled. Well my friends don't play anymore, they said the hell with this game, but they had been here from beta now I see why. I couldn't understand why after years of investment into this game they would leave, now I know.. Total Irresponsible Management, this is the first time in 6 moths that I didn't logon, like many there is no need. who the hell wants more disappointment in the coming weeks.

So I'll close with this, I Will Not Suck It Up, I will hit you where it hurts, the only thing you understand is cold hard credit cards. I will not be back for 6 months or so, I'll wait for your new content to come out for c-bills, then I'll play the servers for free, when you nerf that to hell out of the new content I'll leave again. I will be praying that you lose the rights to Mechwarrior and hope some company more capable does a better job than PGI, shouldn't be too hard to find.

To you nerf it ass lickers, enjoy the servers that people like me paid for, while you can.

UPDATE: Just spent $100 on 17000 Mc for HAWKEN gonna buy a few mechs and try it out, too bad MWO could have been yours.

because no one else ever put money into MWO which pays for servers??

would the clanners still freak out of IS mechs were buffed? That's still nerfing clans indirectly

They flat out said they weren't going to adhere to the lore of the overpowered Clans.

If people were willing to buy the Phoenix Mechs. Then I don't see a problem. Or were you hoping for pay to win goodies?

What, just because you paid for the Clan pack, that makes you entitled for P2W? Sod off.

Without us Founders' backing of PGI, you wouldn't be able to enjoy MWO in the first place.

Trust me dude if you don't have 75% of the IS mechs like I do and all of the clan mechs then you posting in the wrong thread. This topic is way over your head.

Would it have been better if Clan weapons had stayed the same, but all the I.S. ones got a buff as well as all the armour and internal hit-points?

Obviously you haven't been around here long enough to see PGI pull similar stuff in the past.

As an Original Founder I can tell you that if you wait it out long enough, through the evaporation of the "pillars" of the game, plunging into "No 3rd person view" mantras, segueing to "Ok 3rd person BUT you will never have to play with 3rd person players", to "Well 3rd person is here and you HAVE to play with them", followed shortly after by a hearty, "You are not the target Audience", and a rousing rendition of "You are on an Island", sprinkled throughout with the chorus of "CW in 90 days" (which, if played in reverse I swear says "If we renew the license"), you will find that, well, you get kinda numb to it all and your redhot inferno of rage becomes a nice bed of coals suitable for BBQing steak on the Island of your choice.

As for your "to you nerf it ass lickers" comment, now your just being a dipsh1t. It's too broad a brush, and as such makes you look petulant and childish.

I bought the Timby.

I'm 100% in favor of the nerfs because I'm not a candy-a$$ P2W chump and I actually want the game to do well in the long run.

Good choice on Hawken but you're a little late - they really don't do P2W as much as they used to. Maybe you should keep looking for a game that lets you pay money to make up for a complete lack of skill.

Good luck on your future endeavors, be absolutely assured the rest of us will spend more to make up for your absence.

mongo2006, you are so heavily invested in this game, have (most likely) spent enough money to pay for 100 versions of me. You will be back once the next wave of clan mechs hits and you will be there when those get nerfed for the cbill versions too.

The "Don't do this or no more money!" crowd tends to keep spending large sums of money, despite them claiming otherwise. More than most other players actually.

This guy is hilarious. Someone tie him up in the cockpit of a Commando and set to max speed while we all take pot shots at it. That is the ONLY way this guy could be more entertaining.

Now the OP has realized the problem with Pay2Win.

When a game is Pay2Win, your payment of money only gives you an advantage for a while.... Inevitably, you need to pay the developers again, if you want to preserve your advantage over non paying players.

yeah better spending your money elsewhere. MWO ain't PGI's priority anymore.

If you believe their spin about keeping MWO developing I got some Nigerian friends I want to introduce to you.

You want to compare dollars spent then??? How does that make you any better than me?

Is this one of those exercises where we measures each other toja's and figure out who has the biggest, and therefore most relevent opinion?

So glad I didn't buy the clan pack. Still bought the Kit Fox pack and the Stormcow ala carte, which were fun to play.

I'm waiting for CW to be fully released before I spend money on anything else, because I'm also saving up for a big tv and a PS4.

There are right and wrong ways to state your reasons for leaving and/or refusing to support the game monetarily. Your topic is an example of one of the wrong ways.

Do you realize that nerfing clan weapons and buffing IS weapons is the same from a balance point of view, with the difference that the former doesn't decrease TTK while the latter does?

Maybe you were enjoying servers "nerf it 'ss lickers" payed for? You are not the only one who payed for this game you know?
PGI stated clans won't be OP before they even released them. They sold us a dream of clan mechs not being OP, nothing more, nothing less. Everyone right in his mind saw those nerfs coming.
And frankly speaking, after such a childish "OMG GUYZ IMA LEAVING" post no one will care about the fact that you are gone, especially not PGI.

Well whatever... this thread will be locked the second a mod sees it anyway.
