Didn't they just put out a patch that aimed to balance clan weapons? And didn't they host a public test a couple weeks ago to test those changes, and the new map, and an attempt at fixing disco's?

What exactly do you expect as immediate improvements?

They fixed nothing. And where are the loyalty points and what us the excuse for the horrendous UI 2.0? That's what I thought...

Fantastic! The next step is to send a few people over to "talk" to Harmony Gold so that we can have our Stingers, Archers, Warhammers, and Marauders (among others).

[by "talk" I mean "forcibly take all their stuff and give them the appropriate number of wedgies and swirlies for their greed"]

Greetings MechWarriors,

Please leave us your thoughts, comments, concerns or questions regarding Russ' latest Command Chair Update:

JOY!!!!!

IGP for whatever reason, seriously mishandled MWT thru 2 dev teams, and has left it to rot. Until now, one cannot tell if the issues with this game are all PGI, or bean counter related from IGP. Now, success or fail it lies with PGI. Lets roll.

[Tristan Winter]

I'm not even going to be snarky about this.

Good news. Glad to hear it. Best of luck.

[Davoke]

Finally stuff might get done. Hallelujah.

[NoSkillRush]

well that is good news.

Who is the new sugar daddy? None? Let's sell the "gamers" some more digitally gold-plated mechs for $500. LOL.

Today IGP, tomorrow, Harmony Gold?



...I wish

This...would make a hilarious conspiracy theory.

[DeathofSelf]

I very much doubt this changes much of anything as far as the players are concerned, other than maybe sales, but I stopped spending money on this crap fest long ago

[Clit Beastwood]

I am optimistic.

[Wintersdark]

Fewer stakeholders means easier development - For good or ill, PGI will be able to take MWO in the direction they feel it should go with less oversight.

I think this is a great thing - not that IGP was bad for MWO or good (I don't know enough to make that call) but it's long been my experience that removing extra folks (particularly "outside" people) who need to sign off on changes or can pressure the product into what they feel it should be, the better.

[Asaru]

This is great news both for MWO community and PGI.

This more than anything else should indicate PGI's commitment to MWO and the Battletech IP.

[Ghost Rider LSOV]

I really hope this means that there's a bright future ahead for MWO.

[aniviron]

Does this mean that things which were alleged to be the result of publisher pressure (3pv, consumables) are going to get revisited?

Why hasn't the game seem any improvement over the last month if you've been operating under the new model already? Typically, when you cut some inefficiency out of a process you see immediate improvements. Here, it's just business as usual. No better, no worse... Just the same.

to be fair, the game has changed immensely in the last few months. from clan packs, to the multiple weapon patch/balance updates, to the current challenges and CW module.

[Tannhauser Gate]
