Someone should listen to the last couple AMAs.
This is directly addressed, free of IGP, by Russ as "not wanting to give them 33%" and how they "shouldn't have to." He also confirmed that pricing was heavily PGI's decision, and while decals/paint might be looked at, not much is being looked at elsewhere - except going to a Mech Pack only system.
So I stand by everything I just said. Even if 33% is set in stone for them, if it increases the paying player base over 33%, then it's worth doing. If it increases it WELL over 33% (since MW would have advertising then) then it's really worth doing.
I do hope PGI reconsiders next year. I do agree now is not the time to put it on Steam. It needs the major underlying issues and features finished first.
