Hey PGI, is there a chance you could add a tab to the Community or Game tab so we can see the Community Warfare map in real time? (or at least day-to-day?) it would be nice for us to be able to see what planets are under attack/being defended at certain times, and would be nice to see what's happening when traveling or at lunch.

I honestly don't know how difficult/easy such a task would be, but I'm sure I'm not the only person here who would appreciate it

Seconded. I'm on here to check how the War is going for everyone while I'm on lunch at work.

I can't install the game client here. :ph34r:

probably wasn't a great idea to start this thread at 3:00 AM PST, but at least it got some people's attention. Good to see I'm not alone.

Russ tweeted that they have a working API or something like that.

+1 indeed. Also, can we see and interact with the Map while we wait to Drop please. It is right there, BEHIND the loading screen. Just move it to up 2 levels. :)

Here is the data, PGI is giving it out, I assume because they are not interested in a recreating the map.

Yes and bring back Comstar news like you had in the begining. CW is still missing a meta feel to it.

I was figuring a web based CW map was not going to be available from PGI right off the bat, so i've been working on a MWO news blog.

Currently have a first draft of a CW java based map that one can view the differant days.

Going to be continually updating and improving. Just found out it doesn't look the best on a phone at the moment.

Hopefully somepeople will find it useful.
