Out of curiosity (and this is kind of the point of the thread), what does "upping their game" mean to you? Other than cheaper stuff?

In general improving the new player experience, a new pricing scheme, increasing map production, using more than 4 colors in a single map...

I'm not saying that they haven't improved since the IGP split, but that I still feel they could do better.

Yeah, and those 4 colors being, Flat Black, Black, Brown and Dark Brown

I logged in to like all of the PvE recommendations.
For I, too, long for a PvE Component. Especially one that allows me to Co-Op with my Friends (I have three other guys I play with weekly and we all rock MWO from time to time).
Something akin to Star Conflict- You queue up, it gives you a random 4-player mission among several to choose from, and done. Doing something like this, with the CW drop deck style respawning, would be amazing.

I admit, the hardest part would be to make the AI competent enough to pose a challenge, especially for something as complicated as a Mech. I see this as being the real catching point in making a PvE component for this game.

Still, I'd pay money for it. And, I'd buy and play more mechs for it as well... Mechs like the Quickdraw, Enforcer or Zeus, where I have no desire to even touch them now, because they're not Timberwolf/Stormcrow/Direwolf.

A game that had me as pumped as I was when I watched @30s:

Ok ... I love this game, that's why I rage sometimes.

Asia Pacific Servers
FOV config to work - anyone got that working? Mine doesn't register?

Yeah, and in MWO, where 90 point lolphas are the name of the game, unless the AI had 0heat generation and could PPFLD us just like we do to them, which ultimately would just make the game stupid as ****.......that would be the only way...

Basically what equates in a shooter game to the AI insta headshotting you as soon as you poke your head in their LoS from 560miles away.....just..poke around a corner....190dmg to your CT, your dead....

[Alex Morgaine]

Yeah I think infantry, non mechs and auburn airborne (stupid phone) units would toss my money out at them. maybe a "build a bear" industrial mech builder xD

1) Mix and Match Packs - Clan USD 140, IS USD 100. Allow mix of any one light, med, heavy, assault. Current options of 1) existing clan wave I/II / Resistance packs are just not compelling cause they tend to include mechs you would just never play; 2) the ala carte option of 55+50+45+40 = USD 190 for 4 mechs is just way over the top. Since packs are too restrictive and alacarte is too expensive, that leaves MC buy (unlikely) and Cbill buy (most likely). As such, to entice me to handover a bit more than USD 50, probably a little bit more bang for the buck would be appreciated.

2) Themed Packs - a) "Most Wanted" Clan Pack featuring Arctic Cheetah, Shadowcat, Cauldron Born, (Insert choice of Omni Assault); 2nd Line Clan Pack featuring Kodiak, Grizzly, etc; c) Comstar IS Pack featuring Mongoose, Annihilator, Exterminator, Assasin??

3) Next wave of weapons: Arrow IV, Thumper come to mind - Specialist Mech Pack ??

4) Confirmed roadmap for 2016! If 2015 == Community Warfare; May 2016 be Solaris - with a themed CW competition based on Tukayyid (With additional clans, mechs etc)

PS: I don't think the IS needs another laser boat (aka black knight); nor the Mauler, while iconic, probably will get "Awesome-like" hit boxes.

[Bloodweaver]

An Executioner. Or a Cauldron Born. Or a Shadowcat.

[Chronic Rune]

16 new clan mechs for the price of 12

[Brody319]

I bet at least half of you broke your promise for Clan wave 3.

[Xythius]

PGI releasing Clan Wave III, apparently...

Honestly?

Packs with things I like.
Cauldron born, bushwhacker certain lights.
Melee
Vehicles (tanks, flyers, elementals)

Goddamit.

No, really, ****.
May not go for the Assault, but likely up to the heavy.

[SpessMarine]

More maps, bigger maps, released more frequently! I see the Wave III release and my first thought is: 'Cool, but a Shadowcat won't make Terra Firma any less awful than it is now'. As is, a lot of these mechs really dont play that different from each other because the maps restrain tactics so much. I'd pay 50 for Solaris mode

hahaha I knew this would happen and Its all the more sweet!

"I require this list of things if you want my money PGI"
*PGI releases mech pack*
"Take my money PGI!"

[Bhael Fire]

I'll buy whatever they release.

Except for $500 gold mechs.

The Clans need more mechs to choose from. It was a given they would be adding more soon.

[riverslq]

Have pugs that want to do something different for once.
not just sit in one large blob at the same point on every map.

[Metus regem]

At this point, as an update to what I said before, if they Ebon Jaguar looks good, I'll plunk some more cash down.
