Not a flipping penny...

I've reaped more enjoyment from this single game, warts and all than all the games I've purchased combined.


In fairness... I bought some outright dreck in my younger less informed days.

[Tastian]

Not sure how much money I've spent (maybe $300+). I've only played a couple matches in the last month. But I'll will say this: I have played and enjoyed every penny I've spent on this game. Even if I never play again, they earned my money.

I wouldnt

I would love a refund or a partial credit on MC and premium time spent leveling chassis that were completely changed after each quirk pass.

I sold 25 mechs from my stable with this new quriks pass making them an obsolete cassis. I did some rough math and it was right around $200 spent for MC, premium time, paint and cammos to get the mechs where I wanted them. That doesn't even include the hours and DAYS of time spent grinding XP and modules.

Granted it was my choice to delete the mechs. Its just funny how a thing like a small quirk pass can totally negate $200 and days of time. I've never experienced such harsh, rash, and completely drastic changes from any other game I've played.

I'm extremely unhappy with quriks, and PGIs lack of ability to balance the game.

I don't even want to get started on the crap the art team has pulled recently either. Quality of work has been spiraling out of control since the end of beta and the switch to 12 mans.

TLDR; in a heartbeat I would take a refund. As much as I love the BT series and as long as I've waited for a revival of the series the current state of game after the years of development is seriously lack luster.

No not at all.
But let at a little fuel to the fire.

[Jonathan Paine]

Nah, I've played more hours than I care to admit. My $/hr is non-existent for this game.

Not this little black duck. My favourite mech in the history of mechs was nerfed, and i'm still here.

[LordNothing]

while i am disappointed with how much i spent on this game and how little the game has improved since ive been playing. im not about to cash it all in and leave.

while the new mechs are a good way to fund ongoing development, i somehow feel that most of it is spent on bringing out even more mech packages for players to buy. new mechs are nice, but not when you are sick of all the maps and game modes. doing that might get you more money faster, but not if people get bored and start going elsewhere. to prevent that from happening you need to bring in other non mech content to keep things interesting.

Of course. Absolutely. I've spent ~$750 on this game so far and have happily played it for 3+ years.

But get back all $750 in exchange for never playing it again? HELL YES.

Geez, people, there are a ton of other games out there that are fun to play. I've gotten a mostly fun 3+ years out of MWO, but I could easily switch to Star Citizen or Elite Dangerous or any number of other games.

To me it's really kind of a dumb question. MWO is fun, but it's not THAT fun. I could switch to something else in a heartbeat, and really only keep playing due to inertia. But PAY me to switch? Dude, sign me up!

And yes, that should scare PGI. It should scare the **** out of them.

Not really. Because no one is going to pay you to stop playing MWO. Who the hell would do that?

On what grounds would you receive this refund? Theyve even put CW into he game now, so its not like they didnt deliver their promises.

If you dont want to play, take the money hit as a lesson and move on.

You sir. Are my hero? I could never dump that much into a game unless the devs appreciated my opinion and feedback on changes.

$750 could get a new turbo and retune for my car, or some in ears for when I play shows, or a mild built rig.

[LordNothing]

they did half ass on it. cw games are not that well thought out. every upgrade to it seems like a bandaid to fix an exploit. the whole counter attack mode is a dirty hack at best. teams aren't skill matched either. its hardly fun if its all little tykes footbal vs nfl. i joined a 12 man and it felt like highschool football vs nfl. why cant it be like starcraft 2 where it matches you up with players/teams in your own skill level?

Pay attention, much? The point of the thread totally went over your heads, didn't it?

I'm not asking for a refund. That isn't the point of the thread.

The point is that if it were offered, would you take it? Of course it isn't going to be offered. Duh.

Probably has something to do with the lack of a huge player base.

[DasSibby]

Nope, I grew up with Mechwarrior, and even if I didn't like the game currently (Spoiler: I love it now!), I wouldn't ask for a refund.

It was money well spent, and I enjoyed myself.

To many happy returns! *Cheers*
