It's just not the 5 I was waiting for in many ways, I do understand the free to play model, and their wasn't a MW that I didn't play for years, but to play this for years I have to PAY for years, cuz lets face it, nothing is free, Legendary, Elite and Veteran, no free models, the Mech Warrior Universe has now been monetized, don't get me wrong, I will pay for a game, but I wont pay for another Blizzard model, and I smell 'pay' and 'pay' and 'pay'.

I completely agree that developers should absolutely positively be paid for their work, I do not pirate anything, I do use open source software to my hearts content and yes I know that this is NOT open source.

I don't like the model, I have not seen anything beyond artwork, I have had forum posts deleted for being excited about playing (political correctness has come to forums), I will have to pay for gamer bandwidth, big time hardware to be competitive, which I don't mind, I'll have to buy mechs to try them, I dont know the load outs, I dont know about repairs or spawns or spawn points but I do know that a bunch of people are going to have a FOREVER advantage because they did pay.

So keep it Piranha, Legendary, Elite and Veterans, that have never played, keep it, I'm just pissed that I invested this much time already. So delete me, whatever.....

This is not MW5, good luck but I have better things to do...

If all you've seen so far is artwork then you're looking in the wrong place my friend.

Understand your frustration as we all have some kind of frustration over one thing or another but THIS game was never meant to be MW5. Dont bow out just yet my friend... GREAT things are coming.

Ehm... again - why exactly won't you wait until it's released and judge after you have actually played the game? :)

The "FOREVER" advantage, eh? While it is true that MWO will be judged by the product they release and update in the coming years, with the current proposed game, the advantage from paying only determines one's speed at which they progress through the content, and the advantage they get will only determine the options they have for the battlefield, but the rest will be determined by the skill of the player. And frankly, with sufficient time, a non-paying player will be on even par, the only difference being that one has a larger c-bill account balance than the other. Now stop your pity party about "Boo Hoo, I can't stand the fact that those paying money will actually consume content faster". We've had enough of that crap on the forums.

Let's see, according to your profile, you've been a member here since April, and you've made a total of 14 posts? My oh my, you've just invested "so much time", and you've posted sooooo much around here, that all your efforts of whining about how unconvinced you are about this game have gone to complete waste. Thanks for the self-serving post to cap off your days here. Now leave. Proper debate on the facts presented are wanted, your senseless whining isn't. Don't let the door hit you on the way out.

OP you talked yourself right out of things. From your tone (extremely negative about everything) there's no need to go any further. Hope you find what your looking for.

I'm curious about why you felt the need to tell the forum. I don't want to be rude, but why should anyone here care about what you do?

Look at it this way:

WoW = $15 a month (which comes out to $180 per year - rough math)

MWO, you can pay $120 to start yourself off, which comes out to $10 a month (assuming you don't spend more during 1 year). AND, not to mention, you don't have to pay 1 cent if you don't want to.

Which one do you think offers better value over the course of 1 year?

That's my take on it and that's why I went for the Legendary Package. But PGI never twisted my arm telling me I was forced to pay. I chose to do it to support the devs.

Yup... Epic "look at me" thread.

Or maybe a cleverly veiled, "gimme a beta key or else" thread.

So what don't you like about the pay model exactly?

Or... well they haven't announced any details yet so... hm. That must be a hard question for you to answer, I'll let you be. but don't worry, I'm sure you'll find some reason to make yourself angry, just keep at it!

So your decision is based entirely on your own opinions which you admit are based on no actual facts. Further, you state you've only seen art, when there are multiple videos online (on this website, and on others) which show game play.

Your decision is at best misinformed and illogical.
