@Kodyn

So just to be clear, you agree that there is no 'solo mode' in MWO, but there are people who 'think that they are solo players' (even though the reality is there is no solo mode), and that trial mechs should not be allowed in a 'finished' CW....and your issue with my tread/posts is how I explained my position?

Basically, if you point is that I act like a D-Bag / A-Hole...I'm not going to disagree with you. I don't try to be, I don't want to be, but I'll be damned if I don't come off that way in spite of my efforts.

That said, please don't let my failures at written communication stop you from openly acknowledging when you agree with me on a position. (I know I suck at writing, if spelling / grammar check didn't exist every 3rd word would be wrong, I am very aware just how much I SUCK).

To be fair it is a HUGE thread now, but it is good to know that at least SOME people get what I was TRYING saying (in spite of the fact that I am horrible with written communication). You have warmed my heart xX PUG Xx!!!

To be clear to the OP, as long as you realize that you are always part of a team, play like you are part of a team, and DON'T take trial mechs, you are welcome in any drop I am a part of !!!! (of course that means you are no longer a 'solo' player....even if you are dropping alone)

Did I, or did I not advise you on the first page seventh page, to change your OP, or at least the title, to better explain what you meant, in order to avoid the mix up?

No, not really. It's just taking PGI too long to introduce features into it. Honestly, just boosting the rewards, and adding a gating system would give the mode a LOT of life. They can then add value to planets afterwards, and that would basically secure the mode.

CW not bringing players or money, PGI will likely not focus its resource on it much.

CW is their end-game. It's the mode they want to build completely, so I can't see them abandoning it. Especially since abandoning it will instantly kill the game. So maintaining it allows them to get money.

[Kodyn]

Yes Armando, that was basically what I was getting at.

The reason I felt that strongly about it is that it's something I've been known to do myself, so I'm tending to notice it a lot more in others now, as I work to break that same habit. I realized it was really hurting a lot of my arguments, and probably just making me look like a bigger **** to people than I actually am. (I am a pretty big ****, just not as bad as I allowed myself to come off.)

lol, yet no population. larger population -> larger customer base.

They are going to run out of patience with this mode.

Most of us don't drop in CW often because we're lacking the content I mentioned in my earlier post. Much of it is going to be delivered within the next few months. So I don't see your point. The mode can die for the next few months for all I care. Once PGI adds those features, you can bet the population will spring back up.

You really don't get it. it is not lack of feature. it is the toxic community in CW

Population # speaks louder than words. Actions have been taken, most abandoned CW. Honestly, nobody will give a damn if PGI just shut CW down.

There is no authority on CW besides PGI. Nothing says you have take action on opinions of people on the forums.

Most of these threads are just people arguing among themselves in an echo chamber.

Lets start with the bleeding lump of colon cancer that made the OP for the following thread, and go from there.

The thread title is misleading, its more or less genuine frustration over clubbing seals because of all the solos making entire 12s.

Actually buddy, the Unit I'm with play CW every chance we get and if there is a shortage of people online I play it solo. In fact the only time I play in the public queues is during Lance practice (even this is happening in CW more often) and during ceasefire.

(Oh 555 posts, instantly made me feel like dusting off Colin Macrae Rally )

What confuses me is that people take guys like that Armando dip seriously....

He's just a guy who thinks his way is the only way, and everyone should play like him. He then pretends it's for the good of the players, etc, when it's all really just his ego and controlling nature.

Why on earth do you even give him the time of day? Do what you want to do, this game was designed to allow you access to CW as a solo, in whatever 4 mechs you can bring within tonnage.

Sure, you might suck, but who cares? It's the second beta of CW, no one gives a rat's ass, have fun.

Guys like Armando? In real life they get headbutted and thrown in a closet at the party because everyone is tired of listening to their crap.

You seem out of touch with solo players. I have read through the complaints of many solos and they are tired of getting steamrolled by units. Its either the #1 or #2 issue for many.

Somebody tries to address the problem or maybe get PGI's attention (in futility) and people like you pitch in with the usual stupidity.

@ Kodyn

Naw brother, I am just some scrub who fancies myself as being 'l33t' who has no real clue about what MWO is, or how to make it better. No one who reads anything I post will ever learn anything and everyone with half a brain who reads anything I have to post will be insulted and angry. I am the lowest of the low!

Nobody really reads your posts or is even persuadable anyways. Its really just a party line issue now where units are evil and solos are the helpless victims.

I know Armando, played with this guy quite a while now. He's a passionate guy that's for sure. There are just so many threads why "cw sucks' why solo have no chance, it's not fair, etc etc. In that thread Armando brings up your harsh realization this isn't a solo game. The people that are struggling don't have this mindset in mind. Thus they are attacking just like yourself, without seeing the bigger point. However I'll not derail the thread, as your comment and my reply should be in that thread.


At OP. NO one is telling you to stay out of CW. I've dropped with you before you are not the pilot Armando is referring to he's referring to these me first forget about the team oriented players.

Stop being on target and reasonable

Yes. The existence of anti-social rambo wannabe morons tends to ruin it for a lot of people.

However, since I actually play CW, I know what I'm talking about. There is little to no toxicity in the CW community. For crying out loud, we practically make organized matches into a party.
