I'm really worried about the game with all the things in a state of flux.....I hope that the rebalance doesn't cause another player mass exodus. We barely have enough players now. :(

What are the MM problems and why will the balance pass cause a mass exodus. When was the last mass exodus and what was it caused by?

Well I do believe there was one when the pop tarters were nerfed, and a much smaller one when the Timbers S pods had the jj fixed to them. Right now there quite a few threads about the mm.....

Something about a Pharoah, bugs and bloody doors. I didn't pay attention really, everyone was all like "Time to go! We're going out to the desert for a while. It's gonna be like Burning Man, only with less hippies and free food!"

What a mess. You don't even want to know.

The rebalance will likely be much less than everyone hopes. The cold hard reality is, based on all prior MWO changes, it'll be a basic idea with little content and a sort of general idea thats half executed. They will promise it's the start of big changes. In two years there will be only minimal changes and they will then introduce the idea of a whole new system.

There will not be an exodus due to big changes. If there is an exodus it will be a quiet digging away because the changes were too little.

I would flat out love to eat my words on this one but I have no historical precedent on which to hang that hope.

Most of the mm threads are people who pawned in puglandia now complaining everyone else is in meta mechs as well and knows what they are doing. Personally my games have been far superior. Balance passes will only annoy the same people who don't see anything wrong with boating 6 large weapons to one shot people, they will adapt. I look forward to the balance pass but I play for fun, I enjoy when the game dynamics shift and I have to adapt.

Try hards be try hards no matter the meta!

In stead of Thinking that PGI is ganna Fail with the new Balance Pass, and Building Doubt,
why not Stay Hopeful and look to all the Good that has happened recently?(MechLab/MechSelect)

I would, but I'm finding less and less of a reason to bring a assault to pug with. Especially anything that is under 70kph. I'm trying not to rant bout that. I have noticed that my friends aren't playing anymore either.. :(

yes it can.

according to some players MWO has been about to die ever since the start of open beta. if it survived the stalled progress of 2013 I doubt anything in the pipeline will kill it.

my prediction is MWO will die when PGI stops developing it, not before

Lets worry about it when the time comes. No need to add grey hairs over something that we have no specific detail on.

Mind sharing your population over time charts? I'd be really curious to look at some numbers. Cheers!
