Well when the last 3 PTS are complete failures, a major component in your last PTS is removed (half way thru testing)because of a poop storm, forums are ablaze with people posting leaving threads and many are threatening refunds of mechs, when an MM is
put in place because of a lack of players (map/game mode select) its a good time to go to steam. Well it will be the Xmas period maybe a final cash injection they are hoping for?
I wonder if the Launch party entertainment is a fat lady who is going to sing?
Wonder if Jordan is going to sell them the new reskined MW tact...err BT later in 2016, like he sold them MW5?.

I think releasing MWO on steam in it's current state is a huge mistake. I'm predicting a loooooot of negative reviews very quickly.

They should 404 that link already. It's completely out of date

Well that's bad news, this game is not ready for steam, not at all. Still has a super high learning curve, lack of content ( needs some kind of single player or co op bad) a unavoidable pay wall if you enjoy the game and want to own more than a child's handfuls of mechs. The list goes on for quite a while, one good thing though if it fails maybe the sell the rights back and someone else picks up the game and makes A next gen version of Mechwarrior

That's some mighty fine hope you got there.

So. Not. Ready.

This smells like desperation.

On a side note, we will finally know the population numbers.

Smash game flat 12/1. Launch on Steam 12/10.

That's a fabulous plan.

Is it wise for them to go on Steam in December, when they largely go on holiday for a portion of December there after? I can't help but feel it's a little optimistic.

Well, I guess, we'll see how it goes.

the most divisive patch of 2015 so far;
a total cluster ****

and they thought it was a good idea to announce this NOW

well this game had it's moments!!! R.I.P

It's been 3 years...I've also put too much money to just stop caring.
Shooty Stompy Robots is fine and all...but I feel I could balance it so much better...(but, some significant bias there)

Yeah. There's going to either be a lot of unfixed issues or a lot of developer overtime. Either way I would have probably gone for a January launch instead

players marched down to the steam launch party in pgi offices and told pgi the voting system was lame
russ said well then let them eat cake

[Deathlike]

So... 3rd time's the charm?

Closed Beta -> Open Beta complaints to not do it (I wasn't there, but I'm sure it existed).
Open Beta -> Official Launch ("just another patch day" for MWO)
Official Steam Launch - Doing this all despite having a weaksauce NPE and poor retention... but hey... we're doing it anyways (and CW is still in beta, woefully devoid of a useful end game goal - and not told what's to come).

Man... so nice... they had be be retold thrice.

And here is the overwhelming reason alot of you guys just cant let go..
Thousands of $ invested, you dont stay because the game is good just because of the heavy investment..
