I am hoping PGI does a Phase 3 townhall to tell us what is coming.
In either Late March or Early April.
What do you hope is in Phase 3?

[MechWarrior4023212]

A function CW game that is immersion!

[Ace Selin]

Im hoping for stuff, coz stuff is better than no stuff!

[VorpalAnvil]

Anyone who thinks that CW is going to all of a sudden become a deep, interesting and fleshed out game mode come this spring hasn't been paying attention for the past 4 years...

Excacly my toughts but I'm not having high hope on that.

[MechWarrior4023212]

We can only dream and hope!

What's coming:

CW2 - the 2 gets changed to a 3
The map gets reset.

Nothing else that will have any real impact on the game or mode.

So,
Can we start a pool to see if they roll out any of the phase 3 stuff to the test servers before the drop them on the general population? Would be nice if they did.

I hate it when a likely reality rains on the parade that is my hope. Sigh.

Just depends on what they do with unit management tools honestly and how the whole voting for attack lanes is implemented.

[MischiefSC]

Queue split.

Loyalist control of attack lanes.

MC rewards for tags possibly.

What do I want?

Remove attack/defend worlds, just one front per border that is attack/defend both.

Alliances between factions so that if loyalists vote for, say, a Davion/FRR alliance the 22AL as a Davion loyalist unit could do a "contract" with FRR. We would be based out of FRR but still Davion loyalists getting Davion LP but dropping on FRR borders.

That would let us help concentrate populations without requiring players to give up faction identities. A blanket "is vs clans" gamemode would hold no interest for me.

Not really. None of the changes they've announced with do anything to have any lasting effect on getting people to play CW. Might get a weekend or two bump but that's about it.

Just the result when you invest all of your money into the art team and skip building a game to put those assets to work on.

[Lupis Volk]

I want a CW that doesn't alienate me just because i have a few extra letter next to my name.

[Jep Jorgensson]

Hopefully it will be a new CW that is not controlled by roaming merc units.

[Zolaz]

I can go ahead and do a Townhall for you. Over promised, under delivered, community warfare event and mech pack for sale.

Don't worry guys, this is totally going to be the huge, meaningful change you've all been waiting for.

I think you are trying to say something but its just out of grasp.....

[Hillslam]

Give us Co-Op PvE, not a shell game for more team deathmatch which is all we have today.

PvP and eSports has gotten OLD. the best games with the biggest populations and longest running times have deep rich PvE content.

See, this is why I say nobody should just go read everything NKVA says to learn how to play CW.

Then again you really need to develop your sense of pessimism, sarcasm and apathetic acceptance of mediocrity and disappointment if you're going to be 'satisfied' with CW.

I may have to revisit my position on this.

I hope they make dropships destructible. We should be able to shoot them down. And kill everyone inside.
