Question to PGI:
http://mwomercs.com/...61#entry5110861

Forgive button. Please add this!

[Rebel Ace Fryslan]

question:
CW is too empty to get good games going, maybe on NA-prime it does.
And mostly only IS defence against clanners.
And with tournaments almost always favouring on QP, Those are the most empty moments.

It's a struggle to not play lower-lvl QP games.

Could you regulate/manage this better.
PS: #Clans10-IS12


question 2:

A standard e-mail template for Bug-reporting would be nice.
Or something on the Homepage for map bugs.
Ps: not always getting a printscreen to help.

Banwave when?

I don't think they can do anything about the cheaters, twice they have back up about a ban wave

I would like to see some sort of ladder system with a smaller team queue like, 4v4 quick play. Give out unique titles or something for high rankers at the end of every month. I am sure many people would love that and make for some really great battles. Dreamin' here i guess.

Well Blaze we had what your talking about 10+ years ago in Leagues 20+ Leagues you could play 1v1-12v12.So much of what everyone wants in MWO we had!!!!! But many say owe no that wont work in MWO there just blowing smoke up everyone's rump.

We old guard players were privy to playing BT/MechWarrior in Leagues that kept stats and awarded trophies and medals etc. every month mostly with virtual prizes some mailed out real prizes in T-shirts-mugs-ETC.

When MWO came out I assumed we would have a new MSN Gamming Zone with the same type of MM game play as we had in MechWarrior2-MechWarrior4 where a host could set up games from the lobby system and play socialize recruit and so on like we had.

Boy was I ever surprised when MWO turned into a WOT clone it still today makes me sick to play this game more than 60 minutes with its same same battles and maps over and over all day and night long with no way to break up the boredom with different game modes and map choices or restrictions on equipment or weapons per battle like we had..

MWO needs to do a 360 and go back to being a BT/MechWarrior game MWO has so much potential and after 4 wasted years of same same game play I personally don't believe Russ and PGI will ever get MWO to a point it was as fun exciting as its older PC IP namesakes were.

Hm....you know? Medals and other little tokens would be cool things for loyalists to have.

You know what would be cooler? A model of our mechwarrior that would be mildly editable and display an appropriate mechwarrior uniform for their Faction. AND show the medals they've won. AND display it as your forum icon.

[sycocys]

You know what would be cooler yet? A game that has more than one mode with 6 names.

[Kael Posavatz]

So... Three months out from Steam. What does the player population look like?

Oh...

Well, that's not good.

I hope Russ knows where he can find a good plumber.

Huh... I figured somebody like you would remember it like the back of your hand. Launch party.

And I do. That's a video of what they wanted for CW, but which has never materialized. I misunderstood you; I thought you were talking about a newer video where Bryan apologized for what never took place in CW. Thanks for sharing the link, though; that was a bit of nostalgia. You do realize that, in six months, that video will be three years old, right?

Man, do I wish I had MONEY!!! I might not be a programmer or an artist, but I've been a real-world leader through most of my life, and I know BattleTech extremely well, and I would get this ***** back on track toward being a BattleTech amalgam, without removing the fun.

Not just Loyalists, but the Mercs who actually care about having those things, as well. Make them available for all units to choose whether to be used, or not.

You do realize, of course, that a proper MechWarrior uniform is topless, or a tank top, with bicycle shorts and MechWarrior boots, right? Very little clothing at all. A proper uniform for a forum icon I could deal with, though it would require a means of allowing unit commanders to develop uniforms for units that don't already have their own, which would also require an ability to have decals uploaded and vetted, by the community, for use.

I am at work so I can not watch it.Will be (is) there a transcript somewhere?

[DiabloSix]

Time for some new achievements. Faction warfare and quickplay. Shooting down drones. Capping resources times. Example you have to cap for a total of 30 minutes and an achieve pops. A certain amount of 12-0 stomps.

now that several maps have breakable trees .... could achievements be added for the number of trees you knock down?
something like: "I'm a lumber jack and I'm ok", "Clear cutting forests", and "You're the reason for global warming"
oh, and for every tree you knock down you get 1cbill?

Alexander Garden said:

I see this request so often I've finally gone ahead and filed it. No guarantees if we'll ever get it though.

Lumberjack: Knock down 100 trees.
Paul Bunyan: Knock down 1000 trees.
Tunguska Event: Knock down 80,000,000 trees.

I lost the first half hour. Is there someone taking notes?

[Odanan]

Next Clan OmniMech: Viper (40 tons):

I'm pleased!!

EDIT: replaced for better image. Build discussion and hardpoint analysis here.

[Cato Zilks]

Viper looks good. Should have a nice small profile.

[McHoshi]

Any summary somewhere?
( i just slept away while listening to it )

[-Ramrod-]

They can't afford to have another ban wave. The community is so small they'd be alienating a decent amount of people. So it more or less gives people free reign to cheat since they obviously have no plans to ban anybody again. Guess we just gotta live with that. Hate to "whine" but that's the reality of the situation.
