Since I can not make poles in general discussion and since the Suggested Features is down in the depths of hardly a sole wonders in there, I am posting the link to the pole here to get it more public face.

As posted in said topic keep it Civil, if you disagree or have an idea state it out don't just rant "PGI your game sucks" what does that give PGI to improve on if they are just told "You suck!"....Positive feedback doesn't always mean it's nice things, it's useful feedback, something many seem to not give...

I voted for Solaris, in hopes that it will take over the quick-play-part and the current Quick-play game modes are somehow incorperated into Faction play.
So you could count my vote towards "More FW/CW content" too...

[Bud Crue]

I voted other. Explained why under the poll.
Save CW!

[FrontGuard]

I hope we will agree on Solaris.
The ranking system alone will attract many competitive players like myself.
by weight class I would hope.
I can't think of anything more exciting than a ranked dueling system for this game.
I wants it.

[KodiakGW]

Voted Solaris. Now, do I really think they will acknowledge this poll? Highly doubtful.

[Metus regem]

I voted PvE, I did enough real world PvP during my deployments overseas....

[JaxRiot]

I voted PvE

This game has tons of PvP already

[Moldur]

Man, a lot of those things I want really bad, but I think PVE would be the most beneficial for the greatest number of people compared to the other suggestions. I mean, hopefully we get most of those things, but "next" big thing? Gotta prioritize.

[FrontGuard]

This game can not do PVE as it is now... there is no AI.
Sure they have AI to shoot from a stationary weapon turret but no movement AI.
that would be a new game, not really an addition.

If you vote for PVE you are really asking for a new MW game.

[Triordinant]

I couldn't help but notice that PvE and Solaris have the most votes. Come to think of it, wasn't PvE campaign + Solaris the combo that made past Mechwarrior games successful?

We are. Not necessarily by PGI. Maybe PGI can make a deal with them to use Alex's 'mech designs just like they did with HBS' BattleTech.

Many want to have PVE, but what kind of PVE?

Do you want a big story-driven campaign?

Or more like Armored warefare?
I.e. more like quick play matches where you and your team fight off waves of NPC-enemys?

Maybe this should be differentiated in the poll?

IMHO, the best thing they could do for the game (so far as new content goes, not dealing with balance and bug fixing) would be to create Solaris 1v1 ranked arena fighting while folding all other gameplay into the CW map (much the same as QP is now, just participating in CW).

I agree with the 1V1 ranked arena but...
I do not understand what you mean by folding QP into the CW map.
Are you saying all QP would be IS vs Clan?

More for a story driven campaign here, maybe a retelling of MW2:mercs... Everything we have now, was found in MW2: Mercs....

Take the existing QP drops with their current structure (MM, same maps, etc) and have those games be folded into the CW maps in some fashion. I don't mean drop everybody into the Invasion que. It could be done a number of ways, but certain 'hot spot' planets might allow 'general combat' matches (what we now call QP) to count towards the result on that planet. Other fronts might only be affected by scouting/invasion mode, to leave the organized teams their own player area. There are tons of ways they could integrate it that wouldn't be terribly noticeable to the general population.

Since our overall game pop is so low, and getting lower, we really need to merge as much as we can. (After all, QP was just supposed to be a placeholder until CW was ready).
