why would PGI try to copy a game based on 20th century tanks? these are 31st century Mechs, not 20th century tanks if i wanted to play tanks i would go over to the other game and do that. what next Aerospace Fighter Online? or Jump Ship Wars ? please stop trying to emulate WG

At this point, I am installing my good MW4 mercs again. Better play single player mode than try to figure out how to play this. BTW, In mw4 I have access to the whole bunch of mechs and weapons, without having to spend a buck on them, only the price of the game.
Definitively, I don´t like the direction of actual online gaming (aka pay for every bit they code). I stick with paying for the whole pack, name it original game, and even pay for the traditional game DLC or expansion disc... The way MWO works actually, it actually cost like buying a new car ( I encourage you to get a calculator and check how many bucks you spent in this game), and besides the company doesn´t take care of its customers at all.

I just want the mini map to rotate like it did before. I can adapt to the size, seismic still works, and like the symbology for the mech sizes, except when they all bunch up. Just bring back the rotation and mot people will be fine.

"except when they bunch up"?? That's when you need mini-map the most. I take it your a sniper or lurmer?

The point is to upgrade things, not downgrade..

The new minimap is a huge step backwards. Why spend time on something that already works? Put the minimap back the way it was, leave it alone, and dedicate your time to making new maps/scenarios.

Fantastic MiniMap !!

Only the true Mechwarriors can read it !!

So this intense 24 hour testing in the QA department was worth every penny !!

Hey PGI -> Its the same problem as in the year 2012 !
Why do you make changes and never play A SINGLE match with it ??
Why ??

When I started the Mech I saw in 5 sec. that this Mini Map was completely c***, but why do you recongnize it ?
I dont know, and I will never know...

So lets go on for the next years.

So the good news are that they going to fix it.
The "fun" news are that they are still modifying something that was fine, just to state "we are right, not you users... We know what is good for you, just what we want, not what you want"

Exactly. All the old mini-map needed was a zoom in-out feature. THAT'S IT! The time wasted on this debacle when the game needs so many real improvements just blows my mind.
