Not only is value subjective, this kind of thing is open to abuse.

Additionally, your value in a match may not be perceived by other players.. especially if you are playing with people who consider kill ratio to be more important than the person that scouted out the enemy positions and enabled that kill ratio to occur.

The game itself has meta-game within it to ensure that player worth/value is rewarded already.

This isn't no Star Wars, this is Battletech.
If it's going to be MVP, it's going to be this.
Most Valuble Mechwarrior, MVM. Not MVP.

I don't like this idea,but lets wait til this game is in open beta or after open beta to do something like this.

So what you're saying is, because some people will experience the moment where they think, "*** I was the best, why did that guy get MVP?!" we shouldn't have the award?

Don't be so pessimistic.

That sort of thing won't happen nearly as often as the moment where a person thinks, "I got voted mvp! Christ, I did awesome that round, I need to try that strategy again. God I love playing __________ role."

As a former coach used to say:

"There is only be one MVP... the winning team "

I voted "no". The reasons have been well explained in previous posts.

[Seabear]

A"MVP" is totally out of place in MWO! The devs have consistently said that TEAMWORK is going to be one of the most important elements in the game. A "mvp" will defeat such a goal. Too many people will abandon the teams plan to rack up high kill scores. I for one want nothing to do with a grandstander. Ego is a big enough problem for some palyers as it is.

Instead we should flip it to vote on the worst player in the game.
