Surely not, I thought everyone knew about P.G.I's other work, before the name change, fishing and hunting zombie bears in da woods etc etc, got sued for diversifying their company to much, causing delays in production.

I thought, surely not the same company that said faction warfare in 90 days and two years on it's still pretty much a place holder for the game they said would happen <---sarcasm..btw.

Like the fishing game that they got sued over.

"The lawsuit is a common place disagreement over money (which we are still owed a nice chunk of), and I can't really comment on it since some of the aspects are still before the court. It's far from anything serious, and has no bearing on day-to-day operations of PGI"


Just for context. What was the result of the lawsuit if anybody can find it. Not that it's all that important. Just because you wag your finger and say "look they got sued" doesn't mean anything.

Also look at who wrote that article, yea says it all. Then look at awsomeexpresses response and that was the nail in the coffin to mechwarriorbuddah's post.

Time to Necro this thread!!! I have not been playing because the game is stale and boring. Phase 3 of CW was a bad joke. I am not enthusiastic about the Energy draw system. The current quirks should be customization slots on each mech with each mech getting more or less based on combat value.

The list goes on. Quite frankly, the game is just not fun right now, at least to me. The map changes are not that thrilling and have detracted a lot from the game.

My wallet is sealed and I have no intention of supporting any projects from this dev or one of its shell companies in the future.

We all know that. The event was a nice boost and the thing we learned is if people have a reason to play they will. Then others play and some don't. All i can say is we have to wait till mechcon to hear about the changes. Until then do we need another one thousand of these threads?&gt;

It's been my impression we're not waiting for mech_con to hear about CW that was already addressed at the ngng podcast with Russ and the round table results. I expect this games announcements at mech_con to be about NEW features not trying to revive a dead game mode for the 4th damn time!

MWO....Where waiting for content is the game.

I was wondering why I was suddenly getting notifications about a thread from september. You're the reason. I am fine with this.

The population for this game will never increase. Without marketing and content it will be a constant downward trend.

Faction play is waiting for an honest gametype that pits both teams against each other and not an Orbital Cannon and a maze map. That stuff is okay for an occasional break, but it's not MechWarrior. The Attack the Orbital Cannon is what failed. PGI needs to accept that and add a gametype that pits one team vs another. That's all that's needed.

Before the "orbital cannon" CW was already dead. Long Tom just helped speed up the bleeding.

Who wants to get off work and wait 20+ minutes to get in a faction play game that MIGHT not be a total shitstomp. Answer : VERY FEW PEOPLE.

What if you could always get a match instantly (AI opponents to fill gaps) and sometimes it was people? Would you accept that? I would!

I have another question for you. What faction do you play for and why?
