What have you asked about that got the #MechCon response?

I know that the devs would never just use #MechCon with no actual intent of actually answering certain questions, but these are busy people who might forget a question or two or three that were supposed to be answered at #MechCon.

I, for one, would like to see the whole list of questions that got #MechConned, have them all in one place, and be able to confirm that all they all actually got answered.

It's what happens when you burn the goodwill of your audience/community.

This is a good one

It means only rightfully identified items will be held against him, not that 50 new maps aren't being worked on (or whichever hope)

I'm sure Bloodwolf will confirm that the two of us are often at loggerheads on pretty much all subjects and no matter what game forum...
So it comes as a great surprise to me (and probably him) that I agree with his comment whole heartedly.

Yes, there's nothing wrong with accountability. It should be win/win.

Is someone pointing a gun at your head forcing you to read all these #Mechcon threads? Or are you just being a masochist?

How many questions fall under the presentation though?

Aerotech would bring me back to the game, even if it sucked. I'd much rather fly an aerospace fighter and have insignificant impact in the game.

But there is no way they are implementing user-controlled fighters/bombers. First-off, the maps would need to be much, much bigger than even the largest CW map. Also, it wouldn't be a good use of resources unless they were to go with my idea for the massive persistent environment battles for CW.

'Rumor' is a fairly grandiose term for the deluded ramblings of a single poster who, delightful as he may be, came up with the notion of MWO Aerotech during an alcohol fueled dream.

I identify as masochist just by logging in to these forums. Brown sea never disappoints

You met my ex, but forgot a few other more descriptive words for the gape.

You're BS'ing, right?

Just because Novokaine started his rumblings about a dream, like a month or 2 ago and has been persistent about his trolling sarcasm, doesn't mean it's any kind of rumor

It's not like you have to comment on every one of those threads or even click on it
Like you didn't know what's it's going to be about ;-)

Also giving a blanket statement "wait for MechCon" leaves very little positive to talk about
