Greetings fellow Forumwarriors!

A vast conspiracy lingers in the back of my mind after reading and listening to a lot of Mechwarriors.

What if we are the sheep?
What if PGI does all the “blunders” and strange balance decisions on purpose?
What if this is some sort of master plan to influence our thoughts about MWO?

Maybe they exactly know what would be needed in reality, they know exactly how to balance the game, they know what chassis are good, bad, decent or useless. BUT they actively decide to lets things like the LRMpocolypse happen.

To be honest I can’t get behind why someone would do so, but I’m just a simple person, how could I get such a grand and complex plan?

PGI tell us the truth!

I also stoped voting on maps and game modes, its rigged anyway!

PGI is intentionally making MWO look bad so when CW Phase 5 = MW5 comes out, it'll be the greatest thing ever especially when you compare it to MWO right now

Probably there are clues in the event titles and the prizes. Like the mysterious "3" cupcake, a harbinger of keeping the "Rule of Three?"

The cupcakes are from the anniversary things if I'm not mistaken. There should be about 4 right now

Occam's razor:

Why attribute to malice what mere incompetence can explain?

[TLBFestus]

If PGI were really trying to be deliberately incompetent this game would be perfect.

Uh, we're always in a beta?

or it might be yet another abomination bearing the mechwarrior title. the jury is still out on that one.

We are all part of a sociopsychological experiment.
It's just that the researchers forgot about their thesis after all these years...

There is no thesis. Too hard to spend time to write one up.

wait ... ? so you say PGI knows what they do ?

[PhoenixFire55]

There is no conspiracy. There are just baddies trying to milk as much $$$ from even worse baddies while giving zero effort.

Oh snap, so that really WAS an Illuminati logo I saw on my Urbanmech's butt? PGI, we're onto your tricks!

[Levi Porphyrogenitus]

It's all designed to get us to buy in to MW5:M. We get hyped up on the base gameplay mechanics and the artwork, get frustrated by the balance and the multiplayer functionality, and then are offered a $60 single player mercenary campaign in a better engine with an actual story and solid AI. Of course we're going to buy it.
