Are there plans to do another World Championship event like last year? My team barely participated, but I did like being able to watch others. Plus, being able to purchase cockpit items to support was pretty cool too.

As long as it is not funded by any income that could be spent on game development, have fun!

Yes they are..


June patch is the comp build patch. New 8V8 Mode, and a mode that is for prema made comp teams. Has a ladder system built in.

(or is it july?) But yes, they are doing it again, and it's not a tourny till the end, You just play with your set team like any other mode, you get ranked, then ranked teams get into tourny

Trying to turn this game into an e-sport thingy is the dumbest idea ever!

Just to w4nk the epeen of self proclaimed "competitive" players......disgusting!

According to the survey they did after Mech Con 2016, in which 1952 people took part, the MWO World Championship Finals were the favorite elemente of Mech Con.

So, according to this survey (which has far more participants than any player poll on reddit) quite some people enjoyed the Championships, and therefor, probably give a damn.

I just want them to do it again so they do that 10% c-bill boost thing they did last time.

[Zolaz]

You got your single player ... it is called the Training Grounds.

Maybe... if they do that again... maybe this time they could hire someone who knows how to advertise such an event... don't know... someone who knows marketing and public relations and stuff like that.

That's a bit more harshly worded than I'd put it personally...

But yeah, it's coming back. I don't really care TBH since this game isn't really a good spectator game, but hey, as long as the music this year isn't terrible, and they don't have another potential lawyer scuffle, again, I wish them luck with it, and will check out the stream.

Pretty fun when there's an event on and everyone goes full tryhard. It feels like a different game, it's pretty great.

Man that lawyer thing was the dumbest thing ever. We'd all have personalized unit decals by now if it wasn't for that muppet. Who was the tool that lead that charge again? Is he even still around?

To be fair, PGI really should have taken the time and signed a contract with them, even just to protect their own posteriors. It's always better safe than sorry when it comes to money and people's logos.

I agree, PGI got complacent. They forgot the community/kind of people they are dealing with. They need to deal with the community as a hostile element that will use any excuse to push a point out of pure spite. Because as much as PGI messed up, there was ample opportunity for us to meet them half way but the hate from the community is just too real.

Season 12 started yesterday, so only people who've played in the past 2 days have a ranking. Check his Season 11 stats

"Another" championship "like last year" is the last thing we need. What we do need is a properly structured event, run by people who both have a clue and are willing to give effort. It is long apparent that PGI has neither clue, nor effort. So once again if anything happens it'll be organized by enthusiast players, who will once again get little credit for their work and PGI will once again shout on every corner how "their" tournament is the most competitive event in the history of competitivness.

So at this point ... just whatever.

[LordNothing]

im not even going to tune in this time around. last time it seemed like it was kind of a clusterbuck. sure the games were interesting, nothing against the players, but the commentary needs work. seemed like another excuse for pgi to show off their alcohol consumption. would you like to buy a mech pack pgi a six pack?
