I guess I can be thankful in a way.
Been having the connection issues to all three servers still so I cannot play any PvP of any kind without lag / rubberbanding. Makes it impossible and I refuse to play with the issue, I even tried but it is too aggravating.
Even after finally getting through to my ISP what needs doing, the problem persists.
I was going to do some first ever build vidoes but cannot since I cannot have match play to show with those New Tech builds. All I can do is build Mechs, use the Testing Grounds and the Academy. Maybe if there was real PvE I could make the videos but I will not demand that, there are too many demanding children in the community.
I have not touched FP in a while even when I had good connections for reasons including but not limited to lack of support and development. It does not help that there are people pushing for more eSport efforts in MWO (assumed also into MW5) and they are getting some of their results. PGI has been for several patches putting more focus on comp scene outside FP, Solo and Group Queues. This is both good and bad.
Good because it adds a new area to MWO that brings in players.
Bad because it appears to take development in other areas like FP away.
All hail the new MWO motto.

Start making videos of Mechs kicking soccer balls around.
Only way to do CW/FP now is not with in game tools but the way it was done in TT. Players would have to use tools in game to come up with their own system and do their own CW.
Part of the blame does fall on the community. It does not help when MWO has problems needing fixing yet we have people complaining about wanting new maps, respawns EVERYWHERE, etc. All these demands for new stuff clog up the time needed to work on the game and pull away from needed fixes.
Been considering getting some MOBA in the meantime, only ever played one before and that died in Closed Beta. The 3 I am looking at seem more appealing.

Dota 2 just had their best player lose to an AI bot.
Pfft, LoL has that beat, one of their top players says he played worse in championships due to
too much indulgence of 'sensual pleasures.' Yeah he said it, too much sex makes him a bad gamer!
Guess we should tell new players to seriously give up sex, relationships and children before playing.

Keep hounding Russ on Twitter. PGI need to be reminded time to time.
I don't Tweet, never will.
Not joining Twitter just to hound PGI.
