Sorry if it's been posted somewhere already, but what's gonna happen to Supply Cache Keys when they're no longer needed?

Will get refunded, 25MC a pop.

Looking at the temperature specs for the maps in the patch notes...

As it stands, the 'cold' maps always get chosen over the 'hot' maps (at least the majority of the time), so it was almost a waste of resources for PGI to create those maps so players can vote to avoid them.

& now that effect had been tripled. get rid of the map vote and let RNG distribute the maps so we get more variety instead of playing the same 3 maps 9 out of 10 games.

If I see this correctly we will be having 10 queues?
2 quickplay (single and group), 1 community warfare, 7 queues for solaris.

Let's hope players will find games, after increasing the queues so much.

14 queues for Solaris, I believe (including 2v2)
However, Solaris will not be much of a problem - all you need is between one to three other players in the queue, total.

I forgot comp-play.

2 quickplay (single and group), 1 community warfare, 1 comp-play, 14 queues for solaris.
You could argue if private lobby is a queue.

total of 18 queues. Wow.

These toasters can actually run many of the best games that ever existed. And graphics has, like, nothing to do with it.

So, because a system can play Doom II, Quake, Everquest, Diablo, and MW:2 or whatever else you wanna throw in from the 90's/00's, it's supposed to be fine for eternity? P3 For Lyfe baby!!!

Damn, I should see if the emulator I have stuffed in my original xbox case can run MWO then, I could sell my system!

[BendakStarkiller]

so as far as steam is concerned once maintenance is over will it patch automatically download or do I have to get mwo portal and download it form there?

[anfadern]

BendakStarkiller you have to download it if you use the stand-alone client, just press "patch".
Steam... don't know about that one.

Yep, it is. I mean, how much new stuff do we see in gaming these days anyway? Almost every latest one-hit wonder has, like, 5% new and original gameplay stuff and the rest is same old, same old. The more things change, the more they stay the same. The latest Doom and Quake have been so successful because they follow their respective original games to the letter and keep the new developments from messing with that formula. Arguably this is what has drawn so many old-timers in this here game in the first place but who can say they like the original games any less now? Even Battletech the videogame is based on Battletech the TT game and MechCommander, and I see nothing wrong with that. There is next to zero relation between gameplay value and HW.

Well the viewing seems very odd, what did you change there. It just plays weird.

The Jungle map is terrible in performance so much lag and low frames.

[Rebel Ace Fryslan]

Indeed all points in Faction play are gone
What did they FUBAR here, that can't be intended.

Loving Solaris, 3 matches, 6 legs. I am bad & I feel bad.

Seriously, loved all 3 matches, its so much fun! I have always loved 1v1, now I can play it easily, any time! Thanks PGI folk!

So far, everything seems pretty solid, I've got stuck using my JJs a couple of times, maybe I shouldn't bounce around the map like a tool...

One thing that I have found, despite 3 wins in a row (all I will EVER get I'm sure), my player card is showing as though I haven't played a single game, is there just a lag on stats updates (I'm guessing there is & I've missed the memo, in which case, my bad)?

Whatever, this is fun, fun, fun. Thanks for all the clearly hard & loving work that went into this awesome addition!
