Guys, Devs, I've already messaged you on Twitter about this too. This game is losing to many people. Its dying, you we need to fix this.

Look at these numbers, that's terrible. Please, the players like Me who have been around since closed beta have ideas you need to try. Right now is not the time to be afraid of doing some serious work to fix the game.

There are a lot of things you could be doing to bring players back and encouraging better play styles.

We have ideas, I have ideas. Ideas we've been saying since Beta.

Please ask us, Pleas listen. Heck i will take a trip to your office to talk to you in person if you fricken want.

Every1 is concerned but Russ Bullock. He knows his stuff, he has special ppl hired to deal with balance. I assume he played this game on relatively high to competitive level to give accurate measure of de balance and act accordingly.

Steam reflect is only summer period. Danka.

It takes 6 months to make a map
Over a year to make beta CW
Over a year for clan tech
New tech was half a year and nothing was really new.


It's already to late. Russ bet the farm on MW5 and I hope it works.

I hope you are being sarcastic, its a well known fact that Russ does not play his own game much nor does the rest of the balancing team.

Also .. no.. it doesn't reflect only the summer period.. if you look at the numbers it goes clear back into January of last year.

Lot better than it was a couple of weeks ago.

That said, I did move up a tier in that period, but wait time is usually <1 min now compared to 2-3 minutes before.

Yeah but theres also the things that take like 5 minutes to fix that PGI never did

Like increasing rewards for loyalists

Its more than just a time commitment problem. I dont think PGI even cares anymore lol.

Theyre still just doing the absolute bare minimum

Things like Loyalist bonuses.. Decreasing the price of their paints and skins would make it where I would by a lot of them rather than what they are now.. I mean game play is more important, but really.. they could do SOME thing.. .. why are paints so bloody expensive?

Not like any one is going to lose any thing when mwo goes offline. There's that whole sub thread on how to extract the mechs. The mechs are already in hbs bt. Mw5 is just one more way to get access to the mech models. I've got a back up copy on an external hard drive of the game data.

The only thing people will lose is all the friends they had while running in unit(s) and all that seven or eight virtual currency mwo has. Some one could always use the mech models for non profit personal projects and share them with others.

They listen, but they usually do not care much about it.

That's bigger loss to me than all 200 of my mechs.

Rewards isn't going to save this game. The players that are leaving have tons of mechs and cbill.

They increased cbills , added mechbay and mc rewards for CW .Over time it still died.

Its going to take something big and it will take at least 1 year to program.

I truly hope they ARE doing something... they were talking about Faction play reworks..

Also, did you NOT SEE the DOUBLE new mech announcement?

That will fix everything right up, don't you know? :/

They should buff LRM's more, I hear that's really fun and engaging gameplay that's truly fun for both teams.

You know MW5 is the next big thing. MOW is cash cow for that endeavor
