I bought MW5 not because MWO is a great game. I bought it for one reason alone. Nostalgia. I just have to see how the streak boat is going to function in MW5.

PGI has graciously nerfed my mech so much into the ground, I can no longer one shot lights. They tank a full 72 alpha because of me. Because of me lights do not run this game. Because of me PGI has nerfed my mech so far into the ground no one is able to play it but me. Indirectly, elevating me to superstar status.

Thank you PGI for making my mech so hard to play I never see anyone else playing it. After hundreds of games online, I yet to see any other streak boat. Because of me, you have made my gameplay experience truly unique. I am the only player that can successfully pilot the streak boat with all the nerfs.

At the end of the day, you cannot stop me. But you can continue to try. My commitment to playing the streak boat is stronger now than ever. I will continue to play a style you hate, making you turn in your sleep at night knowing full well, you may be able to turn my mech into a lame duck, but you cannot stop me from playing it, or making good of it. Will you ever learn? Probably not. Since, you will not learn, I'll keep teaching, and dominating this game with 1,000+ damage and 6 kill games.
Once again thank you PGI for making me the only player capable of piloting this mech. Your all a bunch of fools.

I'd love to see any IS light with an xl "tank" your 72 alpha streak boat. Because that would mean that the same light mech could tank a dual heavy guass direct hit too. You think you're the only one who has had their preferred play style messed with from pgi's constant buff/nerf-ing? Talk to the people that use to play lights like the Jenner before and after the Rescale not including all the weapon nerfs or asinine armor of the mech being reduced to the point a 20 ton mech has more armor than a 35 ton mech even when that 35ton mech has full survival tree while the 20 ton doesn't.

I bought it mostly because of the modability. While most of you will still be here bitching about it when it releases and doesn't turn out the way you want, some will be working on doing just that.

I would be WILDLY surprised if PGI managed to hit al lthe right notes at release but I'm not counting on them to do it either. Gameplay wise, this is going to be MWO with better graphics ( and hopefully better optimization ) the rest will be up to the community.

Considering PGI's track record, I'll wait for a few months after release when it's on 50% sale and pick it up. EVEN with all the goodies you get for MWO, I cant justify preordering the game.

Pre-Purchase, No. Purchase once it is out and a number of reviews by many other individuals have played, MAYBE.

I have this nagging feeling the mass of people counting on this will be sorely disappointed. I am basing it on PGI's history of "promises" vs. "reality".

Why are people taking PGI's word on this, especially after all that has happened?

I might buy it when...
1. I have seen test reports and it is okish
2. and it is on sale

[Adamant80]

I was going to buy it when it released. Lately I've been looking at the lack of well, everything specific, and their tendency to put in minimum effort. I'm now going to have to say that I may wait for a sale. Just utter disappointment all around with MWO the past 2 years and MW5 monetizing communication.

[Anjian]

I won't prepay for it. But I may buy it --- providing its good and it does not suck --- when released. PGI needs to create a game that can at least, stand up the quality set by HBS with PC Battletech.

When its on sale in Steam in 2 or 3 years smaybe.

Its just MWO with unreal engine - same static mechs - same static animations - and the story is gruesome boring

Not quite. From what I gather all clan mechs and a good deal of weapon system will not be in MW5.

Still, a much smaller choice of variety is more than made up for by not having to put up with 11 dumbasses, so I already bought MW5 despite reservations and past experiences regarding pre-purchase video games.
