Greetings Mechwarriors!

This is a petition I wrote to Piranha Games. If you want to sign it, write your nickname and date when you've started playing in reply below. I will send that petition to Piranha Games management. With link to the topic with your signatures.


PETITION TO PIRANHA GAMES

We, The Mechwarrior Community, which is still active and interested in MWO game development and well-being, appeal to Piranha Games management in points mentioned below:

1. We are concern about current situation of our Community and we want to be assured that the servers will not be closed from day to day. The best would be if we can be assured that Piranha Games is not planning to close the servers at least for few years. The reason we are asking for this is some negative feedback about MWO and it's future which is a big concern for us.

2. We want to be assured that Piranha Games is not planinng to abandon MWO and it's Community.

3. We want more presence from company employees at game forums. This including opinions about changes proposed by players (and explanations about why some changes may be implemented, some not, some shouldn't).

4. We want further development in some of MWO elements. We understand that balancing on-line competitive game is very hard task. That is why we are asking for changes in aspects which will not disrupt that balance. Like new maps, improvements in Faction Play (which has great potential), new game modes.

5. We want dialogue at game forums with company employees about implementing or not implementing changes and everything else. We understand that maybe the best would be to leave the MWO as it is and implement only minor changes, but there should be a space to talk about it.

These forums are amazingly bad. They should be destroyed, not imposed upon employees.

Vellron2005, started back in Closed Beta, can't remember the exact date, but I know there were literally only 4 maps and 4 mechs in the game. Yes, I'm that old.

Eh ... no.

We actually want to be assured that Piranha Games dies and finally abandons MWO and its Community so that said Community can actually make MWO a far better game.

OP, PGI isn't a bank. You don't get assurances that the money you gave them suddenly doesn't become worthless. You're welcome not to spend anymore of your money on the game. Some will. And if PGI does decide to shut the servers down, then we move on.

Started early 2014 don't remember the actual date. To all the negatives. I have railed to a point against alot of PGI's decisions on the game and have taken a few sabbaticals from it. However I, unlike others, am not rooting for it's end.

Ironically the thread's idea got me to look up my records which I kept. All the mechs I've bought how much and all that. 2013 I was a big spender that year.

I have spent maybe $150 and spent hundreds if not thousands of hours playing. I more than got my money's worth over 6 years. I just spent another 90 bucks for giggles. I am under a buck an hour already in just 2 weeks. Amazing when you use math and see what the true value is.

Petitions don't mean anything. The only thing that means anything is spending money on the game.

It's simple.

16x LMGs and 4x ERSL with Urban Mech armor would be the ultimate in salt-farming.
