There is A LOT of basic in universe stuff missing from this game.
We should not need modders for the lore and polish basics.
Where are the mission ties to the actual lore happenings of the inner sphere? Where are the Comstar news feeds keeping me informed? Where are the ex Wolfs Dragoons, or Kell hounds, Or Northwind Highlander pilots? Where are the Comstar adepts to send my HPGs? Where are the salvage trucks? or VTOLS or anything that reminds me I'm running a merc company and that this Leapord, the OPO, the pilots and a lonely ship marine aren't the sole inhabitants of the world?
MW2Mercs was FAR more immersive in this regard and that game is 20+ years old my dudes. Such missed opportunities!
Now there are some fun elements in this game, don't get me wrong, I am enjoying it despite its many flaws. But that's because I'm an OG early 90s Btech fan. But at times it also feels lazy, under polished and PGI has certainly under utilised the timeline aspect of the game. Instead of a grind for Rep, let me join the 4th succession war. Let me fight 'pirates' that have GREAT gear close to Terra. Ya know. The little things.(I'm rep 8 and 20+ hours in btw)
Harebrained did a fantastic job of immersion PGI could learn from them.
OH AND FOR THE LOVE OF GOD PLEASE FIND A NEW DROPSHIP ARRIVING IN SYSTEM CUT SCENE JESUS CHRIST I'M SO SICK OF IT. *This goes for you too PGI*
