What we need is MWO 2 as an extension of MW5. That way you can have SP missions to teach players good habits and behaviors. Literally use the same maps, or even if the maps are procedural have the missions teach the players the good positioning/behavior/mech design tips.

Then you need to have 'rankings' based on W/L that color codes the players name so you know at a glance who knows what wins and who doesn't. This makes good players calling drops insanely more successful.

You can't argue with W/L. If what you do wins matches, you win matches. If what you do doesn't, you don't win matches. Doesn't matter if it's killer aim or just having good advice calling drops.

It could be such an incredible game. Just needs FW with logistics, use the mercenary system, make something similar for loyalists (where your rank doesn't cap out) and....

What a game that would be.

Not going to happen:

• The MWO players buying all their stuff again to finance MWO 2. Not likely. Or ...
  
• PGI making MWO 2 for free and transfering all players' accounts to MWO 2. Not likely.

Don't come here very often nowadays, but this thread is depressing.
Guess i should re-install MWO, take a look at all my mechs, maybe make a bunch of screenshots for keep sakes, possible take a spin in a few of them then say goodbye and uninstall one last time.
I doubt very much PGI will even get to or want to renew the license, they eventually got to make MW5, so job done i guess.
The wait starts all over again.......

Do not worry. You already have IS 'Mechs in MW5:Mercs and I guess that the rest of Clan 'Mechs will follow in some expansion pack.

Maybe they did and forgot to tell me about it - in the best PGI's tradition.

I do not know why you are complaining that MechWarrior Online is closing, then. PGI needs income to keep game servers up. And since Russ said that mechpacks as one of the main sources of PGI's income no longer sell as they used to, what other source of money for PGI and MWO is left than MechWarrior 5: Mercenaries?
