The ATM thing is more about skill gap than the weapon system
In proper T1 games ATM have a lot of weaknesses and are not top of the food chain type of weapons.
In T1 direct fire weapons rule mostly imo.

In situations with skill gap
ATM's can be very strong.

Yup. T2 is about when missiles of any kind tend (excluding MRM which still have their place) to be discarded due to their excessive easy-to-use counters. (or their weaknesses compared to other weapon types)

Yeah.

PGI has never co-operated with the MWO community, neither on design or modification of existing maps nor taking offers on community-produced maps.

The game was also doomed when it became clear that pgi simply refused to fix severe bugs. I remember how long they actually took to address the massive fps drops whenever you would run through smoke/steam. They just completly ignored the issue. Stoically. They also failed miserably to introduce a single game mode other than team death match. They just couldnt do it and ignored, once again, virtually all community feedback. Stoically and relentlessly like I have rarely seen in other online games. Not on this level. Pgi is rare in that regard. They actualyl completly ignore any and all feedback and drove this game into the ground. Almost purposefully it seems.

Community warfare was supposed to be the big heart of this game but failed miserably when they threw pug teams vs organized and competitive groups that just massacred pugs in faction warfare for 30 mins, even camping their spawn. Completly killing that game mode apart from some clans that still play it. Escort mode which everybody was hyped about? They completly messed it up by forcing you to cover some über dumb ai bot. Anything they touched in this game or tried to do failed horribly on such a scale that it was inevitable for this game to fail and the servers will be shut down. It is remarkable though that this game has survived that long as buggy as it is. With that little content. Even solaris has, once again, failed horribly.

And you copmlain about a lack of maps?

You do realize that evry single penny you might have invested into this game was used to create mw5, right?

So, complaining about maps......is a little late now. Whereas 'late' is a massive, massive, obscenly huge and vast understatement.
