Same question to ASH why comp unit players dont play more competetive mode of MWO? What is the main reason?

FP Competitive? Oh please...

We had the actual competitive MWO season run Oct to Dec, plus other leagues that run during the year (3-5 leagues usually). So most of the time people are playing there and that rounds out a lot of their 'play hours' each week/month.

Outside of playing or casting, I don't play that much in MWO. ~150 QP games max usually and most of the time I'm playing around to test out Cauldron changes we've made or thinking of making and chillin' while streaming. It's virtually impossible to do all that in FP.


If I play even with just 6 High Skill comp guys 12mans head for the hills and then you can't get games anyway.

Rarely, very rarely, is there anything resembling reasonable competition in FP. Years ago was different as there were dozens of units running around all the time so it was plenty interesting.

The fact that PGI kept wasting resources on other useless game modes while rebranding the game as well to promote it?

And also because it's a pretty dead game mode, where the only reason remotely to play it is for the rewards, nothing more. Practically a boring game mode where nobody worth playing really gets on anymore.

So did anything ever come from the video of aimbotting from players in the actual competitive MWO season? Just curious.
PGI passed off the responsibility to audit to the league... did anything ever come from that? I never heard anything about it.

You can't blame PGI for promoting Solaris. It had potential, and nobody expected it to fail.
My pc broke down when Solaris was popping, and when I got back it was dead.

I don't know that whole history, but Solaris was pretty cool. I'm sure it could have used some balancing and more attention, but there's no reason that mode should be completely dead today.

The fact that Solaris is dead today, I think, says a lot more about the MWO players than it does the quality of the game mode itself.

Oh yes you can 100% blame PGI for failure of Solaris. It has so many huge issues and some of those could have been fixed pretty easily but PGI didn't really do any upgrades to that game mode after release and it just doesn't work like it is.

and I don't hate the game mode, I have played quite a lot of it. I just hate how badly PGI implemented it and didn't bother to fix stuff.

Solaris was doomed from the outset.

Its failure rests 100% at the feet of PGI.
Same as the latest few FP updates which just made things worse with each patch.

There is no one else to blame there for both.

"more competetive mode of MWO?"

Yeah that was sarcasm.

This topic was about proofing that FP aint that competetive anymore that we need to let newplayers in gently, but i dont wanna start that fight again. This topic wasnt about me. I play this gamemode 0-2 times a week maybe more now in winter.

These are only competetive matches past 5 months that i have been in.

I wish there was more good fights, but aint gonna happen. Old days was golden. You need to play smaller groups to make it challenging

Yes PGI really screwed up big time and made really dumb noob mistakes and didnt wanna change their attitude after it was too late, but i think its good enough game to last almost 10 years

Most game devs fail after one or two games, PGI is well above average in their success. You may wish for more, but it is what it is.

Not everyone could be Blizzard...



And as a conclusion of this whole topic: FP FOR THE FP GOD!!!

The problem with Facition play is when you get clan vs IS Clan wins long range engagments until IS gets into brawling range then the game is instantly over until that is fixed Fp will remain one faction games... because IS VS clan is too unbalanced.

Nope. Its funny, but many others players crying about IS long range supremacy.

Clan mechs are lacking a punch in close range? Maybe learn some new builds for you Clan mechs?
Try something like this...
hbk-iic
hmn-pa
on1-iic-a
ntg-d
ntg-hl
gar-d
mad-iic-sc
snv-br
dwf-w

Not as durable mech as IS mechs because quirks but few IS mechs with similar tonnage can challenge that firepower...

PS. Not all of those builds are serious business but all of them do pack serious punch.

The problem with MWO is players having absolutely no clue and making completely rubbish statements filled with misinformation, like the above.

Amazing such cluelessness exists
