Things looking up and good. Remaining hopeful.

Glad to see we're getting a little bit of love finally for MWO. We as a community always want more, that will never change but I honestly think if you would have released the roadmap with the information about event queue, new mech chassis, quirk QoL etc.. and the investigations into FP and a new game mode (even if they came with an asterix) the reception to the roadmap would have been quite a bit more positive.

Still im more positive now than I was last month thats for sure.

P.S Cant wait for the big blue star map and I for one am really enjoying playing on Emerald Vale.

Nice... Much better Roadmap for sure... I love the Crusader, so can't wait for that, hoping for the 5M model...

New Maps always welcome, love that... Re-balance of Quirks, Skills, etc. alright...

Platinum Mech's? Who the **** cares... The new Event thing? Who the **** cares... Re-balancing the Tonnage/Match Making would be great... Still getting 6 Assaults on One side, and 5-6 Lights on the other side to counter lol...

So... 75% Happy... Good job PGI... Crusader is REALLY great news...

[BeCause]

Just a couple things.

If you're gonna do Clan P variants, you need the core omnis, not what we've been getting.

Honestly, I like the skill tree. If you're going to **** with it, at most you should move where the nodes are. Make it so you can max out range or speed tweak without having to get points in other stuff.

bring back 8v8

[Kurt the Merc]

Looks great. Glad to see things are happening. That initial road map was disheartening. Can't wait for the rebranding and Re-engagement campaign. I hope to see this game experience a renaissance.

Map Section Updates
Next map

• Vitric Forge for QP - Hope they don't just cut the huge crater off and call it a new map like they did with Emerald Taiga.. that map is atrocious.

Features Update

• The Event Mode Queue*
  
• Quirk Display Update*
  
• Skill Tree Reconfigured* - PLEASE don't make me re-skill all my mechs.. not again...

*We will be revealing more about these feature updates in the upcoming DevLog and subsequent Feature Outline posts.



Feature Investigations

• Matchmaker
  
• Faction Play - Will you make it a thing again? Where a normal player can actually play and have meaningfull impact?
  
• New Game Mode
  
• Rebranding MWO - Not another Solaris fiasko please.. Maybe MWO2?
  
• Reengagement Campaign - You know slapping on some shiny paint jobs wont't make people come back right? Must be something HUGE to make people come back.. will be looking out for this..

Don't change 12v12 to 8v8. Maybe do events occasionally to mix things up, but no permanent change.

Reduce the number of trees on Emerald Vale by 10% to 20%.

To misquote First Lady Nancy Regan: Just say NO to 8v8.

Actually, we DO look forward to your annual April Fools post.

or at least, give us the possible to burn them down

Can MWO please confirm that the 2022 Annual (Loyalty) Rewards Programme would count these:
~Ultimate Mech Pack = 2x Collector's mech pack, just like it was in 2020, 2019 & 2018 ?
http://mwomercs.com/...rewards-program
http://mwomercs.com/...rewards-program
http://mwomercs.com/...rewards-program

On the market to buy some of these, and such a confirmation would be much appreciated!

Thanks to the MWO/Cauldron recent patches, might be interested in getting these:
NTG-Prime(S)
MAD-IIC(S)
RFL-IIC(S) --> still awaiting quirk pass for this chassis!

you buy them all, i can see that of all the badge you have shown

[LordNothing]

replace "new game mode" with "new weapons" and i might get excited.

modes outside of fp are, well, skirmish. unless you want to make a mode specifically for fp, which no one will play outside of the hand full of fp denizens who remain. they will probibly complain that it displaces siege and then farm all the players checking out the new mode until they never return. so just do new weapons instead.

[Nesutizale]

Crusader...yah nice
Platinum...okay
New Map...yes, more please
The Event Mode Queue -> Could be interesting
Quirk Display Update -> Finaly

Skill Tree Reconfigured -> Okay now we are talking. Please let it be good, please let it be good.

Matchmaker -> Haven't played lately but worked as it is for me
Faction Play -> I think that should be a longterm goal
New Game Mode -> Please tell us more
Rebranding MWO -> Well since Solaris is gone it hsa to happen. To bad it didn't took of. Liked to play it.
Reengagement Campaign -> What does that mean?

Overall I would say the way you are comming out now with telling people that you plan on doing stuff without any specifics and dates is what the first roadmap should have been like.
I can totaly life with it that there aren't dates or any specifics but knowing that you look into things is more then what the first ittereation of the roadmap suggested.
Frankly, when I read the frist roadmap I put MWO aside. Now it has at least sparked new interest in me. I will keep MWO offline for the time beeing but I will keep an eye on the development. Maybe I will come back if things go the right direction.
I am still a big Mech fan but currently I have more fun painting mechs then playing MWO. Would like to see myself haveing fun with both again.

or do it based on real time population fluctuations.

Could the next map be less sniper-centric, please?

in fp vitric always plays out more brawly than campy. lets hope they dont change that.

NANDA-YO!!!!


POSSIBLE RELEASE OF
The Event Mode Queue*
Quirk Display Update
Skill Tree Reconfigured

Oh Hellz yes! First the Crusader and now the skill tree, bush, shrub reworked!!! FINALLY!!

Oh happy day!

i just hope i dont have to respec all 411 mechs. if they only clear nodes that were changed and reimburse the sp that is acceptable.

[Gas Guzzler]

Great!!

Try to squeeze hyper assault goose waffle in there too!!

[ToadBrews]

I'm happy for all the crusader fans but all I want is the Urbanlord

[Heavy Money]

Now this is looking like a Roadmap! In addition to the other things, nice to see more Platinum mechs so soon, and I'm very interested in the skill tree stuff.

Great work guys!

So, following the absolute dog-pile of a reaction over the last event, PGI ignore the majority of their custom base and push ahead with something not wanted?

Really hope that there is an option to avoid anything remotely like 8v8 that broke the last event for many players, otherwise there goes more of the player base and nudges the game closer to extinction.

According to data tables provided by steam and further collaborated with information provided by Darren, the 8v8 weekend didn't even put a dent in the player population. Apparently, for every player who skipped that week, an old timer jumped back in for some nostalgia. Plus, we got an extra week on the events, which more than made up for the 2 day hiatus. Mathematically, that boosted the amount of time we have to complete the event by 20%.

So I don't think your dire proclamation has any factual basis to back it up; and I say this as one of the players who refused to play that weekend, not in protest, but in disinterest.

[Sawk]

hmm me think, 12 vs 12 will still be played, i also think there will be an 8 vs 8, and if we are lucky some scouting missions 4 on 4, and of course faction play, we will see what form happens.
