I was not sure if it was intentional or some kind of weird bug since the trees lack decorationsPosted Image In any case it's ok.


i just assume the mech bay is in canada. being alaskan its hard to not see evergreens.

Somehow, I agree.

I appreciate the lights, but Christmas and the whole holiday season isn't for everyone. Having a simple toggle would be nice for those who don't wish to see it.

Don't get me wrong, it was a pleasant surprise to see the new theme in the hangar, (and I personally love it!) but I also understand how some would get turned-off by it as well.

My suggestion was to remove all "controversial" stuff from the game and focus on cannon, unit names, comp team names, pilot names, and everything else.

That includes everything from Christmas to Transhumanism.

Don't like it? Vote with your wallet.

You can please all of the people some of the time, and some of the people all of the time.

But you can't please all of the people all of the time.

Personally, I would rather just please none of the people all of the time.

If OP is caused genuine distress by christmas then he needs counselling, not an opt-out button.

And that is not meant to be an insult. Counselling is awesome.

You are not the main character. The world does not revolve around you. Nobody is going to change just because you dont like it. Get off your high horse, and bah humbug to you Mr. Grinch.


Yes, that is how i approach all those social justice karens.

However for christmas... Every ******* place has this horrible music playing all day.
Here it starts at the beginning of october, sometimes earlier. By the beginning of November i am done. I cant hear last christmas anymore. Too many ppl in he office have their radio playing ****** christmas music.
It is just too much of this **** for about 1/4 of the year.

Listen mate. If you celebrate christmas, I hope you enjoy it.

I do not enjoy it. I want to be left alone with it and not have it pushed on me every corner I turn. But every time I express my anoyance at it someone like you comes along and tells me I should shut up about wanting to be left alone with it.

Have your consumerism fest. Just leave me the **** alone with it. Thats all I ask.


Really? Stop looking for something to be offended by.,..damn crybabies.

Honestly, I cant get enough Bing Crosby. I'll sing this all year long, because Bing is da man.
Get some culture!



However, you cant beat the classics. Christmas of the Inquisition, the way it's meant to be celebrated!



If you want to stop the early release of Christmas music tho, there is only one way to do that... write some Thanksgiving bangers!

Happy get fat day you rufians!

Since we have touched on mech bay conditions . . . What happened in mech bay 7? When are repairs scheduled to be completed?

Merry Christmas. :)

Thos vets that still playing put your chrstmas bell war horn snow men, elves, and santa's in your cockpits and help grinch Klapps have a happy time !


On a more serious note, even front line troops tried to 'christmas it up, as best they could. So why not holographic tree's and a few lights ..

That applies to me mate. I hate christmas, one of my sadest times of the year. But whining on a forum about it like you did?
I struggle to get out of bed each day, still coming back from a complete mental breakdown. I have a smashed spine complete with nervous shakes, just b asic day to day is a fight for me.
And you go on about trees in the mechlab? That's far more offensive than any snowy trees.


I was on your side til this.

No one knows you or your worries and problems. So using using them as a 'gotcha' is kinda wrong.
