Regarding luthien, its not a bad map at all. In fact its quite a good map. Its sins are appearing often, and being quite ugly. Few things remind me of how good MWO used to look (look up closed beta gameplay and you'll see what I mean) compared to how it looks now. It definitely had the beauty beaten out of it for the sake of running on grognards' ****** up raid array PCs and that was a mistake.

First off, I personally hate the mini map system like the other night Luthien was played 8 times in a row and I played all 8 matches its horrible game mechanics to put your player base through this for what 5? or 6 years now?

Do you mean map voting? Yeah I doubt that's going anywhere.

One more thing you all at PGI attained your goal of overpowering a lot of the weapons do you think you could reverse this trend and make the mechs more defensive and playable longer per battle? thanks for your time I hope you read this post.

Weapon balance is done by the Cauldron, not by Russ Bullock. They're fairly transparent about their motives and their justifications for the changes that they make. You seem to be insinuating that there's an improper agenda going on here, and I'd love to see you substantiate that.

There was a guy here who threw a shitfit because whenever people asked about raising the minimum requirements he pointed out that his bespoke RAID10 home computer wouldn't be able to run the game.

raid is for nas. id rather people buy fast nvme storage, at least gen 4 x4 lanes so that im not alone when the game loads. that thing is freakishly fast. unfortunately that upgrade didnt make the game start any faster cause i got to wait for everyone's spinning rust.

that only works if you have enough lanes for all of them.

I honestly wish they would just go back to a random map selection. Random map and random mode. Cut the modes down to assualt, domination, and conquest mode.

they are all skirmish anyway and at least have an optional way to win.

Dropping the voting would also save time actually getting into matches.

then cut that timer down to like 45 seconds instead of 80 or whatever it is now.
