Why am I a lone wolf?

[MechZ1lla]

Yeah, I know. It hasn't been implemented yet. Once community warfare goes live, it'll come up.

I hope, anyway.

BETA

Currently this is the only possible play style they have until Faction Warfare is implemented.
In the old forum you could pick a faction.
Once they get everything moved over from the old forum you will be able to.

Community Warfare is not yet in the game. When they put that in, that is probably when they will shift from "Open Beta" to "It's done folks!"

[Valder]

It'll be cool when community warfare comes out, it doesn't matter until then. The PCGamer article about the game goes into detail on what it's gonna do and it sounds neat. Factions will matter based on what planets you can fight over it sounds like, and being a merc corp instead of a house means houses will hire you to fight in their name on the periphery. Check out hte article if you want more info!

I think they said approx 90 days after Open Beta they will look at adding in Faction Warfare. I think it will be a bit longer than that, but that is what was said.

90 days after launch. So probably 6 months from open beta.

Link? But I hope they don't make us Steiners fight Davions. Lore wise we're suppose to be allied and our leaders are married to each other.(Your Davion king has the Steiner queen for his wife)

I do not think it will be that bad. I am thinking at least 2 more months.
We shall see.

No, they said 90 days after Open Beta. Launch was also supposed to be around 90 days after Open Beta - meaning that Launch and Community Warfare would be about the same time. But they also said DHS was going to be added Oct 2nd, and we all know how that went.

Well, what I mean is, the Dev quote you're referring to referenced Launch and not Open beta. So Community Warfare is slated for 2-3 months after launch. Unless Launch is happening really soon, it'll be a while before CW is in.

If you wouldn't mind, please show me a Dev post saying this. I am pretty sure that CW is one feature that was designed to be implemented post-Launch. I'd be perfectly happy to be wrong in this case, though. I love CW.

It's in the December issue, I don't think you can view it for free yet. However, if you get that issue you get a code for the coconut monkey bobble head and a red skin for your mechs.
