Matchmaking and the arbitrary DPS and HPS (plus resulting DPS/ton and HPS/ton) resulting from weapons firing their TT damage values at comletely distorted rates of fire. This leads to above poster's experience and builds that do not resemble BattleTech.

TBH, my biggest issue is the number of spamthreads made by the same few people to beat the same dead horses.

Voted money specifically for repair costs and the rate that you gain money. It's a large barrier to entry for new players, especially after buying your first mech but before you can afford DHS or an engine to really start customizing it.

I'd really love to see a tutorial process that forces you to play X matches with each trial mech, and when complete rewards you a sum of money that combined with average earnings can easily afford a medium-heavy mech.

The repair costs for heavier mechs and high tech are concerning to me for non-premium players too.

this game still blows. there are so many annoying things abou it

That's not really a game issue, that's a forum issue. The idea of this poll is to see where most players think the major problems with the game are, not the forum.

[Corbon Zackery]

Can we get a all of the above.

Because some of the things listed need tweeks

Some need huge fixes

Bug's yea lot of movement bug, hopper spikes, random disconnects (real or user caused)

[Insidious Johnson]

Sorry, netcode wasn't listed as a choice. If you have to lead with lasers vs some players, the rest is pointless. No vote.

[RumRunner151]

You have no option for New Player Experience. I think the learning curve is too steep and there is not enough attraction. IF I were PGI, I would put everything on hold and try to make the game warm a fuzzy for the new non-mecwarrior fan to get strongly addicted.

My biggest problem is the lagshielding on fast mechs. It's not even about lateral movements, you can shoot at a Jenner who is running away from you in a straight line and not have a single hit register on it! It's getting beyond farcical now.

[Jacmac]

I added netcode/programming to the Crashes/Bugs choice.

[Leetskeet]

Why isn't the netcode and lag on this list?

Nevermind

Netcode, tired of wasting half of my gauss ammo on mechs that are running in a straight line at me and yet doing no damage.

[CycKath]

crashes, massive upswing since open beta

no chat lobby in game so ppl dont have to go to the fourms to answer the ? for the new guys.
to ask if anyone is looking for team up.
and just the fact ppl love to BS with each other.

hit Detection/Lag Compensation/Netcode

When shooting fast lights with a laser, I have to lead them a little, shooting dead on sometimes I see the target gain heat, visually hit, but the "you've done damage" indicator doesn't go off.

Lack of game modes and maps are my biggest peeve, but the most pressing issue should be fixes to the entire new user experience so there's actually still a game for me to spend my founders MC on sometime in the future (right now the game is not worth spending money on).

[stjobe]

I'm having shedloads of fun playing the game.

I don't have any "issues" with it; it's in development still and it will change a lot. Stuff will get fixed, other stuff will break, things will get tweaked and poked and peeked at constantly.

Why do I need to have "issues" again? Don't they have a dev team to worry about those things? Can't I just go on enjoying the game?

[The Cheese]

ok, fine. My biggest problem with the game (as opposed to MWO overall) is the core. Stability and net code.

Make it so I don't have to lead with my lasers (I can deal with it, but it's not ideal), and I will love you forever.

[Beo Vulf]

nice poll, but I rank several of your issues equally. Maps, Ballistics, HEW's, Mechs, C,B,P,N, or S, and the interface.

[IIIuminaughty]

Im tired of all these scrubs, need pros to kill
