i don't play much because of the lack of maps and mechs. you can max out a mech tree in a day, there's basically nothing to shoot for until they introduce new mechs or abilities or maps or game modes or SOMETHING

I wish I hadn't wasted 30 seconds reading this. You obviously don't understand game development or maybe even how computers work. Have you ragequit yet?

There was no real option for me to vote for.
I like the genre of the game and I remember playing a mechwarrior video game many many years ago (probably MW2) and really liked it. But never played the TT or read any books or anything like that. I was more unto heroes unlimited and ninja's and super spies.

91 of 110 votes were fans of the franchise. Where is everyone else? Talk about bias. When this game is good enough to attract people who have never heard or played anything to do with the franchise it will be a success. Anything less will be a repeat of MW4.


What do you expect? People who make the effort to get into the closed beta will always tend to be those who are a fan of the franchise/genre.

Your poll did not offer the options of "I quite like the franchise", it was "don't care" or "love" and it didn't differentiate between fans of the original TT and/or the various games. I don't love the franchise but I voted the last option because the other options would have been wrong (as I like the general direction the game is going and most of the decisions so far)

Gee, do you think you might have a Sample Bias going on? That maybe the most likely forum posters ARE fans of the franchise? :)

What game are you playing??? This game rocks ... it is a joy to play ... every OP weapon or mech has a way to counter ... learn to play the fracking game.

OP, you left out this option:

*No, as a responsible adult who only plays video games for fun, my time is a limited resource that is better spent raising children and working my business and not posting on stupid MWO forum polls/threads about how stupid and immature they are and how the OP needs to get a life and stop trying to get everybody on the internet to agree with his stupid, immature, and narrow minded view of this video game that is supposed to be played for fun.

I like how this thread, despite being rhetorically organized into a tantrum by the OP, contains a poll showing that (as of right now) 70% of voters like where the game is going. Puts to shame every thread where someone claims that everyone hates the game (but plays it anyway).

I never played any Mechwarrior before this, and I love this game because it's an awesome game and not because I have franchise attachment. Voted thusly.

I'll admit I didn't read all the OP, because what I did read was someone complaining the game isn't the way they want it. It probably will never be. Move along.

Look, its a beta. This game is changing all the time. In 6 months every problem you are crying out your V is going to be irrelevant or non-existant or just something you will never like (ie the fact that LRMs and light mechs exist at all). You need to relax and let things develop. Time is a string of events that do not happen all at once. You need to let time work its magic on this game which happens to be in mid development (and probably should technically still be in closed beta).
