All internet game forums have a negative vocal minority that seems like the majority. When actually more people are playing the game and not posting who like the game. Even when we have placed numberous polls on the forum, 80-90% say they like the game.

One of the Devs said he has had complaints about everything being OP. People have to realize(who are new to MW) that this isn't soldier vs soldier warfare. It's electronic warfare. Otherwise this would be called PersonWarrior Online.

I know it's hard to counter new things, but I've been playing MechWarrior games for a long time. I didn't even need to play the TT to know how to counter everything so far in this game. Laggy fast mech: Streaks or lasers. LRMs: Fast mech. Streaks: ECM or a fast mech or range. AC20: Range. Good pilot: another good pilot or 4 LRM boats.

So people new to MechWarrior and gaming forums, don't give your hopes up. You can find a game of MWO anytime you want. If the game really was horrible, that wouldn't be the case.

Hey guys. This person here, along with me, posted polls where at least 80% of the people liked the game.

Actually that isn't what my poll said at all. I love how you redefined that I shall go ahead and bump my poll so you can reread the stats.

liked =/= thought the game was the most amazing thing ever with zero flaws.

Thats the purpose of gaming forums nowadays: Give the critics (and whiners) the feeling their voice is being heard so they'll post in your forums. Therefor you have all the criticsm concentrated in one easy-to-monitor spot.

Keep your reasoning and common sense off of the forums. Making sense is OP.

Yeah I need to go back to playing and leave the forums to the grumpy people.

[AlexWildeagle]

don't worry be happy

[siLve00]

just check the user numbers of the forum

last time i were here there were normaly 800-1.000 ppl online ( guests and members )...the numbers are dropping.

the only reason could be : PGI is fixing the bugs so fast that ppl arent complaining anymore and just playing...
well atleast that answer would fit into your pink party MW:O world where everything is fine.

i would consider to wake up and to see that MW:O is slowly dieing.

Right. Because numbers in forums are dropping. Makes totally sense.

no because finding a game is taking longer at any point in the day.

The game is losing players.

They should add a population counter to the "lobby".

They used to have one.

They removed it the first patch after going open beta, I WONDER WHY.

I just come to the forums to remind the stupid people that they are still stupid. reddit.com/r/mwo has way better information and conversation.
