The "good" things


-added premium mechs with hard points unable to obtain for free players
-added colors and cockpit items for insance price tags
-added new basic mechs
-fixed very few bugs

The "bad" things

-removed knockdown to reduce tactics and imbalance lightmechs
-changed economy to reduce tactics since winning or capping is useless now. Only damage matters.
-changed economy to have less income than before, reduced immersion
-added ECM to completely **** up the way this game was played
-added only variants of existing maps and still we only have FOUR small maps to play on
-added halfassed conquest mode on maps not designed for that.
-added double heatsinks which are a mess (not 2x, too many hardpoints)

The "other" things
-added Endo and Ferro which are pretty useless for heavy and assaultmechs due to hardpoints
-changed the social interface multiple times and added nothing new
-most bugs are still there
-tweaked LRMs multiple times, changed nothing in the end
-changed mapmaking twice, still sucks
-added new bugs

Feel free to add stuff I forgot.

No no... you summed it up rather concisely.

[Tasorin]

PGI managed a solid "D+" with the dreaded "Come See Me" note in red at the top of the test.

I blame Paul, because how can a super Troll like him not crack the whip harder on the pubbies in the dev pit?

[Livewyr]

Constructive and new. Thank you.

[Flying Blind]

well maybe you guys should be making the game then since you have all the answers.

I'll admit that there are some things that frustrate me about the game that I really want fixed but I know they are working on it. the last patch gave me my first performance increase in ages and while most of the bugs still seem to be with us I seem to be suffering from them less often.

less QQ more PewPew buddy. this is still a great game that is all manner of fun to play. get over yourself

[Grraarrgghh]

Yep knockdowns were removed solely for the purpose of making light mechs indestructible, and has nothing to do in any way with code problems.

Nope. They're intentionally ******* with you.

[CypherHalo]

Really, I managed to kill lights in every other MW game I played without collision. I'm so glad it's gone and I hope it never comes back. They need to fix netcode to allow people to hit lights, not bring back collision.

Beyond that you're pretty spot-on, especially regarding Conquest mode. Seriously, add respawns to conquest mode and it will actually work. Until then, it's just another flavor of TDM just like Assault.

Then make a working concept and business proposal like every other developer.

Put up or shut up.

[Flying Blind]

respawns? really? I'm sorry but no. please no respawns ever. that is a terrible idea. having one life forces you to be careful and not just derp-charge into the enemy with all guns blazing. I do NOT regret that I have but one life to give.

Wait... I was given a business proposal for my part of the $5Mil MWO started with?

This part of the discussion belongs in the reSpawn thread guys.

And a nit... don't forget that part!

[MoonUnitBeta]

Oh look, another "sum-up" thread disguised as another way to get your complaints off your chest.
Seeing as how 100% of these "bad" things are known issues and have been beaten to death, it's kind of a useless thread.
You seem to make the the "good" list pretty short, and there's a few "bad" things that are entirely based off of your biased opinion...

I don´t like your initial motive of making this thread. Nice troll-attempt. Not more... Feedback ist anders...

Not really part of the game, but they have half assed banners around the net for ads

[Jason1138]

i think the issue is PGI has no real vision for where we're going, other than mass producing premium items

so they wait for people to ***** and then change game bits accordingly

SNIP

that aren't better than the normal versions, just different enough to justify buying them

[Vassago Rain]

You are this mad.
