In the interest of helping MWO become more popular, we players should narrow the field of options PGI is considering, regarding garnering community growth. Which of these do you think would best make MWO a more popular title in today's market?

I went with all three, but I would like to see your responses. Did I miss any viable alternatives?

Heres some references to help you appreciate the options.

megatron.. is this real life?

[Cygone]

Removing the ability to group outside of 8man premades only will lose MWO a HUGH % of its player base that they might as well shut-up-shop.

[Mongoose Trueborn]

Wow, you again? Your post aren't worth reading anymore.

The way to improve MWO is to fix the code and add tons of content.

[SlXSlXSlX]

Some speculate, note it is just speculation, that the net code might be unfixable. What if the new code never gets fixed?

Fix it as much as possible and add tons and tons of content.

*edit* ANYTHING can be fixed, it just takes talent, time, and resources.

As much as possible? You dont think a title going live (post open beta) with anything less than "good net code" is market viable do you?

[Joseph Mallan]

I couldn't in good conscious, vote cause the poll was loaded. Game needs more content but not Respawn.

[Bashars]

All 3 of those are stupid (sorry but thats the only word for it). Do you even read the forums?
You want voltron? Remove 4 man groups? So people could not play with others, just solo or 8 man groups. This really would kill the game.

[CDLord HHGD]

None of the above? << That's my vote.

[FrostCollar]

Oh, it's you again.
Yeah, nothing constructive to see here. Move along.

[Urienna]

Where's the poll option to automatically remove anyone who wants "respawns"?

Sweet googley moogley, I didn't read far enough to get to the voltron etc... crap. Seriously? I don't go into CoD forums and demand master chief be instituted, what the hell.

Edited to remove shocked over use of the word "seriously"

You seriously asked for Megatron or Voltron to be added to a game with almost 30 years of content to draw from? Are you trying to help the game or kill it?

Lets get the games basics and stability entrenched first.

I won't even go into the Voltron/Megatron thing.....what's the next poll? " Do you want this game to go console?"

@ Morsdraco....

Help it, of course. I mean for example... look at your sig. That picture is ... well you know, not exactly a super cool mech pic is it?

Adding in some mechs that not bt players would recognize, such as megatron, starscream, or voltron, would definately help to pull in a larger and more diverse player base.

Coolest mech I have seen so far, isn't even a mech. It's battle armor. I was told it cant be a mech bc its not in the lore. The design is there, they would jsut need to make it bigger. If you would prefer, consider enlarging some of the battletech armor to mech size, and including them.

I will say though, a premium voltron or megatron, costing around 5000-8000 mc, would probably net pgi huge profits.

Huge profits mean a larger staff, more patches, and maybe even eventually, some decent net code. Think outside the box man.

Are you trying to help the game or kill it?

[ReD3y3]

Attrition would be well received. (solo everyman for him self brawl)

[Percival Hasek]

Wow, the hard part is choosing which option sucks more.

[TruePoindexter]

Megatron is not a mech... Transformers can stay out of Battletech.

Voltron is its own can of awesome and should not be merged with another lest you dilute the combined awesome into something we colloquially refer to as doo doo.

[Bguk]

Where's the option to flag ignore certain users posts?

[Phalanx100bc]

You think Streakcats get targeted quickly.....???

Wait and see what happens if your pipedream of Megatron nonsense ever came true....provided there are still real MW fans playing by then.
