http://mwomercs.com/...-joseph-mallan/ please post screen shot of your millions and lets say you made 100k per game which is not what most get but illl give you that
1. 1ook per game
2. 15min games
3. 40mil divided by 100k = 400 games
4. 400 x 15 minutes = 6000 mintues or 100 hours

of course this is assumeing you spent no money at all

not to defend mallan or anything but that's easy to do in 3 weeks. that's only about 33 hours a week which is exactly as I estimated

Translation of the last post:

"Waah Waah I am bored and I want all mechs NAO! I don't wanna put some effort into it. I am so bad at this game it takes me forever to earn a mech! Unfair!"

You want to compensate missing skill? Pay some money, dev's need to make a living from something. They don't program this because of charity. And mech slots are cheap.

These days people get a great game for free and they still complain. I bet if dev's hand out cash to go with the game somebody will complain that it's only 50 bucks or something.

You are not getting the point. great you got 2 atlas for blah blah blah...there a a ton of mech ALL with diferent play styles that will take you for ever to get and equip AND YOU'L HAVE TO buy the space to have them along with the other three mechs for each one you like to get the tree skills. This is a P2W. If you want to be stuck in the same mech for ever good for you i dont i like to play differnet styles plus i dont have to time to grind. And i did get frustrated like they wanted us too and bought MC stil doesnt help.

So you want 100% of a F2P game delivered to you gift wrapped the moment you open the door for $0? How did buying MC not help you? Did it not allow you to buy mech bays and premium time? I think your expectations were a bit on the completely insane side of the road.

All the current mech variants together would cost you 13200 MC in Mech Bays which is roughly $60. Add in some premium time and you would be rolling in mechs in no time. Add in some more MC and you would be straight up buying mechs.

If you believe that just playing the game is a grind, sorry, this is not the game for you, Beedles. Because that is all there is to it.

Sure, pimping your ride is fun. But it does not change the game. You like it in a trial mech or you will never like it. Want to speed up the money part? Buy some MC for a hero mech and premium time. Won't make you a better player though.

Just play those matches, work on your teamwork and tactics. Money will come by itself.

you miss my point here. I'm talking about some of the most expensive mechs in the game. any other mech would be millions cheaper

http://mwomercs.com/...mentvoroshilov/ LOL in three weeks huh

1. 100hrs divided by 21 days = 4.76hrs... you have that kind of time i dont

thats assuming you didnt get a day off from playing

[superteds]

so if you're time poor spend some REAL MONEY then

that's the point of F2Ps


stop bitching that you can't have everything all at once for no input you self-entitled moron

[TruePoindexter]

Premium time alleviates some of the grind. Since this is a F2P game this kind of thing comes with the territory. You can get your mech given some play or you pay a little and reduce that time or pay a lot and get the mech right away.

I also want to point out that the average game does not make it the full 15 minutes - it's usually substantially less. I would say the real average is around 8 minutes. with some outliers. YMMV

[Noth]

I can earn a million+ in a couple hours and that is getting anywhere between 50K- 120K a game, hardly something that a good player would get. Playing only a couple hours a day you can get an Atlas in a week. It's really not that slow.

[McRoll]

Point is, he probably makes 30 k in a won game, so it takes him a bit longer than that

Not like this is the fault of the game mind you.

164,477.54 cbills per match average 117 matches played. that's about 19,188,000 cbills plus the free bills they gave everyone which bought my first atlas
honestly, it's not even that hard. couple that and the fact that I just sort of have the game running in the background for half the time because I'll go somewhere without closing it. I'm starting to think you just suck bad though

I currently have a balance of 53,896,945 CB and average 174,179.88 CB per match with premium time and have played 1207 matches since OB began. That is about 11 weeks of play time at an average of 2 hours a day. That means without premium time I would have made about 168,000,000 CB and would have spend most of it, but would still have 10+ fully teched out mechs on top of the founders.

[DerelictTomcat]

To me a grind is replaying something over and over because there is a sticking point to get past a boss/level or replying a part of a game to boredom because your trying to get a specific item. In MWO all I see is the game, if playing the current game is nothing but a grind to you then when do you think you will be happy?

[MadMarauder]

I have been playing this game on and off since closed beta. and its getting not fun at all. It takes WAY to long to make cash to get items to run mechs and god forbid you like a OP item because all that cash you spent is now useless because they WILL nerfed the hell out of it. Bottom line is they need to change this from pay to WIN to something else. THEY hope all you people will spend cash to get the stuff you NEED to play, instead of waiting for ever to get it.

P.S. I know the fanboys will pull the L2P, its not a PTW. but it is, just see how long it takes to make cash to get a good mech with all the gear you need.(founders have a unfair advantage and NEVER should have been issued a cash increase that is not available to everyone else.)

Go play Uncharted Waters Online and then come back and tell us progression is too slow in MWO.

You get better numbers by playing better. Getting component destructions and assists add up fast. I typically don't make more than 100k a match and I can get an atlas in a week or less playing just a couple hours a day.
