For any vets who are looking forward to another long grind to give them some fleeting reason to play this POS game: well good for you. Most people aren't bored enough to reset 75% of their progress simply because Russ tells someone else to press a button. Length of a game does not always equal quality. Have fun spending another 1000$ on Russ and Paul's vacation homes.For all the new players just joining or soon to join MWO: Get out your F***ING wallet or become buried beneath the avalanche of grind, get boot stomped and called a potato by vet comp players with meta mechs and meta skill tree builds and strap in for the most BS covered ride of your life with PGI at the wheel. If you are lucky and have disposable income, you may some day be able to compete with anyone who has played this game for a year or more. The skill curve, which in this game was already more like a skill wall, is now a skill drop from space into a 5 gallon bucket of Canadian beer urine while holding 17 rabid cats and getting a root canal.The "New Skill Tree System" is really the "New Cash Grab System". Russ\Paul thought up a way to make more RL money $$$$$$$ and are changing C O R E gameplay elements to get that money. If you cannot see the blatant cash grab here, I feel sorry for you. These changes are NOT to expand gameplay and give you more value, these changes allow for additional ways PGI can charge you money. Have you seen the consumable tree? Come on!"Dont refit your mech, buy a new one! And buy a new mechbay too! You cant pay for mechbays with c-bills, losers! Like switching modules around? Not anymore, suckers! Modules dont exist! PAY UP! HAWHAWHAW!! MMMMMMONEY!!!" -PGIAnd when Russ\Paul have to push through a s**tty idea which benefits them and screws us, all they do is tell us they are making a game ruining choice, let us freak out and have a miniscule amount of input, and then make less edits than we want, and BOOM. Its live. So its guaranteed they will get what they want, with only minor tweaks to their horrible ideas and the fact that they gave us input makes it all ok. The grumbling eventually dies down and we all just deal, because there are exactly ZERO other modern multiplayer battletech games.GG PGI.Keep in mind the state this system was in when PGI was about to make it live. You all remember that, right? You were all there for that BS, right? Funny how fast MAJOR CORE GAMEPLAY can be changed when PGI wants to, but other things we have been asking to change or be added FOR YEARS get a PGI response like: "Coding is hard, OK?"This is happening because PGI wants it to happen. There is no turning back.F*** me.I hope the new $kill tree system makes you all very very happy.
