They officially 'Launched' this week, which apparently means they held a small event in California, added a patch that slightly tweaks gameplay balance, and added (Yet another) mech people can buy to the game.

Not sure who else still plays at all, but without a reason to grind C-Bills and the same old 2-game modes (Fight over the boxes, yay!) I'm not sure this game will hold my interest much longer.

They need new game modes. A better UI. Community Warfare. Something to entice me to load up yet another match other than to add to a mountain of C-Bills they 'Hope' I will spend on new mechs. But I probably won't because my hangar is full of mastered mechs and I only play 3 of them most of the time anyway.

Haven't touched the game since January, and won't touch it till community warfare is in. Which happens probably shortly after the (ghost) heat death of the universe.

I've had an acct since somewhere in beta and I think I logged in once... but I'm not sure.

The game is repetitive and boring. After unlocking all the catapaults, jenners, atlas, and hunchback models, I realized that there was nothing new to experience in the game.

Well, as repetitive as any deathmatch, to be fair.

I like it when Tarquinn says:

How many games launch these days with Deathmatch as the only game-mode?

There are so many natural choices for different modes that would be much more fun and give a purpose to mechs of each weight-class.

- King of the Hill (Hold the capture point in the center of the map to win)
- Mission (Team A: Destroy these two targets. Team B: Defend these two targets)
- VIP escort (Protect the AI controlled transport from point A to point B)
- MOBA
- Capture (Flag in the center of the map, both teams try to get it back to their base)

They need game modes with drop ship / War Thunder style re-spawning.
