Is there going to have more to MWO?

For now, only 2 game mode, wich take less than 10min/game....

I don't see how this is going to survive....
There is not a lot of things to do except grind for having all the mechs....

I mean, it'll be fun for the 1st month... But I don't think people will stay for years...

There is going to be more, it is called 'Community Warfare'.

Not too much info on it yet. Here is the Dev Blog on it though.

This is going to be simply awesome.
How are we going to decide how the SimHQ group is going to run? Merc or with a House? Seems like an affiliation might be more dramatic.

I was wondering the same thing. I think wait until more details come out so we can figure the pros and cons of each.

Right now I am leaning toward a Merc unit, seems more fitting somehow.

What are the others opinions?

Any Battletech fans that have a favourite/hated House the want to put a vote or a 'no way'.

So far I haven't seen any Grinding, I kill a Mech and don't get anything for it, no XP, no credits. There is a lot about the store that is vague, like for instance how much are things that you can buy Mechs, Armor, Weapons etc.. If there is a way to earn your way through it I haven't seen it. At least with titles like War Thunder you can see the levels and credits you need to purchase.

you gain credits after each game.
You don't earn XP with trial Mechs, so you need to save up to buy yours. The cheapest is the Commando, at about 1,6 million

The game doesn't take off until you're in a decent mech and customizing the build. Testing and tuning is half the game IMO.

I've tried it for a few matches, but I am having serious issues with the tiny view distance and the incredible fog. It means that I just can't ID mechs from 300m away, and generally have no idea what is going on. Do I have graphic settings set badly, or is this game just not for me?

Use thermal vision, not all the maps have fog.

You're using the zoom and target lock right?
When modules are opened up, some have to do with zoom and targeting, as well as the pilot's skills.
