This was proposed by the devs themselves several years back. A group of fans on this forum lost their collective shit so loudly that the whole idea was scrapped. You know the phrase 'once bitten, twice shy'? The hand that CGL used to offer to the public was bitten off at the shoulder.
I remember it well... and sometimes worry I participated. I'm really open to a 3250. I essentially just want to see it through to Ilclan before that happens.
I also really don't see much choice for the future other than a time jump. So I figured we were just not talking about it. But we'll see.
New dev team of brilliant people. Should be fine. The old dev team was brilliant people too.
At the end of the day there just isn't much choice. You've got fans that only 3025 and fans that only 3050. Basically you just have fans that are in the same place that they started... and they're gonna be upset about anything you do really. So you just have to support that player base that wants new stuff.
That's always the problem though. Who are these people who are actively buying battletech stuff and what do they want? Kitsune413 loves him some sea fox stuff, some faction books and some objective books.... and he's not the majority apparently.
So lets make some Hotspots books and some Technical Readouts guys. haha.
