    Do you not see the title of your topic?


    PC issues, hackers 10x worse that what we already have....oh wait, that's basically it.
    There ya go.

    Plus, they'd have to maintain the Xbox and (possible) PC versions.

    lmao, it was bound to happen. Hell dude, we all know, if we're getting a PC port that its gonna be before Christmas, XBLA exclusivity is 4 weeks. Well the norm, at least.

    No they said that they can't deny or confirm it.

    Everything can happen and i think Grudgey is a troll.

    I agree on the troll part, but in a thread and twitter message they said there are no plans for it and they have their hands full with the release and possible DLC... remember this is a VERY young company and a BRAND NEW franchise so a PC port would be splitting their resources in half.. a very dangerous move, especially when PC Title sales are what they are right now...

    Sigh.. another xbox fanboy sadly. how are they splitting up their resources they have already completed the xbox verison it is'nt like the game needs everyone on their to team to tweak it every day. they could tweak once a month. PC sales aren't down at all have u seen steam sales they have been threw the roof for the pasted 6 months

    Define through the roof... Steam has reported record LOWS for the past year... Also steam is a hub for sales, not a single developer.. Valve is doing well, but ask the 42 studios who closed their doors in the last 9 months how lucrative PC sales are.. PIRATES ruined the PC sales, and the will likely NEVER recover..

    I play TONS of PC games, Heroes of Newearth, SC2, TF2, Counter-strike source, BFBC2, Played WOW for about 6 years, APB... the list continues.. I am definitley not an Xbox fanboy.. if you had read any other threads on the forum you wouldnt sound so silly... I support my own industry...

    The matter of the fact is, Uber is young, if you dont know what it takes to support a game and create DLC then you should not assume things... I assure you ALL their resources are still spent on the XBLA version of the game right now.. as the Devs have stated on the forums many times..

    Again, a couple posts above yours a Dev says XBLA FTW. Meaning they are very happy with their sales.. and will continue to develop on this platform.

    Steam sales are good, depending on the genre. Pirating Indie games is taboo.
    Even torrent seeders/leachers frown upon it.

    Many games that are Multiplayer Powerhouse usually aren't pirated as much, especially not MW2, you NEED Steam to play online (well, without problems at least), games that allow Dedicated servers, however, are pirated a lot.

    Look guys, it's beyond safe to assume that they are in fact busting out a PC version while working on future content for both platforms and contemplating balance tweaks. So I just want to take this time to reiterate what was previously mentioned by another poster...you guys have to absolutely take these two things seriously

    First and easiest, you have to implement push to talk and mute options. Whenever you get a console port to PC and get stuck with open mics for every player, all you ever hear is painful static constantly. It never stops. People are morons and assholes, and when you ask them to unplug the mic they'll just tell you something along the lines of "eat a bag of dicks," and then they'll proceed to scream into the mic. This is the sad reality of PC gaming chubsters out to ruin any good time they can given they likely lead unsatisfying real lives.

    Secondly, dedicated servers are a must. The thing about the casual PC market that games such as these universally appeal to is that they don't know any better when it comes to their PC or their connection. It's bad enough on xbox live when you run into an unplayable match due to the host running comcast or some cheap DSL line in 2010, but at least connection(and perhaps location depending on matchmaking code) is the only factor. On the PC side of things, you also get people that host with 5+ year old store bought Dell machines that can't even break the double digits in frames per second on top of their bad connection. Gameplay experience aside, the lack of dedicated servers will severely hurt you in publicity, and ultimately sales. People will be tearing your *** apart on popular PC gaming forums every single day. It happens to all console ports to PC that solely rely on peer 2 peer gaming. I can see the familiar wall of "LOL no dedicated servers fail! DON'T BUY THIS GARBAGE" topics now. Dedicated servers will not only make the game more profitable for the company, but will create a much smoother gaming experience for everybody. Honestly, it'll feel the way a shooter is meant to feel. It sucks when one player with a terrible connection has the power to ruin a match for everybody involved. It's one thing that is normally expected for console shooters, but a PC shooter fan will not accept this day and age.

    That wall of text said, I'm having a blast with the game on Live, and I can't wait to support your endeavors on the PC as well. I'll even rebuy DLC for both platforms to show my support. Just take these suggestions seriously. Fatshark did for their fans with the equally excellent Lead and Gold, and their actual team of programmers and artists is made up of THREE unheard of swedish guys. If they managed to bring dedicated servers for their PC release, I think you guys can pull it off for the much more well known Monday Night Combat.

    I'm still kind of wondering why this thread hasn't been locked when a PC port HASN'T been confirmed... -_-

    Not to mention that mods/people from uber entertainment have posted in this thread. Perhaps that's saying something? Possible hint hint

    Reguardless of the likelihood of a PC port...

    Are you implying you have something against bags of dicks? :mad:

    If it's connected to the internet, this is true. The above is always true if the Internet is in the equation.

    So much speculation... :D

    I've been here for quite a while now, 2 years almost to the day, and I have read every post concerning a possible PC port IIRC. Want to hear my expert opinion on the topic? I'm not sure if there will be a PC port. I hope there will be but I couldn't really tell one way or another.

    One thing is for sure, I have never seen one of the Uber devs saying it was impossible. And they certainly have been thinking about it. I do know that they want to get the Xbox support and DLC right and they are concentrating on that for the moment. (And I fully support that decision.)

    Another thing you might want to consider: It might very well depend on factors that Uber cannot influence if MNC is ever ported to any other platform.

    I'm hopeful but I wouldn't bet any money on a PC port yet.
