It has been known for some time now, that the next MechWarrior game will be a Free2Play MMO-like thingy. And damn, the more info comes out, the better it looks! Check this out! (http://mwomercs.com/news/2012/03/157-developer-answers-5-mech-warfare) :o
So, anyway, iirc, they are planning to have a beta or something in the summer and you can already register and reserve your pilot's name on the site - click the big Register now button.
So i was thinking - are other cRPGers excited about this? Maybe we could form some group? (Merc company? Or a group of IS MWs?)
-
Iam somewhat excited for it because I hope it to be some kind of WoT with Mechs, which would be awesome and make me addicted.
-
I believe it will be a ton better than WoT. I remember reading about how they plan to balance the battlefield, so that it is actually worth playing with light and medium mechs, rather than heavies and assault mechs. Besides, mechs are not tiered, just classed.
-
That´s cool, too(Also I meant more general gameplay...I hope there arent such things as stupid skills like magic and shit).
What I´d really like to have are a lot of possibilities to customize the mechs, I mean the looks and such.
maybe a bit like Front mission evolved if you know that, there you can change every part of your mech and the colors.But with more weapons would be nice.

FUCK,dumb game,the name Hannibal WAS FUCKING TAKEN

This is made of win, looks like they are remaining faithful to the BattleTech roots. I so want my PNT-9R Panther.
-
This is gonna be pretty fun. Reminds me of a fast paced game I used to play...the fuck was it. Will update when I remember. It's like 10+ years old for PC....
edit: omg I found it http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G-nome

Have you played any of the old Mechwarrior games? I assume you haven't if you think magic and stuff is involved lol.

Iwasnt talking about actual magic...Of course i know there is none involved in that universe, I was talking about magic-style activated skills and such("Battlecry" and other stupid shit that wouldnt fit into a mech-game).There is always that danger when it´s called "MMO".
-
Damn I remember the times of MechCommander, "oh no a MadCat!!!" :) I can be totally in this one too, just post here if you guys are doing a clan thingy ...

Hmm, signed up for this, and Hawken ... looks like lots of goofing off to do this summer.
-
Reactor online. Sensors online. Weapons online. All systems nominal.
I hope they don't screw this up.
-
Haha I remember playing the original mechwarrior on SNES with my buddies when we were like 10 or 11. Good times. In hindsight not a huge fan of that type of game though.
