MechWarrior Online
 

http://pc.ign.com/articles/122/1224425p1.html

This brings back my childhood memory. I really love the control mechanic of the old games, and no game has come close (or anything that I know about). Really looking forward to this one.

Uh oh :uhoh: I truely hope they make it good. Or else ...

Free, they say? Interesting, I might try this out if ever.

Given that it's my first real exposure to the Mechwarrior franchise, I must say the article makes MWO sound like World of Tanks with mechs... but BETTER.

Probably the only F2P online game I'm looking forward to at the moment. :D

Yeah, I can't wait for it either. I loved MechWarrior.

Not to be a jerk, but isn't there already a thread for this? :o

I tried searching, but it didn't come up.

You could try the old game (not in legal way :p), and it's still a fun ride. I like MechWarrior for the control mostly. Now if only I could build a battle station for this game...

Good grief, I haven't played MechWarrior since.. what, MechWarrior 2? I sucked at it back the too, being the little shrimp I was. Now that I've gotten better at gaming in general, this is as good a time as any to see if my MechWarrior skills have improved too.

:p

Try asking a mod to merge them together. :)

To be fair, the title of that thread would have been as misleading for new posters as it was for the OP.

Thread merger with this thread's title perhaps?

I feel that this game is going to be overshadowed by Hawken, I don't know why, but can see it happening. The last time I played a mechwarrior game was in 2000, and it was mech warrior 3. Good memories, hopefully the game's buying element is only for cosmetics.

^from videos Hawken looks more like a CoD, while MechWarrior is more like a BF :D

Indeedums, Hawken does look good though. I'll still take MechWarrior over it, just because I had some great times on the previous games. Also I don't like how hawken is more about the close quaters/ fast mechs.

Dude, hawken its just CoD with jap-ish robots, while hakwen its for noob cod players(sorry for the joke)

MWO is the AWESOMESAWCE of western mechs and!

and there's another thread here showing everything about the game

Like I said, I will choose Mech over Hawken. As long as the paying elements arn't going to make the game pay to win :)

Really really looking forward to this, I know one thing I'd probably be doing alot is messing around with customizing my mech, it's stuff lik that I can waste my time away on.

You'll see me roaming the land in ma pimp Mad Cat!:D

Dynamic tag cannot be rendered. (PrintableThread)

*Jaw drops* what graphical engine are they using cryengine or unreal? Looks awesome

I'm currently piloting a Mackie and my autocannon 10 is firing all over the damn place

No single-player campaign? No sale.

Dear developers,

Stop ruining my childhood with your bro gamer multiplayer shooter delusions of profit.

No love for you,
Cori

They're not selling it. It's free to play.

It was either that, or not make the game at all.
