Yeah, I'm looking forward to it since I never tried MechWarrior games, although I LOVE robots.
It has online right?

Yea, but it probably doesn't support it's browser anymore. Probably have to hookup via Hamachi or something.

My game was MW 2 Mercenaries.  I even played in a league back in the day using Kali, heh.

Mercs was nice but I was extremely disappointed when I figured out that no matter what you did the salvage from missions was nearly 'fixed', like Id kill mechs by blowing off both their legs or well aimed cockpit shots....but nooooo, can't salvage it, or the weapons, even though you did zero damage to the arms or torso.

Sad

[/quote]I didn't like Mercs because it had Thermal Vision for seeing in the dark instead of Image Enhancement. I had a shitty graphics card, playing MW2 and Ghost Bear in wireframe was the only way I could get through the game :/

Also, I love the Stone Rhino & Kodiak:
MechWarrior 2 Ghost Bear's Legacy intro

Also, I loved these games too (made by Activision after it lost the Mechwarrior franchise):
Heavy Gear Trailer
Heavy Gear 2 Intro

Heavy Gear is seriously where my love of indirect fire weapons started. Heavy Missiles, Mortars & Grenade Launchers were some of the most powerful weapons in the game.

I heard this was going to be released tonight at midnight.

Download should be here when it's up.

Never played this particular Mechwarrior, but I'm a fan of the series and a free game is a free game. Smile

Sweet.  Never did get to play it.  Hopefully we can find a way to hook up some online.  I remember playing MW and MW2 back in the day as a kid.


<+Karrde> welp, time to learn some basic patterning skills
<@Negate> 12121212121212121212
<@Negate> there is a simple pattern
<+Karrde> I changed my mind.  Gonna cosplay as a gay demon from hell and get negate raped instead XD
<+Caffeine`work> Karrde: Gay demon? Why would you need to cosplay just go as yourself
<+FlyingMongoose> Caffeine`work: Karrde would actually have to tone it down some.

The only PC mech games I really got into were Earthsiege/Starsiege. Is Mechwarrior anything like those?

Mechwarrior is the best mech game series ever made. Hope this helps.

You inner-sphere scum were too ass-backwards to comprehend, let alone develop enhanced imaging technology.
