MechWarrior Online

Post by andy25100 » 19 Dec 2011, 12:21

Since Piranha games are making a reboot to this amazing series by making it an online game with mercenary corporations and online matches i was wondering if anyone else is excited for this and if enough people are want to make a corporationfor escapecraft.

If you've played the older games the amount of mech types & weapons available the possibilities for an amazing game are limitless. ---> http://www.sarna.net/wiki/Main_Page :twisted:

I'm hopeful they don't screw it up. It's been too long since the last MechWarrior game.

But @OP, that video is old and not relevant anymore. It's two years old and long before they decided to go F2P. http://www.escapistmagazine.com/news/vi ... ed-UPDATED

Also, for those wanting some good ol' MechWarrior action from back in the good ol' days of 2002, MechWarrior 4: Mercenaries was made free to download in 2010. Here's the link: http://www.mektek.net/index.php/home/ar ... oads-r1204

Also, for those wanting some more recent action, a total-conversion mod for Crysis (and Crysis Wars) called MechWarrior: Living Legends is free if you own Crysis or Crysis Warhead. Can be Steam or retail. Only the Crysis Wars/Warhead one is being updated, since its better optimized and has cleaner code. (Also my older brother worked on this mod.) Links: http://www.mechlivinglegends.net

I had already reserved my name couple months ago, I'm keeping a close eye on this.

I would have went for this one but i don't know how it is for you but for me it doesn't work.

And the video is the same, yours is just more recently uploaded.

Like with the new Tribes this is another game series I've been looking for an excuse to get into. I played Mechassault 2 on the Xbox, and while it was fun I didn't sink a lot of time into it.

Now where the hell is my Battlezone reboot?

I signed up for this months ago. I cannot wait for this to come out. Hell, it will give me an excuse to break out my old joystick.

You know how I said I was hoping they didn't screw it up?

I played it awhile ago, hated it, and have only heard terrible things about it since then.
