I don't like this F2P garbage. If you guys want to make games like this make an iPad game.

What a shame that no one can keep a lean studio that will produce a mechwarrior title instead of *********** around the office and thereby making publishers not trust their timeframe.

Too many cooks in the kitchen, and too many people think that 'designer' is a legitimate entry level position.

I was just pointing out you would get something for the money you spent unlike F2Pay games.

Well if this game were to do /well/ enough, I'm sure we'd be getting a boxed game. Maybe.

For me the game would have to be a cross of EVE/STO/MechWarrior/SimCity that should cover all the elements of the BT Universe.Heck I would pay $500.00 USD for that. :D

I always wanted a retail Boxed Copy like the OLD DAYS when PC gaming was truly exciting and you would go to the store and pick one up when it hit the stands.I enjoyed reading the guide and looking at the Game Map if one was included.I guess I am just one of the long past gone "BALDERS GATE GENERATION" :D

I would like to see a starter box much like APB and League have (yes League actually has one, hard to find). Give say 10m C-bills, maybe $60 worth of MC, some weapons and mechs, and a premium subscription. Would be some nice visibility for the game.

Not to mention I would like MC cards for all this cash I carry around.

No im the same way but like Padic said things change today its all about cheap generic products for fast cash or shallow games for fast cash. The old PC MechWarrior games and even the Xbox titles were made by people that cared more about quality and content than cash. Posted ImagePosted Image
