Not at all. PC are capable of far more than a console and I have no interest in playing a toned down port.

Newp. Don't want to deal with the compromises that will have to be made to game play to dumb it down for console use.

I guess there's no point in adding to the No's.

No, no, NO! No dumbing it down for console users.

There's simply no reason to do so. The developer's F2P model would not work, plain and simple. MORE IMPORTANTLY, it would encouraged dumbed-down gameplay.

By "both the other mechwarrior games" do you mean MechAssault? Because that's a whole different kettle of fish. The actual Mechwarrior games started back in the late 80s, with MW4V released in 2002. They were sim-like to begin with, though MW4 made it a little less so. MechAssault was probably more of a true arcade game, and most people here consider it erm... *not well*.
This is an F2P game, and as far as I know they don't truly exist on consoles in the same way they do on PCs, for various reasons. Even if it were ported to a console, there'd be a fair bit of rage about it on this forum because... well, "consolizing" a PC game tends to remove complex elements (with MechAssault, while not a port, being the exemplar of this).

God i pray they do not. Not after they screwed up the mech assault games. I would more then likely stop playing if they did that. Though i am glad there was mechassault so folks could gateway into a proper mechwarrior game. I know i tried it once and then said NOPE no more.

Not really, no.

I have never been interested in consoles, so it really doesn't do anythiung for me. But the Mechwarrior games on the consoles I have seen and played all universally were dumbed down beyond belief, and generally, sucked. Sorry.

Edit: Consolizing is a crime

"consolizing"... kinda sounds rough... like sodomizing the game or something.. which in the case of all Console Battletech games is pretty accurate, actually.....

I hope not.

EDIT

It seems to me that there might be some demand for a third Mechassault? Granted, that does not seem to have much similarity with Mechwarrior, but it helps the franchise as a whole, therefore it should be considered in my opinion.

No, there will be enough mental 12 year old foul mouthed morons without adding actual 12 year olds.
