anyone else notice the warhammer in the "in game footage" why isnt it in here now? (i know about the unseen stuff so why use it in the first place?)

That's not even really the same game... same reboot of the franchise yes, but that was scrapped long ago.

thats a good point but why tease us with it and then say they are not going to put it in because it is unseen

And the Harmony Gold issue really took off from that trailer. As I understand it the mech was believed to be a far enough departure from the Warhammer that they ran with it, which obviously was far from the case.

oh okay that makes more sense thanks

I still play Mechwarrior 2 Mercenaries every few years out of nostalgia. I've played a few matches of MWO and it looks very promising! I very much hope that in the coming years you'll incorporate co-op missions (either against AI, real opponents or a mix of both), and perhaps faction standings, faction mechs and equipment, player rankings, Solaris V tournaments, medals/awards/unlockables and the like. Oh and while I'm at it... aircraft, tanks, turrets, dropships, a galaxy map, interstellar travel, territorial shifts, regional markets, black markets, good/evil missions for fame or infamy, heck, the whole nine yards! I'm getting ahead of myself, but I can't wait to see what you guys have in store .

I hope to have a mercenary corporation one day flying across space to find the best contracts and deals and make a huge pile o' c-bills, who knows that dream may yet come true.. In any case, time to read some more dev-blogs!

*Edit: Read a few more dev-blogs, looking goooood!

I never understood why they went from the 3rd Succession War trailer to the eve of the Clan invasion timeframe?

That jump never made much sense to me.

guess the Clan Invasion story just changed everything about MechWarrior.

Tow easy reasons.
1. To many want to play clans (power complex).
2. LOStech. They would be really limited with weapons and tech In the 3rd Succession War. All the tech 2 stuff would not be there (no XL engine, Endo, FF, double HS, pulse laser, ER laser, ER PPC, Gauss, Artemis, ECM, BAP). 13 Weapons and no alternative upgrade items. Really limited. Would be good enough for a single player game, but not for a multiplayer game.

From these two key areas, early design pillars emerged in the form of:
Urban Combat to address circle strafing and long range sniping.

But still, in the very end we have PPC-Warior Online

umm i would love to see the 4th and the the war of 39 where the lost tech was just coming in and it was rare to have it . For the record the tech 1 weapons was a total of 17 not 13.

would love to see a campaign set up where you would have to watch your ammo and armor levels and the like . think it would be less reclis pilots.
