3PV.

Would rather try to attach my junk to a methed up weasel with a nail gun.

People who like 3PV are bad people, they should not be trusted and should be subject to the wrath of the Space Marines.

PURGE THE UNCLEAN.


i liked it in MW4..as i played it long time ago and first person used to give me headaches... :)

I was wondering when this was going to show up. And as I figured, this community is quick to slap the 'MW clone' sticker right on. Come on, I expect better of you guys.

I helped out the guy back in early early stages of this game. He's a great guy, and he's not in this just to make more money. Honestly that's how I see PGI with MW, not this guy with Dark Horizons. Dark Horizons actually had a game back in 2005, of which this game is based on. Inspired by games like MW4? Obviously. A rip off? Not even close. Lore: Invasion was actually kinda fun for it's time, and in my opinion was a great game in its own right.

The guy's come a long way with this game. Please don't be so quick to judge it.



well because people are comparing it to MW4 thats why they called it a MW clone...and i can guarantee you that a lot of players will invest money in this game (i for one will)...reason?? well already its got more game modes than MWO, already screenshots for the new map are out their..so i have kind of more faith in them than MWO now..

dont take me wrong...its just that the the pace of development in MWO is way to slow...specifically towards maps, UI, new chasis...

Three reasons why I'm absolutely not intrested.

1. 3rd person
2. quick and twitchy movement seems hillarious
3. Its not Battletech so its not a real MECH game

In terms of improving graphics, I tend to believe that when I see it. I can't think of too many games that looked like crap in pre-alpha, then looked amazing when they were released.

But graphics aren't the major concern I have about that game.

Unlike in MWO, you can turn 3rd person off for free. Don't have to spend money on premium time so you can go into a private match and spend more to lock everybody in first person.

This is all really funny stuff. Thanks, OP.

One's a up front paid game. MWO's a F2P. No contest, really. Up front wins every time in my book, and nearly every problem with MWO can be traced to it being a F2P game.

It looks interesting to me. It is not that the game is going to make me stop playing MWO, battletech is battletech you know but some variety of mech games to choose is welcome. Except hawken, that is meh....

Having another mechwarrior clone on the market can only be a good thing really. Having their own IP instead of relying on battletech means they will be able to do more in the name of balance. If it can draw int the competitive power gamers it might make for a more pleasant experience for those who play MW:O because they are fans of the universe.

Except that was a different game that was scrapped.

They didn't imrpove it, they killed the game and made a new one... different thing altogether.

Good, I'm glad.

Hopefully with another F2P game that caters to a similar market as MWO, it will give PGI a little competition, forcing them to either put up or shut up.

Honestly, 3 days and they had bots to play against? That's fantastic, unlike PGI's "Waah Waah Programming AI is hard to do so we'll never make a single player campaign"

That sure as hell didn't stop anyone in 1990, 1995, 1999, or 2001, and we're paying gobs more than what people paid then, so why the hell is programming AI somehow so difficult now?

CW is not even something I really wanted. I wanted a single player game. CW is just "At least it's not just going to be a generic Kill everything and get the most points on the leaderboard multiplayer game".
But here we are two years later, and all PGI ever does is balance tweaks and matchmaker tinkering, I'd sooner have five people disconnect every match and get pitted against nothing but DDCs, if it meant we'd gotten Community warfare when we were supposed to.

Looks kinda like they took more of their inspirations from Starsiege myself.

Thanks for the link.

It's worth taking a look at.

Can't figure out how some of the posters on this forum can dismiss something they have
never tried.

C&C out....
