How about the space portion of the Battletech universe? I know it'll be a couple years in the future, but once you guys get a few more games under your belts (or sooner, I wouldn't complain) I'd LOVE to fly around in my areospace fighter straffing Dropships and Jumpships while avoiding the super heavy Warships (or to see two Warships going at it). IT WOULD BE A GLORIOUS COMPANION TO MWO!!!

Aerospace Fighters
Dropships
Jumpships
Small Craft
Space Stations
Warships

They wont but they sure as hell could add at least some of the battletech background ingame, even if only as concept art or loading screens.

Like that dropship to the left of this post, or some tech at the computers in the mechlab.

They had a human animated for that teaser trailer below, i want him in my mechlab just moving his hand at the panels to get some sense of scale:



Please more fluff

Edit: They could even sell hangar fluff for MC...

Make APP games. They'd probably make more cash that way and not have to devote a ton of resources.

Cool, yes, realistic, no. Their teaser page is obviously written as to aim at new players rather than us. Right or wrong, I'm pretty sure PGI is trying to make a fresh start somewhere else. I have nothing against that, as long as MWO still gets attention.

I think they want to make star citizen, because they saw the $$$ and realized the entirety of the SC game is just selling ship models, a practice they have already mastered. But as long as it doesn't affect MWO negatively, more power to them.

PGI...wants to do more games.

I'm sure Uwe Boll wants to do more movies, too. They're about on the same freaking level, artistically speaking.

Holy Christ, necro thread... And this one was even mine!

I have.... Evolved my opinion. I want Star Citizen in Battletech skins... Anything less is well.... Less....

[Master Maniac]

Necro indeed. Something bizarre happened and put it right on top of the pile - that's why I posted.

I have a feeling PGI's in full panic mode about negative response and is sawing through the underbrush of the forums with their machetes, arms glistening with sweat. Or perhaps coated in tears.

Probably would have had a better community response a few years back if an AeroTech space combat game was announced and maybe integrating it with MWO in some fashion than what took place.

Holy accidental necro. Closing thread!
