mechwarrior 3 i loved how lag shooting was a measure of skill and in mw4 tactics and group play was a measure of skill. or will i just be able to 1vs 10 a team?
any old zone players out there need a wingman or captian?

We hope it will be awesome. I also hope that net coding has improved since the days of MW3 so lag shooting isn't a requried skill that is adjusted for your connection speed. But hey, we won't know for a while yet.

Hopelly it is better the that.

Uh, no. MW:LL was God awful. Having played both, this is already MUCH better, and it's only in beta.

Don't listen to this guy, at all. Joysticks will be fully supported on release, and honestly, why even play MechWarrior if you aren't going to use a joystick?

I've known Mad forever.. and there is no need for joysticks. I used one in Mech3 and Mech 4(mercs too). Used a joystick for like 10+ years of mechwarrior playing. It's just not needed in this game. Mouse is way faster and more accurate.

MWO is overly arcadey kinda like MW4... If you want something like MW3 try MWLL

[xxx WreckinBallRaj xxx]

People don't seem to realize that MW3 and MW4 weren't accurate with Battletech source material and are in very different time periods than this game. This game reminds me more of MW 2 Mercs, which has a much more similar Mechlab, same era technology, and no things like Combat third person view or coolant flushing. It's more or less a sequel/remake to MW 2 Mercs, not those other games. Age aside, that was the best game in the series and that is the one they are mirroring here, with the Mechlab, view mode, time period, etc.

Wrong. Get more skill with a joystick. (Analog speaking in MW3/4 eventually in here.)

I highly doubt you effectively use a joystick. But if you do, more power to you. M/K is much easier and will be forever in MWO. I would explain why but I'd break NDA. Feel free to PM me since you're in beta too, I'll gladly explain =D

[Kyrie]

I believe that this game will be glorious. What inspires me to this belief is the commitment PGI has made to not just build a FPS/sim, but to integrate a whole layer they call... "Community warfare". See the official devblog here. I've created an unofficial index of player discussions on the topic here.

For me that is the defining element that (fanboy that I am) have been waiting for since forever. :-)
