However, One thing that would make this game even more EPIC would be if these Giant Bipedal Mechs were more than simple Tanks.
They have legs.. Let them have the full range of motion that Legs can afford.. or else. whats the point? might as well just have Tracks and build much cheaper Giant Tanks on tracks.
I want my Mech to be able to Sidestep, Crouch or Kneel down. Also, if i'm all out of weapons, or ammo, Why can't I throw a Front Thrust Kick and try to cause some kind of melee damage instead of standing around completely useless? Mechs with Articulated Arms should be able to throw punches or hold melee weapons and go in Melee if they have to.
I remember in Battletech, some mechs had melee 1h Axes they could wield... Of course.. some mechs don't have Articulated arms.. and have giant cannons instead of arms. so they can't throw punches.
This would allow for alot more variability between different types of mechs and I think it would make things ALOT more interesting. Because right now.. these mechs are just tanks.. and the legs are just there for show.
