Is PGI actually making MW5? Another Mechwarrior game led by Russ or is someone else leading the project? I'm having a hard time using words at the moment.

[Juodas Varnas]

I believe it was stated that the team behind MW5 is completely separate from the team working on MW:O.

Take that as you will.

[Wecx]

Just means not to pre-order.

About an hour ago I burped. A lot.

Oooooh, you mean it's a surprise? Maybe at Mech Con II they'll wheel out a giant cake and the lead designer will pop out of it.

Hopefully not naked.

I just threw up a little

[TLBFestus]

Not to worry, Russ is just the brains behind it all. I think Bryan "Transverse" Ekman will be in charge of MW5.

Spoiler

To be fair, someone intelligent and competent at game design could be responsible for MW:V

To be fair again, I could win the lottery this week. Wish me luck!

[Flyby215]

Another battletech oriented game? Well, I suppose it goes without saying that I'll blindly buy into it!

Gosh, I think I just threw up a little bit, too.

[RestosIII]

I just threw up a little because I have a cold and bit into an undercooked frozen pizza. Blech.

Wait, we aren't talking about disgusting bodily fluids, but just being worried about MW5:Mercs? Ah dammit. Well, I'm worried about it, but I'll just be crossing my fingers and keeping my hand away from any pre-orders.

Damn, that's three people who aren't chomping at the bit for a pre-order like a meth head who hasn't had a hit in two days.

Amazing.

Has anyone farted recently?

I ha to say it, no one else would and the laughing is a good stomach workout.

I do plan to buy it but
I will read reviews from at least three publications prior that purchase
so that when I do buy it
I know exactly what I'm getting.

While I understand
Having the same badge as me you could argue that it's only a drop in an ocean at this point

It probably means they get their own kitchen, coffee maker and meeting room.

The only pre-order I'm looking forward to is Battletech. HBS delivered a good presentation and their leadership had an awesome presence on stage. They exhibited a lot of charisma and exemplified the care and attention to detail I think the IP deserves. I found it telling that in 5 years they produced a decent amount of titles under their belt.

I bought that game too. Partly because it's Battletech, but mostly because of how the guys treat their community. Plus it seems they genuinely love the franchise and care about the game. What I can't believe is that I'm actually sad about MW5. I feel like a kid who just found out Santa isn't real at the same time he saw his dog get hit by a truck. This sucks.
