The Jenner will be the ultimate in speed until we see the Spider in action!

The thing that worries me about ingame footage is that you never have the feeling that there are 30-100 tons machines walking / running around.

It looks kind of disconnected still and you never have the impression of force to the surroundings.

This is definitely the Mech for me starting out.

I'm sure being "inside" the 'Mech would "feel" different. You seem to get that impression in some of the videos. Also remember that the 'Mechs are powered by incredibly powerful engines and other mechanics/electronics to make them more agile.

I have a little bit of critique on this one: DO SOMETHING ABOUT THAT RUNNING ANIMATION...., please.

Sorry, but it looked awful in the scene where it showed his top speed.

Gonna have to agree with ya there. Guys? move the feet under the center of gravity to maybe reflect...i dunno a gyroscope? compared to the graphics the animation lost all of that dynamism you worked so hard to put in.

what's the deal in the last 2 second in cockpit shot? overheat, but who's that in the distance?

just wondering...

Whoever is your test pilot did a top notch job.

Very rarely have I seen Jenner pilots pull of those kinds of moves.

when you get on a high powered bike [motorcycle i mean] where you have more power between your legs than most passenger cars and the total weight of machine and rider is less than the seats alone in some cars, you don't feel like you are on a vehicle as much as you have added super powers to your own body.
you move with the power and grace of a ballerina on the race track.

and i suspect that what makes the tech part of battletech so amazing is that you don't get into a mech, you put it on and wear it.
a reason that physical agility of your body is important to maintain when you are a mech pilot.

so yes i agree, it doesn't look like tons of metal stomping around in the country side.
it's not supposed to.

yay ty for upload cant wait to watch it

[Rawne]

For some reason the Jenner always reminded me to Kuato, from Total Recall, with the cockpit-head emerging from the stomach. Also to a man running around showing his belly full of pride. Weird.

[Inkarnus]

very good i like it cant wait to make other players furious ^^
seems even the Devs have so much fun in it.
Great to see so much dedication
