I agree that it looks fantastic. BUT, this should have been advertised alot earlier than one month from launch.

Does anyone beside me notice a similarity between this and HBS Battletech.
Seriously, it looks like a FPS version of that game

Truly amazing! Is this going to come in Spanish, or should *I* translate it? Remember, PGI, I offered to do it like I did with MWO...

Only got one gripe. I hate the new UI. Really hate it. Love an option to go back to the previously shown ones or even an MWO style hud. Otherwise, looking amazing boys and girls can't wait.

Okay, I actually like this one.
I guess I was right not to cancel my preorder after all...
Hmmm, I wonder if I should go and buy an RTX....

Well, yes. It also has procedural generations of missions and levels. And the whole merc life thing is based upon sourcebooks dating all the way back to 1987 Posted Image

And guess what, that NEW UI is actually a throwback to the old MW 2-4 games! But they did promise mod support, if memory serves.

I would hope so. HBS did that pretty well.

You do realize... that any Mechwarrior game that actually gives us more lore... is going to be like HBS Battletech, including Mechwarrior 2 Mercs and Mechwarrior 1...
Because they're based on "Battletech"?

So, afaik, you will get an Epic-key for the game as well

Yeah that looks like a different kind of AC20. Burst fire AC 20, never heard of that one before, but then again, I'm not an expert in Battletech lore.
