With Star Wars The Old Republic, I don't know if a single person who expected it to be first or third person. They advertised the game as an MMORPG, and that's what it is.
World of Tanks: Your missing the fact that you may get completely trumped in a match by someone, and then when that person goes into his next match he's getting rolled over. There is no perfect tank. It's all about skill and teamwork, and where to put the heavy. Just like Mechwarrior.
Now when you say old school, I hope you're not refering to MW4's system of "Everybody take the biggest thing you can, and let's really mess this franchise up." Don't get me wrong, I love mechwarrior........ but in the previous games there was no reason to play defensively, there was no reason to scout, there was no reason for teamwork at all. Other than all running into a moshpit.
No, this game will most likely not be like old school mechwarriors. It'll be better. It will be the next generation of our beloved franchise.

Would you rather pay a monthly subscription, sir? Atleast they allow us to play every tank but the premium ones for free. It just takes more time than if we payed.
Yet another one of these guys *your words lacking information*
I dont like people with prejudice no offence I got no reason say something laching infromation.We are all grown ups here.
The Old Republic is the worlds most expensive game project it took 3 years ofcourse first teaser all but a video teaser and sound recordings about saga.People tought they will get something similar to *Jedi Academy Jedi Knight* teaser video was nothing like a mmo and sound recordings were telling space battles,arena matches of Mandalore and Imperial spies which non of them have anything to do with game.
When I said old school I meant movement system and other elements. HEAT,TORSO TURNING,SPEED UPDOWN,POWER UP AND DOWN and JUMP JETS these are the old school in mech universe unlike MechAssault no heat no ammo purely fps.Mech Warrior 4 wasnt that bad as you said and I remember speed of light mechs were very usefull.
@GearBox
Some mechs do have hands not for punching, sometime only way to recover a mech husk was another mech.Back in years while Earth Hegemony was still alive they created IndustrialMech to aid under manpowered colonies and they were used almost in anything as a work force mulitpler.They had hands,saws and sort of stuff.Later Earth Hegemony Armed Forces fitted them with weapons but other colonies made them as military specialised.Very tall and heavy mechs used to carry other mechs when they cant move on their own or if*when* a salvage team isnt availbe.
