Ha! You mean the IB site? That's Sparhawk's. Or you mean the mpbt info site? I haven't maintained that in a couple years, I suppose I should dig it out of the closet now when I can find time...

And, as you said...

...to absent friends. Balshone should be here.

Ya the IB Site I tried to join

I was on MPBT 3025 in the last months...a shame it got pulled because of the whole EA/Microsoft thing. Sadly I can't remember if I ever picked a side after all these years...but I was on there as Grei as I recall.

[Kaelus]

Ahh, I remember so many names from MPBT:3025, alas i never played Solaris or such.
I went by and still mostly do Kaelus, on the Davion side. I ran mainly with a guy named ***** and Zenwolf solo for so long, until I hooked up with the Scorps. Wonder if any of you remember my fearless Jenner ( I had no self preservation instinct which seemed to work in my favor mostly. I had a particular thing for killing Urbies the moment I saw them. Dunno why, they just rubbed me wrong. I recall many of your names the craziest battles however were probably against the snakes specificaly Wolf's Dragoons.
Hope to see you all on the battlefield
I remember on the last wipe being one of the first to get a hunchie and nobody would drop against me...anyways good times!

Hey Nitehawk, good to see you, was checking the Marik boards to see if you had arrived yet . Always remember our times in TC fondly.

=EGL=

EGL,

Those were some grand times. The stables/units that came onboard were an incredible bunch. It was my honor to have been there for you, and everyone associated with the TC.

Regardless of house, it has been a wonderful thing seeing so many names, spanning just about every era of our game, once more under one roof. With luck, many more will come.

Nice to see ole names and friends. Anybody seen Dragon, Remo, or Stinger? Thought for sure Stinger or Blade would be trolling about here already might have to just send them a nudge on Facebook

On a side note...they need to fix this Invision Power Board layout they have here. It is jacked. Guess they were in a hurry trying to put a custom skin on thier Invision Power Board Forum. Aren't ya Glad I skinned the House Liao Forums a lot better that this layout Metro

Some of us have waited a long, long time to see a proper Battletech online game come to life once again. The herp-a-derp of MW4 just doesn't feel right. Hopefully this will.

Could not agree with ya more.

Hello everyone.

Yep, Played Genie online at $3-$5 an hour, then on the MPBT3025 , kesmai gamestorm aol, before EA screwed us all over. I for one am happy that they have nothing to do with this project.

Great to see a lot of familiar names coming back online!

Sad to know we have lost alot of bothers and sisters in the last 10 years who will miss getting to play when this goes live.

Great to see you all!

Thanks to PGI and IGP !

Howdy Metro...how ya been? Ihave a few cobia's; you can bring the brandy

K-Wa Karl ! The name is very familiar . The only Davion General I remember is Kodiak.

Also remember a guy named Handlebar "I wear the mustache" . Don't remember who he belonged to . Just remember meeting him at GenCon in 94. He did , indeed , have a great big handlebar mustache.

you probably remember seeing my name as
karl Hahn =DO=
as i usually got volun-told to be the duty officer weekdays from 7-11 mountain time
and if i remember right kodiak was my march commander

your name jogs some memories but we are going back almost 20 years for some

[Ossie]

Spent a lot of time playing MPBT:Solaris on AOL and Gamestorm in >>GGEDON<<. Mostly missed out on the 3025 transition.

Been waiting for a similar game ever since!

[Gobstopper]

Holy Hell there are a lot of familiar faces here! Glad to see everyone!

MPBT was likely killed because of overhead costs and pressure to compete with the MS juggernaut. From what I recall, the decision was to kill MPBT in favor of what would eventually become GTA. My memory could be off...

Was also part of the deal with the sports game franchises and console direction.
They could either compete or each take a niche for 4 years then readdress.

Man a lot of familiar names up here. And yes The darklord up there was the MT331 one.
As in one of the top players in the 3025 game rankings (and Genie way back when).
And Propwash is as in VWE/VGL/Mechjock Propwash.

lots of good memories with MPBT 3025. My first online game, i will never forget it =)
