22. I'm impressed at the distribution of ages on that poll. Guess we have a lot of old school MW / Battletech fans here :)

39, playing the tabletop since about 1988, and I have lots of disposable income with Battletech and Mechwarrior written all over it. Bring the content Pirahna. Bring it!

Majority of votes have landed as I would have assumed. Up until now, anyway.

The question is... will they stay? :) I mean... First Person View Focus etc... I think and hope this game is still designed for a more mature audience despite its pay model.


Who knows. For all we know, there could be a high turnover with all the vets around here (I'm pretty much new to this thing). Best case scenario would be that the ones who don't try hard will be fodder to the better players. Worst case, flaming and cussing.

Only if you're under 27 or so. Otherwise It's simple comparison. I think 15 is young, and I'm 21. Put on a sliding scale, thinking 21 is young to a 30 year old makes perfect sense.

First experience with MW was in 1989 or so, with the DOS based game. Been hooked since.

19 years old, been here since the good ol' MSN Gaming Zone for MW4 Vengeance and Mercenaries.

Edit: Hey there Violence, I noticed you are in Houston. Pretty cool, I'm actually in the Spring/Woodlands area.

I'm 25 yeas old currently.


I'm a little surprised by the vote, I have to say that this is a MW community with rather young average age.

Been playing MW related stuff since the original FASA Battletech box set (i.e. second edition) that was released after the Battledroids game. I'm 39.

Now give me my gorram BLR-1G Battlemaster!!!!!

Still have the original box set for it, CityTech, AeroTech, BattleForce...etc. too.

Never run a Locust through a city at full tilt and expect to survive turning.
