Piranha games did in one year what others couldn't do in 14 years. You should find that very encouraging.
And as a Producer (Nice video BTW... no hugs yet) I love this Game development model. (F2P + Agile)
Its possibly the most challenging and rewarding project I have ever been a part of.
No if you will excuse me I have to go get designers to talk to engineers.

Oh, believe me, I find everything I've seen out of you guys on this project extremley encouraging. I'm giddy with anticipation for this game, and you've all been extremely connected to your loyal fan base. No one can say you're doing a bad job with this game, and I definently don't feel that way either.

[ENRIQUE] During a playtest driving a Jenner, I realized the full power of the AC/20 when I was wiped out with a well-placed shot by Paul’s Atlas… I could hear that scoundrel’s evil cackle from the other side of the office. I learned never to approach an Atlas in a straight line again: zigzagging is a must, using Jenner’s speed to your advantage…,or sneak on ‘em from the back.


I love this!!!!! It is one of the most awesome things about playing with people in the same vacinity!!! I really love it when you make that cackle, or hear it, just before reality sets in, then, Blam! Blam! LOL Thanks fellas, I think this is is better than beer!

Just to add a bit of info:

Thomas is our main gameplay engineer.
Evan is our senior character modeller.
Enrique is our senior animator.

... and I'd destroy all of them 1v1 in MWO.


hehe, read that and could hear Paul's evil cackle. Posted Image

These guys are enjoying what they are doing to much to have it fail. Great job guys! Posted Image

Just for clarification, it's what they WANT, what they'd LIKE to see. They aren't saying those mechs are confirmed to be in the game.


Well, I am just pointing out the possibility - trying to read between the lines - and obviously, the developers cannot officially confirm it yet. However, there is a good chance that these two mech types and others, that have not been mentioned yet, are being programmed and tested for the game right now B) ...

... while mechs equipped with a PPC as standard weapon are sort of overdue, even more I will be looking forward to gauss rifle armed mechs ...

This is me. I run hot and fast ... and dead.

[EVAN] I’ve always wanted to work on robot games. I grew up with Macross, Gundams, Patlabors and other Japanese ‘mechs and always been fascinated with the details of the machines.

Gotta go back to the roots. Nice to see a fellow fan of the classics.
