I sure hope we get a few environments with low gravity. If for no other reason than I want to see a Hunchback go flying backwards when it fires its big autocannon.

I would really enjoy the challenges this type of battlefield would present.

Or you could just play MWLL. Low gravity really doesn't add anything to Mech combat.

Actually, low-gravity battlefields would have quite an effect on 'mechs being hit by large numbers of ballistic and missile weapons in a very short time. It takes less force to override gravity and send a target onto its back or side when the force of gravity is lowered. In contribution to this, perhaps it would have a similar effect amplifying on jumpjets and so-called DFA attacks?

...or I could speculate about a game I care about.

Well, also, less gravity -> less downward force -> less impact of friction.

[palebear]

Low gravity could also mean less atmosphere, which means things that rely on generating lift would behave differently.
Missiles taking longer to turn, for example.

Pretty sure we've covered this... a few times.

One of my favorite missions of MW2 mercs was iceberg delivery mission. Would be cool to fight on an astriod or small moon or something.
