erm this game looks interesting im sorta new to mechwarrior series is this game quite demanding on pc requirements?
I would like to try it if its not too demanding. my pc is a relic that can play alot of games. but i ts single core 3.0 so im not sure if it could run this game...

Well, Cry Engine 3 is not very pretty engine, but it should be highly optimised. Try to find a video of someone playing Crysis 2 on your specs, find a forum thread about it, or any refference it is actually possible. You can also try to download their SDK, run the forest level, set to the lowest settings and pray.

The requirements of the series were highly varied. MW 2 was a marvel of its age pioneering 3D acceleration, MW 4 on the other hand, was still good, but nothing superficial both in terms of graphics and requirements for the age.

Good luck trying it, I had to play on 1 Ghz Pentium 3 PC for 10 years and it still serves my little brotherm, so I know how hard it is to play games on old hardware.

Whatever you say. I wasn't going to activate "enhanced imaging" to confirm anything...

Great. He's stoned. So that's why they're so laid back with their time-based estimations.

Damn your free health care (and obvious prescription-based benefits) for citizens, Canada! DAMN IT ALL TO HELL!!!

There are loads of good American small brewing companies, I'll admit that our big brewing companies have direct pipes to unfiltered sewage plants however.

Isn't Budweiser now owned by the Dutch?

Yes lets not confuse Budwieser, Coors, and all the other swill out there with the word "lite" or "light" etc.. as "American Beer"

Some of the best ports and stouts I have had have come from AMERICAN (And Canadian) micro-brews..

Because lets not forget.. Mexico has Corona, and a bunch of watered down swill, and even the Europeans are not immune to mass produced lighter than water swill (Hieniken), even Canadians are not immune to making crap light beers (Labatts, etc..)

BTW like to point out Yeungling is the largest AMERICAN Owned Brewery, and their lager has color and body, thier "Light" Lager, is darker and has more character than a Bud or MGD, much less thier LIGHT beers. They also make a killer Porter, and a Black&Tan (Which is their lager and porter half/half mixed).

I also give you Sam Adams.. they make a great number of beers that aren't crap.. (and some that are just pain odd). THier Octoberfest is one of my favorites.

Then there are all the microbrews out there.. like Highland Brewing Company, Old Dominion Brewing, Legend Brewery, Abita, and those are just a few I favor.

So you hosers up there need to keep that in mind.. I mean really.. are you ones to judge what is good beer ???

And I've been drinking Firestone Walker IPA most of tonight. I've had few things from Canada that can compete with that, outside of Unibroue's offerings!

Did a little bit of editting to that big monitor to see if I could discerne more details. I can definitely tell where battle damage has been done to the mech. Here's the result:

[Adridos]

Also, it has 5 weapons, two of which are destroyed as it seems. Chat screen is also easily seen.
And at the top of the cockpit, you can see something resembling a sticky picture, but I am not 100% sure.

Could you make the same with the screens with mechlab/ menu on them, or are they too small to see anything?

Man up! The burn is good for ya! And 'sides, a good whiskey can be pretty smooth.

40% ABV vs. 5% ABV. Do you want alcohol or just being full of liquid? Liquor is about efficiency! You get frucked up much faster.

Stop posting about drinks, it is off-topic and has no real meaning. Also, the fact our neighbour state has the biggest beer consumption on the whole world can say a lot about the fact it is really off-topic even for someone with a bit of interest to those things.
