Lets see MPBT: Solaris which started out on freaking AOL of all things then moving to Gamestorm, Then you have MPBT: 3025, and one that not many know of was ISWars. 3025 and ISWars never made it past beta. Kinda sad bout ISWars not making it out of beta as it was very indepth with logistics. I really don't know why they wouldn't atleast include MPBT: Solaris as that's what kicked off most of our careers in the Inner Sphere.

I remember seeing the bill from the old days when if you had AOL you were paying for both AOL and MPBT. Those monthly bills were murder for us back then.

There were also a couple other little spin offs here and there. Such as the original Starsiege before they brought out Starsiege Tribes and there was something for the Playstation like Mech Commander but for the life of me I can't remember the name of that one

MPBT on GEnie... found memories. Good old Uncle Skippy.


Agreed, it's part of Mechwarrior history, but I don't take offense it wasn't listed.



Cheers.

MPBT: Solaris made it beyond beta. I paid to play that game for many years. Quite a few people here played that as well. 3025 was it's successor that never made it out of Beta.

I was referring to 3025.

Thats another one that should have been listed, that is what started this whole jammy.

Why didn't they ask about if you had played super mario brothers one? I mean come on.

You must ask yourself why I am I holding up a picture of Chewbacca. Chewbacca is a wookie from the planet Kashyyk, but Chewbacca lives on the planet Endor. Now think about that. That does not make sense! Why would a Wookie, an eight foot tall Wookie - want to live on Endor with a bunch of two foot tall Ewoks? That does not make sense! What does that have to do with this Survey? Nothing. Ladies and Gentlemen, it has nothing to do with this Survey! It does not make sense! None of this makes sense. If Chewbacca lives on Endor you must acquit!

Love the Code Monkeys reference ^^

The only thing about the survey i didn't like was that i wanted to check both friends and solo...cause i do both.

I really agree there. It's nice to play solo at times to test your skills
