Wow! Well, probably wouldn't be all that well received.
Interesting they have the game handbooks on there. I wonder if they'll be useful along with the game? Are they taking stats straight from the tabletop game?

Jumped on the $25 level a little while ago. The video looks great, can't wait to get my hands on it!


Throughout history, poverty is the normal condition of man. Advances which permit this norm to be exceeded — here and there, now and then — are the work of an extremely small minority, frequently despised, often condemned, and almost always opposed by all right-thinking people. Whenever this tiny minority is kept from creating, or (as sometimes happens) is driven out of a society, the people then slip back into abject poverty.
This is known as "bad luck.”

They dropped a little trailer for the game. No gameplay, but I like the tone and music.
I *really* hope they include a way to watch a round replay in real time with a flying camera or automatic cuts.

Very interested myself considering they have some sort of a way to play actual missions (unlike a certain BattleTech arena shooter). Hoping this continues on the track it's on.

The whole game will be mission based. It's a story-based game, not a Coop FPS smile

There will be PvP MP too. It's TBS, something we've been waiting for since the early 90's.
Still hoping for co-op, seems like they may have said it could come later on afte release, but I may have dreamed that part.

Yeah, but the game concept is mission based single player story game.

MP is only an extra addition.

MWO is from the bottom up a multiplayer-only game.

Yeah, I had an idea that might be the case.

I hope there is a map and mission editor for this too!!

Dev Q&A, apparently a regular thing.

44:35 they talk about customization and staying with the spirit of the mech instead of totally changing it's character weapon-wise.
Sounds good to me!

Interesting... they shipped it on July 25, so it took it's sweet time to get here. But nevermind, it's here. I was originally going for the next tier, the one with the flight jacket, but stupid "priorities" got in the way. Really like the new Atlas head logo though!

No, the freebirth scum in the area won't have the cranial capacity to fathom the banner. It goes up in the gaming room. biggrin
