[QUOTE=paul1290;16972231]It's still coming. Mektek.net still has to finish upgrading their hardware to deal with the traffic and make sure the final version they'll release is stable. It's probably still going to take a while. Unfortunately, they found out about it about the same time everyone else did, so they didn't have time to prepare beforehand.[/QUOTE] Nice to know, I keep checking the site but they don't seem to update it regularly.
[QUOTE=goon165;15941901]As soon as I saw the Atlas appear though the smoke I started laughing maniacally, also it says "INGAME FOOTAGE" in the bottom right corner. Crysis eat your heart out. And why you would engage an atlas at close range with anything less then another atlas is beyond me.[/QUOTE] Daishi, bitches!
[QUOTE=Craigewan;16968849]Well, they're sticking true to their timeframe and trying to avoid overuse of clan tech (Since if I remember correctly, 3015 was before the first clan attack on the inner sphere) Edit: And OMG Urbanmech!!! I can't believe they included that piece of shit (In a good way, I can't believe it) Oh, and the actual mentioning/use of Lostech is pretty cool too.[/QUOTE] Way before...
I just orgasmed massively in my coffee and I am now drinking it all up since it relates to the new game. I can't honestly wait! MW4 was an important part of my gaming life, even if I don't know two shits about the storyline.
[QUOTE=Rofl my Waff;16975698]Way before...[/QUOTE] Yeah, I thought so, I just wasn't sure how far before.
I am also looking forward to Mechwarrior 4 being released for free since they're including Mekpak 3, which adds a LOT of new mechs and weapons. It'll certainly bolster the amount of players, looking forward to the massive scale battles we'll be having!
This looks awesome, how the hell did I miss it? Anyways I really loved the old Mechwarriors, but I had nearly forgotten about them by now (not completely forgot, just given up on hoping for a sequel). Also did I see buildings being subject to physics (and not simpel physics either) in the trailer or are my eyes decieving me?
Awesome, I think that's more mechs than were in the previous ones combined!
Not if you downloaded mektek. It gave you about every single mech in the battletech universe.
Also is there any ETA on the free Mechwarrior 4?
Apparently we may be seeing it [url=http://www.mektek.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=141832]next weekend[/url].

Can you get out of your mech? Also, I hope they keep in those tiny mechs, like, mansize mechs. Had fun blasting them in a Thor in Mechwarrior 3. Also, I loved exploring in Mechwarrior 3, remember walking for miles and coming across this lake with a cabin at the shore and stuff, also this city some place that was really cool. Man, I loved Mechwarrior 3.

Too far before their time. But if we're lucky, we'll have pixelated infantry running around like in MW3 that we can crush :P
I can see them releasing an expansion or DLC involving the Clan invasion in the future.

But real infantry would be cash, but I'd probably more want to be able to actually exit my mech, run round in first person and jack a mech, or something, if I could I'd probably jizz.

Talking about MW5 here of course.
[QUOTE=KorJax;16079738]I have that joystick, it looks cool and is functional in buttons but it moves terribly. [B] The spring-based stick is horrible for aiming or movement. I even having trouble using it for something like FSX. I do NOT reccomend this joystick[/B].[/QUOTE] This. I bought it to replace my awesome Sidewinder force feedback 2, the USB cable on which was completely fucked, and I found myself going back to the sidewinder, despite its tendency to spaz out occasionally, because the movement on the evo was fucking awful.

There was no Madcat in that mech list, >< Now that was annoying mech to face but, a great mech to use since of its clan weapons ^^

[QUOTE=O'Neil;17129528]There was no Madcat in that mech list, >< Now that was annoying mech to face but, a great mech to use since of its clan weapons ^^[/QUOTE] Correct me if I'm wrong, but this one is set before the clan wars, so we won't be seeing any clan mechs or clan tech.
[QUOTE=Morbo!!!;17125665]What bullshit is this?[/QUOTE] It's pretty much reason why the "Forbidden tech" mechs like Warhammer have never been in a MW game to date pretty much. Of course the legal action they are trying to take won't do anything. This is mostly because Robotech's legal lawers are just trying to make a quick buck and the reason why there ARE forbidden tech mechs in MW5 is because S&T has every right to use mechs like the Warhammer, they've already confirmed I think that it's not going to be an issue.
[QUOTE=Free-lancer;17130424]Correct me if I'm wrong, but this one is set before the clan wars, so we won't be seeing any clan mechs or clan tech.[/QUOTE] Obviously. This seems to be continually not understood in this thread. 1. Kerensky leads his loyalists out of the innersphere - 2784 2. This game - 3015 2. Clans invade inner sphere - 3049 This means there is [b]no chance[/b] that any clan tech is ever going to be in the vanilla version of this game without an expansion. Unless it's like a persistent campaign which is highly unlikely.

I really hope they don't cave and take them out... or worse use the revised additons, most of them are fugly.
I was wondering about the legality of the warhammer in the trailer.
