MechWarrior: Living Legends 10-24-2010 Playtest Impressions Discussion

[Scruffe]

this is fraying a lot more nerves than it is soothing >_>

[Virt]

Thanks Dev for sharing progress and giving us something new to talk about.

[Spanish Inquisition]

That's... that's not an Osiris with 2 PPCs on it, is it? So not only is it a glass cannon, but it gets hot enough to form new glass?

Perhaps we're getting engine heatsinks?

Revamped Thunder Rift? (16) Or TC Thunder Rift (15).


Also, devs, tell us the one thing we really want to know: Your hardware specs, and your frame rates. Sure, that's two things...

What type of mech is that on the left hand side being repaired?

[Cujo]

My hardware specs:
ATi 4870 1GB
AMD Phenom 9750 2.4Ghz
4GB 1066 DDR2 RAM
Windows 7 64bit

I get like 15-25 fps...obviously, I didn't take the screenshots, lol.  but hey, you wanted to know.

wow good eye, it's too round in the limbs and shoulders to be an atlas... but that head looks dome like...

[DFDelta]

This round body, and those ball-like shoulders... it's a Mackie!

Looks kind of like a short Akuma to me; there's a lot of artifacts around where the Akuma's "ears" would be.

Would make sense, as the Akuma shares a lot in common with Atlas, so it'd be easier to put in than a whole new mech.

Or maybe it's just a revised Atlas? 

Screenshot 11 looks like it has a new tank besides the hovercraft, Morrigu, and Ares; the raised things on the side make it look like a Bulldog (MW4 style)

Sorry guys, that IS an Osiris with dual ppcs. :/

Further note, that Bushy is a new variant. Its prolly gonna be similar to the C, but its definately new.

Also, thats an atlas, and yes Sphere, I thought the same thing, but its just too grainy to be sure.

Finally, that tank on the bridge could be new, but it is most likely the oro, which no one ever takes, so it might as well be new.

Why are there helicopter pads underground in #15? =P

Cause the mole people wanted helicopters.

That's an Atlas, but my guess would be it got some new destructible shoulder pads, kinda like the Uzi.
Too bad there's no charge damage, 'cause that would be the slow linebacker from hell!!

[^sPikE-]

wow this looks great.

Also note that Thunder Rift has a big frickin' hole in the ceiling, so it's not too far-fetched that helicopters/vtols could sneak in and out
