I bet they make an April 1st "project cancelled' gag..well maybe not; someone could take it seriously and lives could be put in jeopardy.

I used to play Duke Nukem 3d so much at school and at lan parties. I played it a bit last week and it still pretty fun there's also a graphic mod that makes everything 3d instead of sprites.

I do not even know if I want the Mechwarrior reboot to come out, apparently they are trying to put DA tech into the timeline and make DA more mainstream, which I am soooooooo not ok with (you know that camera thing he shoots out in the video...DA tech) either way it will not be mechwarrior as we know it :'(

I just hope they do not Nerf MWR with DA crap I quit reading the books after reading the first DA release what a deep dark sucking sound eminated from that story line. If they go that route and do primarily console crap along with an I-phone app, I will just stay here and perhaps learn map making what I can dream up is far more interesting than any DA turdball.  ???

the camera drone is not DA tech.

we have those now, they're called UAVs.  Its just that BT's original creators kinda missed predicting a few pieces of tech the first time around so they are quietly being retconned in.  not a big deal.

I've NEVER heard about UAVs in Battletech anywhere, so I'm assuming it's S&T's own addition and not Dark Age bullshit.

That said, the Battletech universe comes to an inexplicable halt in 3067. What's this Dark Age you speak of? ::)

Look I know that is what it says...I thought the same thing, all I am saying is I am hearing some things about the game that worry me...and on the UAV thingy...I have it from a most reliable source that in the BTU that thing is indeed DA tech.
