could we get a mech combat video?
« on: January 31, 2009, 10:55:10 PM »
I dont know if the developers are worried about ruining surprises, but I think I speak for all of us when I say a video showing a couple mechs going at it would be awesome. Would it be possible to get one in the advent calendar?

A video costs a lot more time than a screenshot. Time is valuable , better for the devs to invest the time in preparing the game for pub beta rather wasted in making a video.

Soon enough. I'm sure we'll see mech combat in a video before release. Even if we don't, release with no video is better than a video with no release.

Gents, I've been extremely tolerant as far as spam posts are concerned, but this is getting way out of hand. I can not allow every single topic getting completely derailed and filled up with spam posts, in particular not when the original post and majority of the discussion are completely reasonable and valid.

Also, don't just randomly embedd images in your posts unless they're hosted at dedicated image or file hosting services.

I hope I made myself clear.

Yah i would love to make some BT machinima once MW:LL comes out. Alway use the stories from my roleplayes in it. (of course I would have to use a different mod of the chatting scenes because I don't think normal people stand around and chat in BA lol)

Start getting used to Sandbox, it'll speed a lot of things up when the mod gets released.

Question......as much as everyone wants to play, is it not a nice filler for time until MWLL is released that the devs let us involve ourselves as much as they do?  I say if its not something they have time for.....dont worry and go ahead and take the time, hell I'll wait.
