I think a single picture can answer this question.

Zom, you were firing at me! Can't tell what variant I was using though.
I had a dream, a dream of a white Victor. It strode over the tundra like a god of old. And then it spoke...and I freaked out.

Haha! I was amazed with the scene so I had to stop and take a picture.  I actually had no idea that I was completely surrounded by enemies - let alone the mech walking right over me.

3 ways to kill BA/Elementals.
1: LBX's seem to work well.
2: MGS/Flamers work better
3: Step on / run over them  (i got flatten by a demolisher , from behind..as i was tormenting a Madcat) 
2 IS Commanders having a chat.

IS Commander 1 : What Clan Mech weigh's 200 ton , with the top speed of a snail and has 70 tons of weapons & armor ...?
IS Commander 2 : No idea .....but i propose we nuke the SOB from space & move on to the next planet.

It's cool as heck.  Only played on 2 maps - the Egyptian one's a bit boring, but the forest one is awesome.  Using a tank is a lot of fun, and the ability to repair and rearm is fab.

Rendering a 45 min unedited video at the mo.  When they're up on YouTube will post up the link.

Big thumbs up for me.

The different weather is awesome too... didn't expect that. Nice work! Made the map really different.... epic fog :D

Loved the desert one (each to their own i guess) and hated the space one... it simply gets too dark ... I know there's low light amplification... but dunno, something about that map got under my skirt. Probably because it seems to be jump jetting BA heaven. I'll give it another shot...

Treestumps and logs... Oh how I hate them... bouncing around in a tank can be somewhat annoying with those around... I'd reccomend making them cause a little less bounce... I mean a massive (heavy) tank... should kinda bust its way thru a bit of wood? ;) Just made fighting frustrating more then anything.

Anyway two thumbs up, very impressive for a beta... even with the 'beta moments' from time to time like:

I am flying around in some sort of jet... taking out rocket tower things... and i say stuff it to the last one... and i kamikaze it.. it explodes... my plane doesn't... hits a building and flys off as tho nothing has happened... meanwhile i start mucking around pressing random buttons... and accidently eject over a lake... watch my jet fly slowly away into the lake whereupon it doesn't explode but comes to a rest... i fall into the lake... swim over... hop into the jet... and it explodes. :(

When it's working It's everything I expected and then some. I look forward to bug fixes more than additional content tbh. The devs did an absolutely great job.

Epic , been playing on my laptop seeing as for the life of me i cant get crsis 1.21 to work with win 7.
For me the sounds are a bit messed up and I have crashes almost 20-30 mins apart.
Though from what I do play its amazing.

"note to self: don't do a barrel roll in a demolisher"
'any kind of discussion of randomness ALWAYS WILL EQUATE to being able to critically hit a mech's reactor by firing a micro beam laser while facing 80 degrees to the side, shooting the ground, which would cause a random explosion which would randomly crit his entire team's reactors which would randomly cause the server itself to explode which would randomly generate a strange quark which would randomly hit the earth and randomly randomness randomfapp the shit fapp random!'

I think it feels even better then the MW game series. Seriously. I notice that I play very differently from the MW games. The HUD and radar is pretty cool (stars represent mechs) and I enjoy placing my mech to best face an enemy... meaning rushing into combat or retreating when the enemy prescence is to great.  Hit and run tactics are very possible. 

The game just FEELS exactly how I wanted mechwarrior to be.  The rolling of the cockpit at you storm forward, the nimble speed of a shadowcat jumpjetting over lava flows and rock outcrops while evading enemy mech pursuit, the sheer orgasmic pleasure of ripping machine guns/AC rounds into the torso of an enemy mech...

BATTLE ARMOR! YES! It is so much fun punching out of your dying mech and continuing the fight on foot. Leap frogging around firing your SRMs, harassing bigger mechs and moving on the bounce.  I found being a bushwacker armed with machine guns and LBX definitely helped in shooting those buggers.

The effects of lasers, missles, PPCs, impacts... It is just amazing. I have played some very fine MODs, but this... this is a professional achievement. For beta, it is only going to get better.  I can tell they are going to rake in some impressive praise in the coming months.

Complaints? Some. Sound is the known issue. Latency with 50 ping, I still see mechs displacing back and fourth... Aerospace craft are very difficult, flying with a mouse I never really got any kills. I'll need to dig out my joystick.

Overall, dig out your copy of crysis and be prepared for WAR!

Well what little bit I just played, This game is frickin AWESOME - I just need to figure out the joystick now. I think Crysis is a good choice for the mod too because I remember using the tanks in game and thinking this would be great for a mech sim.
