This would be fantastic if I could actually find a guy willing to work with me with it. As it stands, every time I've tried to tag targets, I've just ended up having to pull out the AC2 and deal with them myself.
are you able to fire the TAG laser then fire the missiles or will that cause them to ram into the ground or just plain not lock on? also is there the possibility to have the missiles fly just above the ground instead of an arc or straight to?
I believe a wars version is in the works, they had it for crysis first because thats what it started on, but i read something saying they would eventually adapt it for wars as well.
You lot of morons!... you have handily undercut the entire basis of the mechwarrior Battlefield... The whole reason Battlemechs are able to be fielded is because they lack effective targeting systems... A mech is nothing but a massive target to a damn cruise missile! Durrr God! way to raise my hopes and crush them expertly... couldn't you losers have chosen an other franchise to murder?
Well no you do. Imagine somehow that you are now the CEO of a huge business fanchise and you just suddenly decide to rewrite your whole image overnight... you change the Brandname from "Coke" to "Poojuice" now watch sales slump... but you wont have any problems because the modern consumer is just a zombie addicted to flashing lights.
nice...i want this mod, but of course i need crysis 1st, but then i need a better rig b4 that, but then i need more money b4 i can do that, ugh!! its a vicious circle...
Nope. Nobody was ever on when I tried playing it when I was young. I recently played a little Mechwarrior 2: 31st Century Combat online, but that's about it.
TAG (and that stupid stupid arty beacon in MW4) sucked in previous MWs cause they got the mechanics all wrong to be able to do anything useful with them. Narcs were okay-ish in MW3 but the TAG still was crap. If they make it useful (as it seems to be very much so in this vid) it will be awesome.
If it is, walking onto a battlefield without armor or a mech will be frightening indeed. Even the lightest weapon on a battlearmor suit can kill a squad of infantryman.
Despite my reasons in the post I removed to post this I changed my mind. I read a bit more about the game and it seems like you don't start near a hangar and you actually have to capture one.
If that's the case, then even though every time I watch an elemental climb out of an ASF cockpit or bail and JJ away from a dieing mech I am going to die a little inside, its probably for the best.
Will there be artillery such as the long tom, thumper, or sniper artillery pieces for use or will they at least be used against you if there is a campaign?
Will there be hoverbikes? I think that having the military grade hoverbikes that thy use in the books would be cool as well. They would add a bit of strategy since they can move fast and mount either a medium or large laser that could be very effective for use in hit and runs.
That was lag on player's end, not an effect of the LRM's. With developers spread all over the world, we do get a little geographical lag once in a while.
interesting stuff, but i still think when they release the game (prob in 2010 at the rate its going) i would disable the battlearmour/elementals as ive always been more interested in mech on mech action. Again tho we see another video released where they dont show the mechs walking. Ever since they released the puma video with the poor animation on the legs they stated they dont have a good animator on their team, i fear they still may not have fixed that.
Awesome.... too awesome.... why isn't a beta already available for the fearless gamers to try? Well... i know rushing things is not good, but for crying out loud... this is too good to only be tested be developers XD
DAMN i use to mount TAGs on my elementals and have clan arrow IV tanks launching their 5 batteries of arrow IV missles. Was a instint DEAD mech. Man did they cry about my clan TANKS lol
I know this video is old but... just wow... they couldn't google for the steam fix? :P

I love how the elemental moves. In all the games it just looked like a tiny potbellied mech; in this it looks like an actual soldier in a suit.

and not destroying mechwarrior much like mech assault did.
you actually took it to the level I saw in the books and mechwarrior 4 didn't quite reach.
