@GLITCHIT1 The Mechwarrior Reboot (This trailer) got cancelled because after PSN got hacked no one wanted to make PS3 games for a while, and S&T wanted a multiplatform game. When they talked to Microsoft about making a Xbox 360 version, Microsoft wanted certain things in it before they would agree. So Piranha Games and Smith and Tinker practically said screw you to microsoft and dropped the idea of a multiplatform game to make Mechwarrior online.
@Ryvshin All true except the, no one wanted to make PS3 games when PSN got hacked. There is a good reason why PS3 has so many award winning exclusives, its not money because we all know it was Microsoft threw countless thousands in to the original, "Only on Xbox", bullcrap. Its the machine
I really like any game with a good mech in it, Armored Core is awesome, Chromehounds is awesome, but Mechwarrior has always been the best in my opinion. And I think its good to have a gaming PC and a console. I have both, I love them both. To bad to see that this probably won't get made, after I bought a Alienware laptop just so I could play old Mechwarrior games because of Mechassault, which also rocked. Maybe well get lucky though and they'll actually make it eventually.
More likely the argus used to be a medium weight, but then was turned into a heavy because of refits and improvements, otherwise the warhammer is effect but old, inittaly the atlas was the heavyiest mech in the universe (or not, that is if the inner sphere created new prototypes that may have been heavier witch is rare in a sense of history). the warhammer was more the heavy weight version of the uziel witch was medium weight but a deadly warhorse in my opinion.
It sucks ass that Mechwarrior is likely to suffer in a way that would give Duke Nukem PTSD. We may not see another MW game for nearly another decade, or at least until the companies who are fighting over the legal shit give up (AKA NEVER).
@LordIronHat Hmmm, you might be happy to hear then that Mechwarrior Online is in the works by Piranha Games using CryEngine3 and is slated to be released this year (2012).
@LordIronHat Actually no one listens to Harmony Gold's claims anymore. They've been trying to win that argument the moment Battletech got big.
The reason why they will never win is because when Battletech came around, the creators bought the rights from the PARENT company in JAPAN. Harmony Gold is just in charge of distribution in North America. its not their place to make claims. check out mwomercs . com for more info
@corymillerification screw consoles! the 360 robed us of chrome hounds then shut the game down! this will be for pc ONLY! buy a good gaming PC, and play only for free without servers being shut down like with chrome hounds.
@MsGunMetal You do realise that the only weapons a Elemental has it an SRM 2 and a small laser? Tat is not including the grapplng claw it has, but you are unable to use that in the game.
So what you said is for naught. The Atlas would flatten you with one shot.
@harkeill I used to put 3 medium lasers in MW3 and knock down a shadowcat. With the armor this Atlas has, I would have made it, which is somehow unusual. Try it out yourself, you'll see, that's no much sport.
Play the Classic Battletech game. You can pretty much build your own custom mech. You need Total Warfare and Techmanual to play along with the miniatures and the hex grid. other than the expensive startup cost, it's fun to play with friends with like minds.
@ReachManA239 The Clans will not be featured in the game for almost a year after it is released, since it will be set in 3049 and the Clans invade in 3050. Even then, it will be quite difficult to get an OmniMech, so you'd better learn how to pilot an Inner Sphere 'mech as well or even better than your Timber Wolf skills first.
@MsGunMetal In some ways, except Clan 'mechs are built on an Omni structure, hence the name OmniMech, which is a lighter allow and allows for much easier and much more configurations than Inner Sphere 'mechs.
@harkeill oh, yeah, that's right, more choice... always a nice thing. Also, the templar has omni tech and is an IS omnimech. The New Avalon institute of Science created a phenomenal 'Mech.
@MsGunMetal Yes, but the Templar was developed in the 3060s, 10 years after the Clans first invaded, so the Inner Sphere had a decade to learn all they could about Omni technology.
@harkeill Neg, a Black Knight takes down a Timber Wolf in a pinch. It has more pod space than both the Mad cat and the Awesome. Clan omnimechs are being outclassed by modern IS omni tech and that's a goddamn fact. Don't know if you played Mechwarrior 4 Mercenaries. Clan omnimechs are usually better than IS battlemechs, but Clan mechs are somewhat getting old.
@harkeill The same is true for the Hauptmann and the Executioner. Both are omnimechs, and the Hauptmann has more available mass, while both of them are 95T. Even a Catapult is more dangerous than a Hellbringer, an Argus is considered to be "an assault mech", while the Mad Dog overheats like a madman with its still poor firepower and armor. And an Owens runs like a sprinter compared to the slow Adder. I do not mean clan tech is inferior, I mean IS tech is constantly being underestimated
i love mechwarriors. i been playing it ever since it was only on windows 98 haha. fuck all the new games this is the shit. its also way better on computer i don't care how good the 360 is.
@countpuchi It's not necessarily becoming an MMO, as far as I"m understanding you still have to play in matches and skirmishes like the previous Mech Warriors but the outcome will affect your faction's outcome in territories and such. But you wont see like 1000 Mechs in one city going to vendors and buying dropship mounts.
Because what would you prefer, paying for a game once or playing a game for free and then being spammed with "OMG BUY OUR EXTRA PAY REAL MONEY FOR ITEMS OR ELSE YOU WILL SUCK AT THIS GAME".
@MaximilliusBonerhard i hav played free to play games before, I'm not stupid, I won't buy into your outrageous exaggeration of what actually happens. I have only played one or two free to play games that actually 'spam' messages about buying in game items using real money, and that was just an occasional pop up which was barely annoying at all. Free to play means that there is no SUBSCRIPTION, it doesn't mean that the game itself is free.
@MaximilliusBonerhard Dude, you have played very few and very shitty F2Ps as it seems than. I bet those you speak of were mostly RPGs where farming and selling gold is possible. BUT THIS IS NOT AN RPG. so no gold farming, also you are a dumbass and a real fool, cause there are many games which are free to play and does not need to pay a penny to be badass in it.
@MaximilliusBonerhard ...namely World of Tanks is an example. You can haul to the end game top-tier without any premium items and you won't be hindered a bit. However if you buy yourself a month of premium account, the only thing that changes is that for every battle you earn a bit more cash and exp, so you get to the top faster. But you get NO items that makes you better or worse at the current level of gameplay.
...people with premium accounts will get from tier 1 to 10 faster... but still they got to win and play good. They have access to all the equipment other people do, and how they use it is up to their skill. If you suck at driving your tank you won't win eventho you got premium. Oh same goes with Navy Field, same goes with soon to come Firefall. As you preach people about your bullshit I feel like I need to preach you. FREE TO PLAY does not mean PAY to WIN... Bonehead
@MaximilliusBonerhard Dude, first of all this game was close to being cancel (was in development hell) Second, if it looks ANYTHING like this, i will be happy. Graphics wise, it should because they are using the cryteck 3 engine, and going by what massively wrote on the game a few days ago, it definitely sounds better than the gameplay of that shitty mechassault series. Sure it could've used a single player element, but i'm just happy someone is doing a MW game.
@FlorsKenny Dude, the Mechassault series for Xbox was fucking phenominal, but you really had to play it back when it was first released to really appreciate the game. I spent countless hours playing it on Xbox Live with my buddies. I enjoyed it a lot better than I have Battlefield 3 or any other multiplayer game for Xbox 360. It was the type of game you could really relax while kicking ass at the same time.
@b00mYou I did play the MechAssault series when they were released. While I'll admit that they were good for the games they were, you had to play the old Mechwarrior games to see how shitty they compared.
@Zepheroff it was going to be kurita. However they changed so there's not gonna be any pve (at least they don't think so) I hope they do eventually. MWO sounds awesome. but I want a PVE campaign too.
Firstly, the Atlas would win the melee. The Atlas has hand actuators, the Warhammer does not- therefore the Atlas has a higher chance of landing punches.
Secondly, would this version of Mechwarrior include punches, kicks and club attacks. That would be AWESOME!
Thirdly, the Warhammer design actually came from Macross. Robotech is an American alteration/mash of the Macross anime and two other anime series. Harmony Gold, the legal owners of Robotech simply have better legal footing on the images
Or reflection, that Warhammer pilot should have backed out. The Warhammer doesn't have a whole lot of armor, it's supposed to fight from long range. It could never have hoped to take on that Atlas.
@jredbaron96 Back out, use buildings for cover as you go, then try to flank. Successful flanking means less damage, but you should be able to win without.
It's cool they brought back some of the original mechs, I recognized a Warhammer and was that an Atlus he was facing off with? But it looks like he made some poor tactical decisions, should have gotten into punch/kick range and engaged in physial combat.
@Jetman123 No melee would be even odds, the first to get two head hits with punches would win. It would be closer to 50-50 odds, which would be better than trying to gun down the Atlas at close weapons range. Because the Atlas has almost double the armor and significantly more close-range firepower.
Attention console gamers, do not be disappointed by the recent disclosure of Mechwarrior being a PC exlusive... there is a new mech game on the horizon, check Futurised Warfare dot com.
Soon the void left by Chrome Hounds/Mechwarrior Reboot will be filled.
the problems with Harmony Gold where over and done with months back and they said there was going to be little to no impact on the game or what mechs would be in it yes a few will be missing but its not like you would have seen ever mech from they time frame in the game anyway we will just get a different line up of mechs is all the game is still live and on track just for what ever reason they aren't saying much but that kind of thing is nothing new for the games industry
@JaiHindArbhav Actually, the Warhammer's design and a few other mechs were directly copied from Robotech by the original CBT designers. (Seriously, it's an exact similarity) That landed them in legal hot water. So the two companies came to an agreement, but apparently Harmony Gold has decided that it wants to be a dick about this and insist that video games weren't covered under the original agreement. Here's hoping they can settle. Again.
@Jetman123 Mechwarrior 5 has been canceled or delayed indefinitely from what I know, they've now moved onto making a MMO Mechwarrior game, set in the year 3059, or just a year before the Clans arrive.
The game is called Mechwarrior Online. They will be using Cryengine 3 (the engine used in Crysis 2).
I remember playing pirate moon with my dad. I played all mechwarriors up to this, Then they picked up halo. I hate halo. Im 16. How old was i when i was playing pirate moon guys? When did it come out. I remember the little skull on the snow <3 <3
My only complaint so far is I`d remake that ejection system. It should propel the pilot backwards or forwards or to the sides of the Mech, not straight up. As you can see, he`s floating right back donw into the explosion below him!
Anyway, I also hope the tactical, simualtion element will be in the game where you hae to use cover and use your brain to win, not just the biggest gun.
Use your brains, man. I mean HIGH and backwards or forwards or to the sides. But not straight up so you float straight back down into your own burning mech!
@seafireliv Well that's true, at least shoot the pilot off in an angle - other then that should it should at least propell ehr high enough to avoid the explosion.
I hope they bring back the "simulator" aspect of it.
Relying on your joystick and maneuverability to manage your powerful and slow weapons was the best! It created an attachment to your favorite mech. Mechwarrior 4 was great but it focused more on who had the better mech, not who was piloting it.
Love how he can destroy a building killing a mech, blow the Atlas's arm off and yet somehow the Atlas can't shoot through a couple feet of the parking lots concrete structure.
Yeah I at least hope that the player character remains silent. I always liked just chilling in the cockpit and answering in my mind or something. It would be so annoying and break immersion if you could hear "your guy" shouting all this stuff during gameplay. I'm the pilot, if I want to shout I will. :)
@AnotherSchmoe Yes, I completely agree. I loved mechwarrior 2 when it was just me and my sexy AI chick telling me "heat level critical." I don't want these male assholes spouting on about this or that with obnoxious B action movie clichés. Mechwarrior should be above and beyond that crap.
To make a reboot they should just make an updated mechwarrior 2.. They should keep the feel and look of the original but still update the graphics. For example give it the graphics of this game but streamline them to make the combat on barren worlds instead of increasing urban arenas. The classic missile noise from mechwarrior 2 should be kept and the badass laser noises from mechwarriror 3 should be added.
Magery is right, the project has not been canned. Pirnaha was just working on Duke Nukem Forever. Two weeks ago, they put up a job posting on craigslist for a Concept Artist Lead that lists intimate knowledge about Battletech as a key requirement for the position.
man if i was that mech pilot i would have hit the atlas in the stomach plate and backed off into cover not ran toward it plus if it goes critical he would die to so i would have high tailed out of there
@pixelape99 how do you work that out? what you expecting the mechs to be pretty? they are machines of war you know why do you think that atlus is ugly and intimidating
Warhammer vs Atlas. 3018 is more than 30 years before the Clans appreared in-universe, so having a Loki stomp around the FedSuns-Combine border would be a bit out of place.
AND my neighbors dad used to work for Microsoft but he got fired and before he left he copied the programming code for MW5 and ive played it 4 times now :D im soooo lucky
@Johnyknowhow pfft! your atlus is weak! give me a raven with narc + a catapult 2 miles away and il have him or even without the narc with inferno LRM 10's
@omglollmao123 Yeah, I've been trying to find a copy of that sound clip, the best I could get was a recording of it taken in game play, and I can't download it because I don't have quick time pro. So close, yet so far, lol.

Because the Atlas has almost double the armor and significantly more close-range firepower.

Attention console gamers, do not be disappointed by the recent disclosure of Mechwarrior being a PC exlusive... there is a new mech game on the horizon, check Futurised Warfare dot com.
Soon the void left by Chrome Hounds/Mechwarrior Reboot will be filled.

@JaiHindArbhav
the problems with Harmony Gold where over and done with months back and they said there was going to be little to no impact on the game or what mechs would be in it yes a few will be missing but its not like you would have seen ever mech from they time frame in the game anyway we will just get a different line up of mechs is all the game is still live and on track just for what ever reason they aren't saying much but that kind of thing is nothing new for the games industry
pandathaway 3 months ago
@JaiHindArbhav Actually, the Warhammer's design and a few other mechs were directly copied from Robotech by the original CBT designers. (Seriously, it's an exact similarity) That landed them in legal hot water. So the two companies came to an agreement, but apparently Harmony Gold has decided that it wants to be a dick about this and insist that video games weren't covered under the original agreement. Here's hoping they can settle. Again.

@Jetman123 Mechwarrior 5 has been canceled or delayed indefinitely from what I know, they've now moved onto making a MMO Mechwarrior game, set in the year 3059, or just a year before the Clans arrive.
The game is called Mechwarrior Online. They will be using Cryengine 3 (the engine used in Crysis 2).

My only complaint so far is I`d remake that ejection system. It should propel the pilot backwards or forwards or to the sides of the Mech, not straight up. As you can see, he`s floating right back donw into the explosion below him!
Anyway, I also hope the tactical, simualtion element will be in the game where you hae to use cover and use your brain to win, not just the biggest gun.

@madcat789
Use your brains, man. I mean HIGH and backwards or forwards or to the sides. But not straight up so you float straight back down into your own burning mech!
seafireliv 4 months ago
@seafireliv Well that's true, at least shoot the pilot off in an angle - other then that should it should at least propell ehr high enough to avoid the explosion.
madcat789 4 months ago
I hope they bring back the "simulator" aspect of it.
Relying on your joystick and maneuverability to manage your powerful and slow weapons was the best! It created an attachment to your favorite mech. Mechwarrior 4 was great but it focused more on who had the better mech, not who was piloting it.

Yeah I at least hope that the player character remains silent. I always liked just chilling in the cockpit and answering in my mind or something. It would be so annoying and break immersion if you could hear "your guy" shouting all this stuff during gameplay. I'm the pilot, if I want to shout I will. :)

To make a reboot they should just make an updated mechwarrior 2.. They should keep the feel and look of the original but still update the graphics. For example give it the graphics of this game but streamline them to make the combat on barren worlds instead of increasing urban arenas. The classic missile noise from mechwarrior 2 should be kept and the badass laser noises from mechwarriror 3 should be added.

Magery is right, the project has not been canned. Pirnaha was just working on Duke Nukem Forever. Two weeks ago, they put up a job posting on craigslist for a Concept Artist Lead that lists intimate knowledge about Battletech as a key requirement for the position.
