I hope we'll get a console port as well, my computer won't be able to play this but a PS3 version would rule.

[kakamize]

It 's coming to the Xbox360 and PC.

Not for PS3 from what i read.

[GlooVey]

This looks badass like back in the day it was badass!

[Yomommalinkmugen]

wow i thought microsoft sold the copyright to smith and tinker after FASA bombed but i guess not. Well this means no mechwarrior on ps3. Honestly though i hope it's not on any console. It should stay true to it's roots and be a PC only game

Ok, but my questions still stands; Why make a trailer that shows you what the gameplay won't be like?

Nobody buys games for the cutscenes, so why feature them so heavily in the trailer? People buy games for the gameplay, so why not concentrate on showing what it's actually like?

In fact, I happen to think that cutscenes are heavily over-used in today's games. They take the player out of the game and break the illusion. Not to mention that 75% of them are just useless eye-candy.

It´s a TRAILER, not actual game footage. It combines real gameplay with cutscenes to make it more interesting...it´s pretty obvious.

[lurkerrekrul]

Are you sure? I don't have a state of the art system anymore, so I haven't played many recent games, but even in older ones I noticed a disturbing trend to insert cutscenes into the middle of the action. Elite Force II had cutscenes in the middle of the boss battle with the super borg.

Besides, what's the logic in making a trailer that shows what the gameplay WON'T be like? It's like "See this really cool stuff? You won't be seeing any of that in the actual game." Yeah, that makes sense...

[Jetman123]

It's a trailer. It's supposed to be cinematic. In the actual game it won't be like that.

[lurkerrekrul]

The graphics look great, but how the hell are you expected to play this when there's a damn cutscene every 10 seconds? I mean, practically every shot you fire, or every hit the enemy takes, switches to a cutscene. If I wanted "cinematic" views of the action, I'd watch some anime.

What idiot came up with the idea of inserting cut scenes into the middle of a firefight?

@dercker

Yeah. There's a great interwiew at IGN for this. They're going to make this more reAlistic. You'll have various tools and be able to use the light scout mechs to be able to locate enemy mechs.

[mager56723]

@ joeAuriun

well, some people get really attached to their mechs.

[Dekker3D]

okay.. as far as i can tell (from wikipedia and google), this game is being designed by the same guy who made MW, MW2 and MW3. gods, seeing how good MW3 was, i hope this one makes it. and i definitely hope they'll use the good things that microsoft threw away, like the repair vehicles and continuous pulse lasers.

[toggsuk]

Err yeah okay lol....

[JoeAuriun]

If this is the best they had to show I'm not all too excited. The visual was much better than the audio especially, I don't remeber any voice dubs for the original. This one it just shit, "We're getting wasted" and yet he's the only one out? The hell is this? lol.

I'm waiting until it's released to look at reviews, so far if this is the BEST they had to show I'm disappointed.
