Second Life Battle Tech

Opening soon will be a new sim for all mecha lovers in SL, called BattleTech 3120. BattleTech 3120 is a roleplay sim (RP) based on the famous BattleTech comic series created in 1984 that focused on giant semi-humanoid robots fighting each other in a field of combat. The sim will include some of the more famous aspects of BattleTech, such as the Clans and Houses, that will battle each other for the role of leader of the universe. The background of BattleTech's fictional history covers the approximately 1150 years from the end of the 20th century to the middle of the 32nd. There is primarily no other known forms of life in the BattleTech series, other than humans. The humans within the series created a world where its based on a feudal system, i.e. Clans, and has similar aspects of other science fiction series, such as Frank Hubert's Dune or Joss Whedon's Firefly (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BattleTech).


Mecha lovers traditionally in SL, have had little places to go for a good roleplay experience. This sim was created to relieve some of that missing element in SL for them by sim owner Xxander Snook. For additional information, please contact Xxander Snook.

how soon is "opening soon"? i dont know how long ago this video was posted but i just did a search in SL without results...

The sim was open for a short time, but due to funding issues it was closed. I still have all the scripts, Models and everything if anyone out there has a sim they wish to set up them in. It's a very fun game actually. I also plan to package the entire thing up and sell it as a all -in-one battle system. IM Xxander Snook if you are curious.

Mech Assault was a bastard game of the BattleTech universe and was sucky as all hell. They got a ton of stuff wrong in it.

Yes, for example you never run out of ammo, you don't lose criticals (it was that way in MW4, too), you simply move the control stick in one direction and you're going full speed, you can't figure out what the hell is going on in SP.

It's too grab and go. There's no customization whatsoever. The game was turned from mech "sim" to vehicle-based third person shooter.
