    "MechWarrior Online is an upcoming free to play"

    Lost interest. Way to ruin a great franchise.

    I signed up the moment i heard about it way back when, then i slooooowly started to notice through watching videos of gameplay, it looks JUST LIKE world of tanks, except with Mechs. My expectations are low.

    FTP is often retarded because they often end up implementing some kind of "pay to win" system.

    I'd prefer to pay £100 for a game than have it F2P.

    I'd prefer a blowjob from Megan Fox than have it F2P.
    Is that bad?

    In reality WoT isn't exactly awful, it can be fun when you have a group of friends to play with, the pubs however are awful and I can understand why you would hate it.


    The F2P thing is kinda shady, look at Hi-rez; They were intentionally releasing game breaking weapons in T:A to encourage their purchase and would end up nerfing them only after they made enough profit. I really hope that doesn't end up being the case with Planetside 2 and Mechwarrior.

    *cough* plasma gun *cough* jackal *cough*

    WoT kinda did the same thing but on a massive scale, the T59 premium tank. $32 in USD, and you had credit printer. oh yeah, it gets thrown into low tier matches where nobody can penetrate your front armor. I could go on into a rant about it, I also own one, and love it.

    As much as I enjoy the Inner Sphere mechs, I'd much rather play some sweet Clan mechs like the Adder purely to beat up on larger mechs while zipping about in a small chassis.

    When are they going to add the aquasceptor? It is literally the best mech.

    Gotta ask, but did anyone else who signed up get into the beta as well? If so how is it so far?

    The idiots mislabled Mercenaries. Mercenaries was Mechwarrior 2 expansion, not Mechwarrior 4 (idiots).

    I just got an invite yesterday, it is a pretty OK game. Only really annoying part of the game is when you barely collide with another mech and fall....
    takes forever to get up. Also not a whole lot of mechs at the moment, which makes me sad.

    Love the light mech tho...

    yea...like fixing spawn positions in the beginning of the match. Tired of falling from the sky and dying when the round begins...
