MechWarrior Online from Piranha Games Officially Announced!
« on: October 31, 2011, 07:40:18 PM »

I don't have the highest expectatations of this, but just in case I got over to their website and locked in my callsign:  I shall be known on that MWO as Scorpion.  I hope it is good, but we shall see.  We shall see.

Anyway, their registration is free and locks in the callsign (name) you want to go by.  So, if you have anything you really, really want to have, get there now and sign up.

It sounds like the game will essentially be World of Tanks, but with 'mechs.

Dragon Cat on CBT


Really, as long as there is an unbroken line of people calling themselves "Clan Nova Cat," it doesn't really matter to me if they're still using Iron Wombs or not. They may be dead as a faction, but as a people they still exist. It's not uncommon in the real world, after all.

Kind of dissappointed as I am not a fan of online gaming.  I like to come home after a hard day, strap on 5 CLPPL with a TC and Munchkin my rage away.  Not interested in a challenge, just want to put faces from the day to the Mechs and blast away.  Not sure that attitude is really welcome in online gaming.

You know there is something wrong with the FWL, when Word's spell check changes Impavido to Impetigo and Zechetinu to Secretion.

 I think I can say with certainty they're not gonna care what your motivation is as long as you shoot things up
 I for one can't wait to try out the mech creation!!

While I'm adoring the new look from the promo, I am not a fan of online or pc gaming.  But, as Recusant has stated, best to wait for more information before making any opinions.
