Ahhhhhh, yeah. It's been ages since i played this, but every time i play the game i'm hooked for about 3 long months. But this time around, there seems to be a problem with game versions on multiplayer.
ANYWAY, i just love the game. One of the best i've bought ever, and i absolutely adore the great ease of customization with the mechs in-game, compared to the horrifying things i saw on a mech 3 demo just now. It's one of the things that makes the game for me. Packing a mech with Lasers and giving it a run, failing badly, going back and fitting rotary cannons the next time and winning easily is part of the magic of finding that perfect configuration. Plus the combat actually feels rough and boisterous, especially in Assault class matches, where that big crawling cube packing multiple autocannons is giving you greif of great magnitude, as each salvo gives your mech a sharp slap - throwing your aim off by a mile.
anyone else share this kind of enthusiasm for the game?

Yea when your tactics work out.
What?
I like action every now and then you know, the quick bit of excitment, but slower pace strategy is often more satisying.

I like both, depends what mood I'm in.

BAGGAR is me...

oh well, i suppose some people just prefer slow action to fast action...
nit in THAT way.
nit in THAT way.
I loved it like my baby.
Slower paced, custom stuff all there.....action, strategy....I'm not totally sure why I loved it but it rocked.
MC2 was bootiful, and I was the only person ever to buy it. Great fun, bit too easy in comparison and not quite as magical, but definitly a great game. Customisation was genius.

I didn't like Mech Commander myself. the customization was still there, but it just didn't show it's true entity in-game. 'twas only the demo, mind.
Not Mechwarrior, but I ADORED the Mechcommander series.
Genius.
