 PLEASE tell me theirs a Madcat in this game
No Clan technology means no Madcat, since it is a Clan Heavy.
but that means that there might be the Awesome and the Mauler, so it's all cool.
and also the Warhammer.
apparently the Unseen mechs (of which the Warhammer is one) are back too, some issue with the copyrights got resolved for this game.

I have a question for you MW experts out there - my first encounter was MW2, in which many mechs changed their names. For example, the Mad Cat was known as the Timber Wolf, the Thor was previously called the Summoner - am I getting something confused?
Regardless, I have just watched the videos and am currently salivating like a dog for MW4, mech names be damned.

the names you see in MW4 are the nicknames gave by INS to the Clan Mechs. So the Timber Wolf is known as Mad Cat in Inner Sphere, same goes to the Summoner, which was named "Thor" by them Spheroids.

Going on the names, the Mad Cat was actually called that because it resembled a cross between the Marauder (MAD-3R), my favorite mech, and the Catapult.

This thread has brought back so many good memories of playing MW2. I just loved customizing the mechs with all sorts of creative and wacky designs. When did they remove that option, 3 or 4?

Just created a Hamachi channel called "EVE Mechwarriors" and a corresponding in-game channel for coordination.
I am down to use the mektek patches or PR1, if we decide to use the mektek patches we can play online although they do add in a few weapons that a lot of people hate (I do not care, I just want to play).
I am down for some inner sphere VS. clan matches and any sort of themed/unthemed throwdowns. I imagine we can get some awesome fights if enough people join the channel.

PR1 is ok, and mektek's updates started off ok now there just poor.
They changed the league I used to play in and now its a shadow of what it used to be.

Daishi/Timber Wolf = Clantech = not showing on the game.
remember, Inner Sphere tech only. it's the 3rd succession war, before the clan invasions.

When the Clans invaded the Inner Sphere, there were no communication between the two forces, none what so ever.. they just attacked.
the INS-mech's computers, which in normal fights would tell its pilot what the enemy mech was loaded out with (based outward appearance, weight, and witnessed attacks so far) ... they had quite a few problems with the Clan Mechs, obviously. since they'd never seen anything even remotely like them.
so the INS Mechwarriors had to basically turn off that part of the computer and just tell them to tag different mechs, and then the pilots gave them names.
the Summoner became Thor, because it used lightning(PPC) and thunder(AutoCannon) as its main forms of attack.
and so both sides had their own names of the mechs.
if you want to know more, read the Blood of Kerensky trilogy ;)

I played the original Mechwarrior games and the Mech Commander series a lot. Lets hope they don't screw this up and dumb it down too much for console. But I fear there will be no support for flight sticks
On another note; when will CCP implement Mech combat on planets?

I saw a video for this on Gametrailers, earlier today.
If it is actually an in-****pit, custom weapon groupings, ammo and alpha strikes and death from f***ing above attacks, then I'm going to need a medical team to restart my heart, followed by the purchase of some pwn level hardware.

Wicked!
Been so long since my old PC ran Mechwarrior. If it goes over well, I do hope they include more of the great houses in an expansion or three. (House Steiner!)
Shame they aren't focusing a tad more on 'recent' Battletech times, with the whole Word of Blake uprisings and new mech designs.

Only for MW4! Good luck trying that 5!
Also, have we heard anything for other platforms or just PC? I keep hearing about a 360 release.

PC and Xbox360, I just hope they develop it for PC first and then adapt the control for console rather than the other way around.

Hell yes my corp can have some Mech Warrior action on the 360 then rather than PC!
Well, DMC4 had an excellent PC port, so hopefully this one won't be bad, but I see your meaning.

I was so excited when I saw the videos here that I almost ****ed in my pants and had tears of joy to my eyes. I'm 31 years old, and I've been a fan of Mechwarrior and Battletech since Mechwarrior 2. I've been waiting for a reboot of this game since Mechwarrior 4 (which was last updated in 2002). Finally my dream has come true.

CCP needs to license the MechWarrior MMO. EVE's customization would be awesome for a MechWarrior MMO - hi/med/low slots, IS/Clan components, power grid/cap, armor/structure, heat, salvage... it's all there. Just needs a new MechWarrior interface and art work.

but the way each thing works in both games are different though. And while customization is nice, I would rather they stick close to how things are in the story, there's a reason why clan mechs are more versatile, as most IS mechs are limited in customization.

perfect example of it:
Thanatos vs Summoner (Thor)
and
Atlas vs Dire Wolf (Daishi)

UPDATE!!!:
they will only release MW4:mercs, and a few mechpacks at first. they are having problem with the copyprotection of veng and black knight.
the free release will have a auto update function so when they crack the problem it will be able to update itself with veng and black knight.
