That CCP has unofficially agreed to start working on a new Mechwarrior MMOFPS/RPG. If this is true it is Epic news. I Loved the Mechwarrior games and if CCP were to work on something like this it could only lead to buckets of pure win.
Discuss thoughts....

I see nothing about it on the Smith and Tinker website. Though, CCP may be one of the better companies to partner with if they had the idea of a MechWarrior MMO in mind, since CCP seems comfortable with niche-genre MMOs, as I am sure any proper MechWarrior MMO would have to be. Personally I would love to see a MW warfare-simulator type of MMO, a'la WW2Online, doing MW in a RPG style would seem very, very wrong.

Glad you agree, the EVE UI isn't that bad after all.

.., that Chribba is actually a manifestation of veldspar and he mines just to release his brothers from their captivity inside the less pure rocks. This is also the reason why he refuses to commit the horrible act of "refining".

It's actually true. Their love child will be called "StarTrek Online"
But, yeah. These forums seriously need some indicator that the post has ended and the sig has started. EVE has devs that care about sound? (Ha ha ha! Gotcha. It actually doesn't!) |

Interestingly enough, that might actually make for a very popular game if done right. If done wrong however, it would spawn hate and disgust!

Holy IP infringement batman!
How much you wanna bet that CCP is gonna wait until a few days before the game is released before sending a cease and desist order ---------- There is always a choice. The choice might not be easy, nor simple, nor the options be what you desire - but, nevertheless, the choice is there to be made. |

Someone copying the EVE UI had me confused and stunned. But copying the forums? Speechless. Sign of the Apocalypse. However, the inverse of this, copying everything except the UI and forums could be interesting |

It looks interesting. But that being said, the rip-off is amazing.
From their dev:
"The thing is, there is only one proper way to display lots of data to users in a useful way, and those are: rows and columns. There is only one way to display blocks of text: in textboxes. The simplest buttons you can do are rectangles with text on them. Combine these in the easiest way you can, add some window-management and you get... Windows. Yes it's true, EVE didn't invent cascaded windows."
In other words, the game looks the way it does because that was the most efficient, and somehow, that makes it look exactly like EVE? High praise, but um, really?
Fitting, inventory management, and many parts of combat are all lifted. Time-based character advancement? Hell, even the guilds are called Corporations. (Really? Robots form corporations, and not like, collectives or so?) Is it the same? No. But it goes far beyond their assertion that it's similar in the same way Everquest and WoW are similar. Someone sat down and said "EVE with Robots" and went about doing exactly that.

If CCP develops a mechwarrior mmo it'll be a complete failure. Given CCP's inability to provide a decent UI & shortcuts for a 7yr old game in desperate need then I have little hope for them producing a successful mechwarrior game that, from my own experience, has had very flexible UIs with tons of shortcuts making it possible to target the nearest targets to scratching one's own ass with a single keystroke.

lol, from that forum, about the police towers:
Quote: Though in contrary to some weird game, they wouldn't get any insurance paid even if it will be implemented smile So it's up to the players whether it's worth it.
