Okay time to play! I saw the Sins thread and so I guess it is "game on" time. Join the ingame channel "Mechs Rule" and lets get going! I personally feel the MekTek patches add a lot to the game but they are not a necessity and we can play with just the PR patches from Micro$oft if you all prefer.
I really hope there is enough interest to justify this, as this game is pretty radical and I am sure everyone who has ever played it remembers it fondly...
We will of course be playing on Hamachi.

We can set up a ladder league if we get enough people! Convince your corp to pirate it and start a team, maybe we can work out a tournament or something.
I wanna see Goonswarm Atlas VS. BOB Shadowcat MK. II!
United Legion Nova Cat VS. IAC Ryuoken!

Yeah but I do not want to play with a bunch of professionals, I want to play against a bunch of other people who just reinstalled last week and are novice at best and who ALSO have EVE in common with me.
What is your beef with MekTek?

You guys might be interested in this.
Mech 4 came up on topic a couple of months ago elsewhere, seems these fellas on on the case
I hope that turns out good but that "total conversion" is sounding more ambitious than some feature releases so I doubt it ever gets anywhere.
And Mechwarrior lol FOX'd.

MW4:Mercs. Ahh, a worthy (albeit more arcadey) sucessor to MW2:Mercs. IMHO, MW2:Mercs = epitome of perfected mech combat.
As bad as MW4 graphics are, MW2 make me nauseous.
EDIT: And I am on vent right now with a friend and we wanna play, anyone wanna join in for a 2v2 or an FFA or something?

think I played 1 many years ago .. looking at screen shots 4 does not look any different what am I missing?
The configurations system basically, MechWarrior 3 was the last to use the flexible configuration options, 4 uses dedicated slots for specific systems, making it harder to mix-and-match the configs on the mechs, taking away a lot of the flexibility and variation you could get out of the different mechs.
The MekTek patches bring back omni-points. And personally I like the mechs being unique, if every mech is exactly the same, just with different tonnage and a new model that would be pretty boring.
I like having laser mechs, missile mechs, gun mechs, fast mechs, slow mechs, omni mechs, etc. Not every mech is a Chimera.

You can still do that with MW4 stock! You ought to re-install and have a go at it with me, I fitted a Black Knight with dual Clan Ultra AC20 and a medium x-pulse laser. Then I re-fit with a full x-pulse/ppc loadout. Then I tried pumping up the engine speed, fitting jump jets, and loading up a bunch of clan machineguns and CSRMs for fast and close strafe brawling...
There is a TON of variety inherent to each mech, and if you do not believe me go ahead and install and play a bit!

Pity, with all that power in mechs they could make an EVEN MORE badass tank with the same technology.
