All Mechwarriors prepare for drop!!!
Looks great! Hoping for: improved companion AI, haptics and solid feedback for the DualSense, and a good NG+ system.
those machine guns sound sooo chunky i love it
Long term mechwarrior player. Anxiously anticipating the game. The pilot commentary makes it seem like Star Fox 64 "Great shot!!!" Some obnoxious editing in this video. We wanted to see that physics collision with the centurion! (as a centurion would always rambo towards 5 mechs without engaging it's shield)
Looking Forward to seeing this.
honestly my only complaint is i miss the beam of lightning of PPCs usually are animated as. thats a very small gripe though, so im very much on board!
Oooh I'm hyped!
Any filter for all that flashing? Like the mechs in he lore have?
Did they have to pick footage during night missions tho? Can't see anything.
Previous trailer was all day time bruh
any chance of a pre launch on steam , so its ready on day 1 instead of purchase, then have to down load ?
