Anyone here play MechWarrior Online?

It's still in what I would call "effective beta" although they seem to think it's a finished game...

At this point there are only 2 game modes....random 12v12 on a random map or "community warfare" where you attack or defend planets...still 12v12 but everyone can rejoin the fight after dying with up to 3 more mechs...they gussy-up scenarios but every one is basically kill more than you lose...

With all of that being said, I'm sort of a Battlemech nerd...so it's in my wheelhouse....I've only been playing a few days, but managed to fall in with a pretty decent Unit...I went old-skool and full Steiner allegiance...


Anyway, if anyone else is playing, regardless, I'll go friends list with them. hit me up.

I have never played but now that I think about it a WH40k videogame featuring just titans would be epic. :drool:

Well, like I said, they seem to think it's out of beta...even have a 1-year anniversary sale going on right now...but, while they have a TON of mech options and loadout options for each mech...that part of it is pretty polished....they still only have 2 game modes, which are basically the same just with different rewards. Either way it's 12v12 pvp...just one is strict 12v12 win or lose and you gain C-bills and potentially stats...and the other is 12v12 but you can reinforce yourself with up to 3 more mechs and you defend or capture an enemy planet for faction gain.

I played MWO when it first entered beta, but lost interest when features kept getting pushed back while monetized mechs kept getting added. I think it's been officially released for a year now but I haven't been hearing good things.
