Sadly, it's still Piranha Games, but still O M G.

Here's the pre-alpha footage.

Looks like MWO graphics cleaned up a tad, which is fine. The action part of MWO I find quite good.

It's the campaign they build around it that will be the deciding factor. Give me a sandbox (say like M&B WB) to play in with mechs and I'll be a happy fanboy.

Honestly, since it's PGI, I am absolutely convinced they will mess it up. Then again, even a shitty MechWarrior 5 could be great. It has been 16 years.

Yeah, pretty much my exact take on it.  Going to hold off getting optimistic until I know if the game is going to be fun without the inevitable unannounced $150 DLC.

It will be an open-world, open-ended Mercenary campaign, just as the trailer implies.

However, there will only be 4 planet types (water, ice planet, molten planet, stone planet) with day/ night maps with 3-5 mission control points for an advertised "20 maps!"

There will be 4 mission types. Scout, Patrol, Recover, and Ambush. These will all use one of the 3-5 spawn points as their main objective

Repeat ad-nauseum with a "story mission" inserted every other player level for a total of 10-15 story missions.

The past cannot be changed. The future is yet within your power.

I think you are giving them too much credit.

Sooooo ... this is out.  Any takers?

I would like to thank Vladimir Putin for ensuring that every member of the NPR news staff has had to say "Pussy Riot" on the air multiple times.
