I hope it has planetary conquest like MPBT:EGA had. The only change I'd like to see is if there are enemy players, you drop against them. If not, you battle the AI. Hope it doesn't get dumbed down for the WoW kiddies. We'll see I guess.

FPS? srs? who hired these people? arcade sims are fps?

Technically it is an FPS. Its first person, and you are shooting.

I can't wait for this game to come out. I played a LOT of MW4 playing in two different clans. Was a ton of fun, and I cannot wait for this one.

Well if you want to nitpick, isn't it really more like second-person?

I mean, you're sitting in a cockpit, looking at the mech controls/etc, and the MECH is the one doing the actual shooting.

Well the IGN video says it's slated for a Summer release. I'm hoping for a late June launch or something, but realistically maybe more like August? (or later depending on their delays)

I reserved like 3-5 names the moment I heard of MWO so I'm pretty excited for the launch. Though I'm not sure if I'll play all that much if it comes out at the same time/after GW2

I misunderstood it at first and thought the game was going to be monthly subscription based, but thankfully it's just a "premium" account deal. Not entirely sure I'll do the pre-purchase, maybe if more info/footage comes out on the game.

Also make sure you guys update your beta profiles with system specs and you might chance upon one of the closed beta invites. I wish I knew to update them before today

thankfully? pay2win sucks ferociously. anything other than paying a 1-time price for the purchase of a game is a huge scam.

Yeah pay to win does suck, but I don't see how this is pay to win? From what I see, cash items = cosmetic, which is something that's in basically every MMO I can think of. The "premium" accounts as far as I can see is just faster leveling and faster game currency which is the only advantage I can really see (faster purchasing of weps + mechs).

so basically they completely ripped off WoT and are putting mechs into the game.

hey its cool, I love mechs. I like the pricing model for WOT, haven't had a premium account in a few months (no time to play!) and I'm still making progress. If its the same way here then that'd be awesome.

yeah I'm not arguing, I'm just sayin' lol

srsly I wish I started WoT before I started playing SW:TOR. Could've saved me 80 bucks!

yea i remember seeing an interview where they said they specifically avoided any 'pay to' scheme that made it unfair to users that didn't pay for anything.
