So, anyone know when I'll get to DL MW1-4 for free from mektek? Their site is confusing.

Though if those really are in game graphics (so says the bottom right of the video) I'm bummed since I'll most definitely have to upgrade EXTENSIVELY to get the most out of one of my favorite franchises

Control is my biggest worry, as the 360 controller just doesn't have enough buttons to pull of a proper mech setup

Makes me glad that I didn't sell my HOTAS.

and at point blank, how much mobility you expecting out of two 75+ ton mechs? (Atlas is 100 ton beast if i recall)

lonedawg · 07-11-2009, 08:57 PM

You two probably didn't realize some of the smaller things going on like:

1. The overheating of the lasers (You can see the barrels going red hot)
2. The guy using the building as cover when he was cooling his weapons
etc.

The mech he was up against is an assault mech, it is more amoured then his and can take a beating, he couldn't simply stand in front of it and win, have to use cover and move around, know when to use your weapons/what to target and when to let them cool off.

simplistic FPS players tend to not think of these things
