Wasn't the whole Omnimech thing a big deal even though it only applies to people following strict rules in like a campaign because everyone would just be using custom robots anyways with unlimited parts and shit
i mean weren't most other games on their second revision by that point

I don't even gt what omnimech was supposed to be
It sounds like back porting videogame mechlab into the RPG because none of it is hugely relevant
most of these responses are just like "just don't do it"
like they don't even want to acknowledge it

Having only just discovered MWO a few days ago, I can now safely say it is my most anticipated game in a *very* long time. The MechWarrior series captured my imagination when I was a kid, and has always been a fond memory. I enjoyed playing MW3, but frankly, was so dismayed at the *** backward, dumbed down, childish version of the MechLab in MechWarrior 4, I didn't play it.
<rant>
Colour coding the possible "hardpoints" on my mech? Am I f*cking five years old? Removing all kinds of Mech Customisation to make it more suitable to the moronic early console generation masses to try and make "A successful product". Mechwarrior 4 was, for a lot of old-time fans, the last nail in the coffin for the digital version of the BattleTech universe, thanks to Microsofts attempts to make a lowest common denominator product of our beloved game.
honestly, that's the only response i can come up with

Wait
Wait
Wait
I looked at that thread
And te devs/testers seriously saying 'just don do that game destroyingly broken thing that has plagued the licence for 20 years'
Like honestly? In a competitive multi game? Are they fucking docile?
Anyway I loved lampooning mechassault for having green health bars just like he other games
holy shit this MWO trailer is boring as fuck
the one robot runs forward while the other robot runs backwards and they just endlessly laser each other
and that one little white robot that runs circles around them should have a huge advantage but i guess not
i would sure like to see some cool robots running around in this lovingly rendered environment
too bad there are no cool robots in this game??
