Oh dear Lord
I play through Mechwarrior 4: Mercenaries about once a year. I still love it, even with the dated graphics. If there is a MW5 in the works (and it looks like there is) then I'm going to be very happy.

I hope it's another true Mechwarrior game and not one of those crappy Mech Assault spinoffs. I tried Mech Assault 2's multiplayer mode and got kicked from every game room because I didn't want to stand around for 5 minutes waiting for everyone to get max powerups. Then they would have a 10 sec battle in which you see who can Alpha Strike the fastest, then rinse and repeat. GD little ADD bastards.

It better be. God I love MechWarrior. My favourite mech was the Nova Cat. Turn off Overheating and let the PPCs fly...
Mechassault multiplayer was pretty crap, unless you were playing the co-op survival mode, that was pretty cool.
normal multiplayer in the first game was pretty much 75% of the people in ragnaroks, youd spend 98% of a fights time fighting a guy someone else would toss one shot off and steal the kill from you.
If they make a mechassault game, hopefully its a mix of the 2, I want some mech customization dammit.

I have the entire series. 3 was my favorite, but it doesn't play well with my current PC...even in compatibility mode. :(
People don't like to be meddled with. We tell them what to do, what to think, don't run, don't walk. We're in their homes and in their heads and we haven't the right. We're meddlesome. ~River Tam

Install VMWare on your PC and use Win95/98 for the OS, that's what I use to play Mech3 when I'm interested.

Hmm interesting. I just realized that I still have this:
I wonder if I can manage to get it to play?
I remember that one of the cheat codes is "IDKFA" which anyone from that time will recognize as the all weapons cheat from Doom. In Mech 2 it initiates a self destruct of you mech and says something to the effect of this game is not Doom. Ah, memories of gaming past...

It's been confirmed. Epic trailer is epic.

And it also stands for "I don't know **** all"?
As I recall, you could put that CD into a CD player and play the first track, or maybe everything except the first track. Anyway, the music was awesome and I used to listen to it all the time outside of the game.
Seriously LOVE Mechwarrior.

To promote the announcement, Smith & Tinker also announced that it will be offering FASA Studio's well-regarded MechWarrior 4, along with its several expansion packs, as a free download through BattleTech.com. Smith & Tinker did not indicate when the free download would be available, saying only that it will be coming "soon."

Hopefully it runs good in XP, and has widescreen support.
