Hey there. I am not sure if anyone has seen this but its still in early development should be interesting.

of course you should fight fire with fire, you should fight everything with fire.

Mech Assault 3 no thanks.

IF it was a RTS with direct control features like Men of War then cool, but this just the dark place that shall not be named.

Remember shoot or die!

More arcadey less realistic pls. It would be way better if everything looked like plastic toys for 3y old children and they fired nerf guns at each ohter. Also what thunham said.

Wow that video was pretty amazing though, destructible environments, nice looking asset art for that scale. Really good for an early build.

I don't like the game type though, arcade games don't have my replay value. What I'd really like to see it that engine and assets used in a mechcommander style game, multi mech management and a mechlab. Perhaps with the option to take over an individual mech and play play arcade style. And get rid of the pew pew lasers, replace with proper beams.

Also, where do I know that concept art from?

God, for the biggest derps on the planet you people are elitist fucks


It looks like a pretty early build, who knows, you may control the one unit and control other forces like an RTS....I'd be fine with this...if you get destroyed then no more command for you....would give importance to your command mech


If that's all there is too it then meh, I'd get bored but I'd try it....it's mechwarrior after all I'd have to try it


And no Tom that's not mech assault....not even close

This is mechassault

[youtu.be]

Don't just call stuff MEchassault to be cool and dis a game...




Sometimes I question if you people are actually BT/Mechwarrior fans or just a bunch of overly jaded gamers



Edit: also, if this isn't associated with CryEngine then PGI has no say in the matter...if for some reason however, they work at crytek and are using the engine for a pet project for a BT game whilst crytek is charging PGI at the same time then that's a conflict of interest...just a random situation I thought up, it has absolutely ZERO relevance to any real world events

Edit 2: good find Namarah, I appreciate it at least

Yalk.. did you have to link that crap. Now I'm all depressed.

But you're right. It's not quite as derpy and low as Mechassault. Still it's an arcade game, which isn't good for a franchise that was mostly simulator (or at least tried to be... yes I'm looking at you mechwarrior 4).

It looks like it could be a fun game tbh.

It does look like it could be a fun game yeah. Needs beam lazorz though. The ranges get a bit fucked up, but that's a caveat of that angle and scale of play I guess.

---

-I would if I could, but I can't so I won't.

Ok its a early build of Mech Assault 3 for PC with a zoomed out perspective.

I watched the video and got bored2 minutes into it

I like the concept art though, some mechs looked cool and others looked derp, although a lot of them look way too similar to each other with very little variation.

Time will tell what comes from this, but i agree with what Gout is saying, have another Mech Commander style game not just, pew pew blam blam rinse repeat for 30 levels that was 2 hours of fun never touched again.

So basically... this?

Also Yalk I fail to see why just because it's BT doesn't mean this couldn't be ragged on, it does look pretty boring to me (big surprise to you all I'm sure).

Either way, if it were cheap I'd likely give it a shot.

---

Well, they updated today...the mechs and vehicles will have external and internal hit locations with criticals and motive damage for vehicles with consequences taken from the critical hits tables in the technical read outs



So it will basically be like playing Table Top without the dice roles etc.


I agree that the initial video is rather dull, but damn guys...ya'll get excited about the stupidest fucking shit, and then your like, oh hum...another battletech game? who cares, lets go play defeat the aliens generic shooter #30076


I'm not super pumped either from the video, but it was just a test and showcase of the engine and current build....go back and watch any of the early videos of MWLL and tell me that they resemble what was the final product...

<snip> - Basically your wrong Trunham...go actually play a MechAssault game and then come back and re-evaluate your incorrect and blatantly ignorant statements again...(my other version was much less polite and civil), or while everyone is playing "kill the generic aliens" you can go play "Generic Dungeon crawler #35 search for your sisters anus beads"

.

So...Battletech?


I will admit though, that if the video is basically the final game play then...meh....especially if its linear like it appeared to be...even if it was styled more like mechCommander it would be meh...that game had 1 replay in it...the real thing that puts me off is no multiplayer



I think it will be fairly cheap, I think I read someplace on their blog that it was free even. But now I can't be sure and can't check at work.



Edit: Because spelling hurts my brain

See that's cool, make it multiplayer and I'll be far more interested, it'll feel like Future Cop LAPD, but with BT, plus playing with people is something far more interesting for me at the moment.

I hope they sort out the particle effects a bit, looks somewhat ropey.

Also that veiled go at NS2 (which I still play and would play with you all) seems a bit uncalled for, it has really interesting gameplay dynamics imo, asymmetrical balance and all that.

All in all, initial impressions are low, but I'm ALWAYS happy to be proven wrong.

---

Lol, it wasn't a shot at NS2 actually...but I thought it might come off that way, couldn't be asked to re-word

I was more referring to the general plethora of pew pew generic shooters some of which involve alieams...my point was, we play all manner of stupid honestly shit games that we draw amusement from, and we aren't even gonna give a BT game the benefit of the doubt? Shamefu dispray....I'm fine with condemning it after we play it (ie I enjoy MWO - agree it disagree, but I couldn't get into Mechwarrior:Tactics)




I hope they reconsider multiplayer...that's the big meh for me right now...

"SORRY, I couldn't hear you over the sound of my tits! what were you saying?"

My fault being a social reject.. been catching up at swords since i finally got some money. Ill be around this entire weekend starting tomorrow night.

Lol... I guess my initial reaction to it was "meh what ever" simply because most games of today are WOW LOOK AT THIS AWESOME, wait its a pile of actual SHIT!

And also in part I was trying to spare my self the disappointment of another crap CBT game of some kind.

The first showings of it all did seem a little lame but given time then it hopefully will turn into something rather decent, so here is to hoping that in future something fantastic will emerge from something small and menial.
