You are all old enough to remember MechWarriors, right? (maybe not all of you, but I know some people on this forum knows what I'm talking about).

Why the hell has no one made a good mecha game in the past 4+ years? As my personal opinion (and stated multiple times on the forums), Chromehounds was the last great mecha game that I enjoyed. Before that, it was MechWarrior 4. How come no one is making mecha games anymore yet I think we are due for a Triple AAA title mecha game already. I havn't heard of any mecha game other than that new Mech Warriors game, so what gives?

I'll tell you what, everyone likes indie games, right? (Minecraft to name one example)

Well, what if I told you that there is an indie game that will be a mecha game that looks like this will be come out:

Like it says in the video, that's only after 9 months of development. Here is also an interview with two of the developers. I'm not trying to advertise the game, but I really want to reach out to other mecha gaming fans and discuss one thing... what would be cool or what would make a great mecha game? I'm going to try and show enough support for this game to be a full release and hopefully have some kick ass mecha multiplayer action. :P

PS before you ask... Marauder II is what I used in MechWarriors.

Watched & enjoyed the video. Don't know if I'll enjoy playing it, as doesn't seem to have the "simulation" vibe that I usually get from playing any of the MechWarrior series. I'll put this game under my watch list & see how it turns out.

I agree, it doesn't give off a simulation vibe as much as mechwarriors or chromehounds, but there hasn't been a great mech game in years and it's kinda time to get one which is this title!

I also found this picture:


Judging by how big the mechs are, they are similar to size of what the mechs were in Killzone. I would of loved to have MechWarriors sized mechs where they were likes 12 to 20 stories high... but mechs the size of a half a street make it useful to have jet packs which I think will make for fun while defending OR advancing.

I've been waiting for something like this for TOO FUCKING LONG. I want it now.
