Very poor timing with release in my opinion; they are going to have three huge challengers now at release: World of Tanks HAWKEN Planetside 2

+ other shooters Still, I think this game has its target audience. My problem with it, WoT, and other free2play/pay2win games is that I have no time for grind and I don't feel like paying extra to win - it's not for me even when I love this universe. So this game will be rather for people who have lots of time.

NDA lifeted? Here goes: The graphics are very good, but some people with poor rigs complain that lower settings are not lower enough. The economy sucks, you need to play and win 100 games to afford a dam Raven, a light mech. You can of course buy real money and get mechs, this is where "rich" boys with their custom mechs come in but they are worst than people who actually play for fun. I cannot belive that mechwarrior 3 had so fluid animations for the mech, the legs were actually uneven when the mech was on uneven ground, here the mech looks like a tank with legs. There is no flush coolant, no repair bay, no coolant refil, and they respect the Battlemech story, so it's like year 3049, no MadCat, no Dashi, no clan weapons or mechs. So yea, pirahna games has no idea how to make a mech based game to work online, they should have sticked to single player

What do you mean? You mean that legs actually touch sloped surfaces? Doesn't that happen in MW Online too?

Looks okay, Hawken is more my style.

Was playing it for a week, or rather trying to play it. Had tons of glitches, starting from everything being semi transparent to crashing to desktop every 15-20 minutes. Through whole week i managed to end maybe 5 - 6 rounds. Loved the previous games but this one so far has been completely unplayable for me.

I got accepted in Beta too and Im disappoint.. It looks dated, no dx11, to much DOF, streaming bugs and on top of that nvidia drivers suffers from low gpu usage. I got 40-50% gpu usage most of the time with 30-45fps xD, lovely. I erased it after 5min.

So, I played other betas that ran 10x better.. Even BF3 Alpha did :| Gameplay was kinda boring too, not impressed. Actually im not impressed with Cryengine3, the more I see it the more I think its a flop. >_< I didnt have any CTD though.. Btw Crysis2 suffered the same, but nvidia somehow fixed it with latest 306.23 & 306.63 driver (after 1 year).. They probably wouldn't do anything if I and few others haven't reported low gpu usage drops.

Fair enough, sorry if i came across all negative. 🙂 Maybe it will get better later.. But i kinda doubt it, its not my cup of tea 😀
