Piranha arming new MechWarrior?

if it comes out I'm getting it, just as long as it supports PC

if they come out with another mechwarrior like this one im sold...add to my collection

@Habast If you're hurting for some mech action hit up the Mektek website and dl their MTX client. From there you can dl the beta for Assault Tek One. It's a rebuild of Mechwarrior 2 from the ground up. There's not much single player to speak of, but i believe you can do skirmish and possibly multiplayer, not to mention their re-release of MechWarrior 4 Mercenaries will be coming out at some point with all of MekTek's added content. Trust me, it's good stuff if you're a die hard.

AMEN john_doe2! I used to play Mechwarrior2 all the time, but now can't because it only runs on '95/'98. Mechassault pales in comparison.

Sim style mech game= failed launch on 360

This MechWarrior better be like the old simulator ones and not like the recent crappy MechAssault games. Seriously, I want a game that takes just a tad bit of strategy and thinking to win. MW3 was a blast back in the day. I loved strategically outfitting my mech and blowing other mechs apart piece by piece.

Praying for this game to follow more of the arcade action style than the simulation style....We'll see...

protip for the guy giving a protip down the list.. ive taken an atlas in a lightweight its not THAT difficult but is by no means easy. focus fire torso to cripple gyro then focus fire head for the takedown.

Now we just need 1 more thing(4 the pc of course)......new tribes anybody???(sry for the broken english)

anyone knows whats the link to the new game? i did a search and couldnt find it

<< LINK REMOVED >> very nice trailer!

For those of worried about it being console-only, don't worry. There will be a PC version, along with an Xbox 360 version.

fapfapfapfap And protip for that mech in video: You are facing an Atlas, run now and don't stop.

They have confirmed it over at IGN. With a 2 minute trailer and everything. It's not gonna be MechAssault. It'll be for PC and 360.

About time they made a new one. The mechwarrior genre has captivated a large audience for a long time. The inner sphere will be revisited once again. Lets rumble, lets shake the ground, dust off the saitek, upload a slick logo for my mech, pay cable, electricity, stock up on rockstar and pork rinds, lock the door, fire up the dropship and other stuff, I love the smell of LBX20's and coolant in the morning.

The last thing I want is another Mech Assault, as cool as it was. It was far too arcade-sy.. what we need is a cross between steel battalion and mechwarrior.

Reviving the Mechwarrior genre would be one of the best things to happen for PC gaming over the last several years. I believe there are just to many PC gamer that are starved for this kind of gaming action that's been far to long absent and would have a tremendous reception if brought back to life. With today's PC hardware the graphics would be sick and On-Line multi-player action would be over the top !!! .....I can see Clans forming now !!..... I'm really rooting for you guy's at Piranha to pull this together and bring back something that many PC gamers have been craving for a long while.......NO CONSOLE PORTS PLEASE !

Oh, and true MechWarriors fight from cockpit view, not third person mode!

If this a console exclusive I will be so pissed!!!!! I have been waiting for a TRUE MechWarrior sequel for a long time. I played MW3 and MW2:MERC way back in the day. MW3 was my favorite because it was so immersive and it captured the feeling of the Mechs perfectly. They just felt big and heavy like massive walking death machines. MW4 didn't capture that feeling at all and I am not going to even talk about the disgrace that is MA. My hope is that they will go back to the roots of MechWarrior and make it a true combat sim. I know that they want to appeal to the brain dead teenagers who just want to run around and shoot things, but if has big robots, big guns, big explosions, and great graphics then it should appeal to the brain dead teens just fine. Please make this a true MechWarrior game and not some arcadey POS like MechAssault.

Mechwarrior 3 was my personal choice for the best in series. The Mobile Field Base could make the game a bit too easy, but the way MW3 did Autocannons and Lasers were perfect. MW4 ruined it by making it too much like an arcade shoot 'em up. I hope we're getting more MechWARRIOR and this won't be another game like Mech Assault.

yipeee mechwarrior coming back to life? I really hope so.

MW2 Mercs is still awesome.

ive never been a big fan in the MechWarrior games

All systems nominal.

Hellyes! I just hope its a Sim in the shadow of Mechwarrior2 but all were very satisfying

oh please please please! i used to live for the mech warrior 4 games, if they do make it i home they stick close to how those were made and not go along the lines of the Mech assault games

I think I'm going to have an internal ammo explosion.

Awesome. :) It's been too long.

Console mechwarrior (ala mech assault) can 'below' me. Give me another great pc simulator and Ill drool... or... mechlivinglegends.net Oh my god! What better reason to upgrade your comp to run crysis at max settings??

This is... exciting. Very exciting. Mechwarrior, Wing Commander, and X-Wing have all been in DESPERATE need of resurrection for years now... If this is what it appears to be we could all be in for a treat. Awesome.

Mechwarrior revived! Its about time!Giant robots decked out with lots of big guns,lasers and rockets dishing out loads of destruction...SWEEEEEET! I ve been waiting 8 yrs for a new mechwarrior game.With todays comps and graphic cards a new mech game would be amazing!Hopefully it dosent get saddled with consolitis and is developed properly for the PC, where it belongs.

If it is another MechWarrior after all these years and it DOESN'T come to PC... someone will get hurt! It's been to long. I wouldn't mind another Crimson Skies either... that was fun.

Mechwarrior? This just screams for a multiplayer PC release. I've been in mech-withdrawal for so long; they need to come out with a new one to inject some life back into the once-great series. Just thinking about how awesome a new MechWarrior game with modern graphics and good gameplay will be is enough to cheer them on!

If you're making Mechwarrior...go back to the roots of the game; don't continue the fail-sauce they were making. Come on Piranha, you can make a half way decent game! I believe in you!

I would love a good Mechwarrior game. Unfortunately, there have been lots of stinkers.

If it's a MechWarrior title I hope it's on the PC and not some watered-down, arcade-like game for the consoles.

For the love of god, please: new MechWarrior

We need a proper Shadowrun game.

poor FASA

OMG having MW back would be awesome! While I would be happy with a sim, how great would it be to have an MMORPG based on MW or at least a Privateer style game that allows you to start small, do missions, earn money and pimp your mech. I'm jazzed.

I hope there's a PC version, too - or maybe an OnLive version?

I'm excited, Mech Warrior is one of the best games ever. Mercenaries was the best.

I hope it will be great

I hope that they are serious about making a new MechWarrior game but if they do they better do an excellent good job on it. Otherwise they may tarnish MechWarrior's reputation of being a great series.

I hope MW is for PC as well

That foot gots to be Mad Dog! or storm crow, timberwulf, summoner, gargoyle, kit fox, jenner, nova, firemoth something! anyway hope its for consoles cause my pc lacks luster.

If you've seen the teaser trailers, you know it's MechWarrior.

It's be weird for them to purchase the rights and not do anything with it. Not bogus sounds good to me.

Happiness.

It's funny, just last month I was wishing for a new Mechwarrior game. I went and played through Mechwarrior 4 and Mech Commander 2 over the last few weeks. Great fun. And ya, I hope they keep it sim and not like mech assault also.
