    I was huge MW2 fan back in the 1996s, almost one of my first PC games. I never played MW1 or MW3 but thoroughly enjoyed MW4. It's too bad that the series is now owned by Bad Company #953487543. I wanted to play the strategy game spinoff, too, but that's lost in time for me.

    I actually had MW2 "Titanium Edition" and never understood what the differences in all the MW2 variants were. Customing mechs was bad ass, also being able to turn on/off "Wire Frame Mode" (pics: https://imgur.com/a/24k7LWs) was just the coolest shit ever.

    There's a bit of magic there that these days is replaced with dumb hollow shit like "purchase spiderman DLC/skin".

    I’ve been playing the 2018 turn based Battletech game. It’s going really well now that I understand the turn orders and how to use the “reserve action” to make my scout mech useful at actual scouting for my indirect fire support mech.

    Been a big mechwarrior fan since 3, I used to play in a clan on MSN gaming zone way back when and I had no idea what was going on beyond mechs shooting each other. Inner Sphere? Clans? I’m just here to shoot flamers :grillman:

    was there a mechwarrior on SNES? i remember playing one constantly that had pretty simple 3d and was all about balancing heat mechanics. i would overbuild mechs and just keep hopping in and out of the ocean to cool down.
