HEY! and i hope u are all as excited about this game as i am! im really new, in fact just read PCPP august edition today and decided to download this game ASAP, so im wondering if anyone who has already played the game a bit would be willing to post just a few hints or pointers for the first few things like "watch ur fuel guage, it runs out real quick" or anything like that, that us noobs should look out for. im watching and reading lots of tutorials, but theres nothing like straight player experience to iron out the details and finer points.

thanks in advance, good hunting - zero

Well first the point with the fuel isnt a bad idea ;)

2. SHIFT IS YOUR FRIEND here in Hawken, try to dodge in the heat of a battle as often as you can and always keep an eye  on your fuel while your doing this;)

3. DONT FLY AROUND LIKE A BIG FAT EAGLE !!!!! Its not useful in most time you do that for you, it only makes it easy to point at you because your Mech is slow and you highlight your self from the envoirment. And another big reason why not to is that there is no fuel left to flee or dodge behind some cover.

4.WATCH THE HEAT LIMIT !!!Every Mech has a diffrent Heat limit so DON'T spray and prey here or do any other Rambo stuff, fire in salves

and 5. STAY BY YOUR TEAMMATES they often knew what to do and you can even get some nice assist or Kills with any death after that ;)

so that is all what you have to do in Hawken :)

I hope my english isn't to bad to understand ^^

good luck recruites and have a nice day
