You can do that in MWO too: http://mwo.smurfy-ne...6be451bc5439977

But yeah, enjoy Hawken if you like it. :) In my opinion, closest mech to something like that would be Reaper/Sharpshooter, as Gauss is extreme sniping mostly (unless you brawl hard with it). If you brawl with it then probably Raider actually, even though it's a shotgun and feels more LBX style, since there aren't components (can't specifically target parts of a mech or I'd like to leg that annoying Scout and leave him limping until someone wants to goomba stomp him :lol:) so all the shotgun shells would effect the entire mech getting shot.

Oh Yea my current Fav is the Reaper (renamed it to Scythe lol) and i've been grinding it to dust lmao

My two favorite to pilot.
The Puma I would run with no armor and high powered motor with a single long range and single short range laser. Run down the hill at them firing the long range laser and then circles around your enemy with the short range laser and they could never keep up.
The Daishi I would have heavily armor with a slower engine, heavy heatsinks, a PPC and Gauss for primary with LRM's for secondary. Stand my ground and make them come to me kind of driving for him. Usually hung out in the high hills areas or town buildings to gain cover from the enemy.

But noone can deny the awesomeness and fear the MadCat and Atlas(Annihilator in MW3_) would bring onto the field....

Though completely off-topic, getting MW4 Mercs' Mekpak 3.1 (google finding is your best bet as Mektek is a fuzzy bunny and now is doing Heavy Gear stuff.) is very worth, as it includes 100+ mechs and a ton of new things. Glad there are battletech enthusiasts out here like me too. :)

They both have their quirks and benefits. Hawken is more on the action in my opinion, while MWO is more on tactical gameplay (well balance is way off compared to Hawken). Oh yeah and MWO costs 100% more than Hawken. But both are different in their ways.

I've tried MWO. I don't know how people can even move correctly, much less land their shots... ;~;
Lol, I guess I suck at simulators.

As D3Dreaper said here, compared to Hawken (much easier learning curve), MWO and Mechwarrior in general is a tough learning curve (MW4 and MW3 are a bit easier than MWO as they are more single player based.)

So it's like if players started out with G2 fat Raiders and Predators instead of CR-T. :P Tough start with the trials and Cadet Bonus and all.
