Thanks to the TPG, I have been in a team filled with great people for a good while, and along with some of them, decided to take advantage of the deep gameplay, and the amazing graphics of the game, to make some sort of a mini actions series.
Trailer: The video has been rendered in 2K resolution, so make sure you watch it at 1440p quality.

Backstory:
Spoiler
A group of Crion mech pilots who didn't witness the explosion at the Praxis Valley research facility came back to the metropolis built on the Crion island but found no signs of life. They knew something bad had happened; the toxic atmosphere alone told them a big part of the story. They knew it was dangerous to remain there for long, so they left the city searching for answers and some glimpse of hope. The pilots searched for their families and any surviving comrades in Brosos and Trentik, but found nothing but terror in the eyes of citizens whenever they saw mechs around them. People refused to talk to unfamiliar mech pilots, so the Crion survivors ended up with no answers. All that was left to search was Ganev. They had to leave their mechs on the outskirts of the metropolis, and it worked out; few citizens had no problem answering them as they looked like normal passers-by. They learned about the explosion and that it was the result of a vicious fight between Prosk and Sentium, and that only Prosk and Sentium fighters survived in that area. Crion scientists and the local residents were unable to escape. What they feared most was true; they were the last men surviving among their friends and their families. Their projects, the people they had bonds with, all gone to sate Prosk and Sentium's selfish thirsts for energy and market dominance. The surviving squad has lost everything. A mixture of anger, sorrow, and deep hate is felt by all. With nowhere to turn, they could only think of one thing: vendetta. They wanted to make the people who made them suffer suffer in kind, and they needed to do it silently, for to be noticed would be to alert massive armies and angry displaced refugee citizens to their existence.
A silent vendetta …
The start of school has scrambled my life a lot, I mean, this trailer could have been posted a month ago. But from now on, there hopefully won't be any inaction.
We will try to post an Episode monthly. I hope my real life doesn't disturb me, because that's the only obstacle right now, as for my friends, they're always ready to help, that's what I appreciate most, and hopefully that's what will motivate me.
The series is not only aiming at entertaining HAWKEN players and fans, but to also showcase the amazing HAWKEN gameplay, and attract new players. The episodes will be published on youtube, and me and my mates hope that the Internet does its magic, and the videos get some good amounts of view.

That. Was. Epic. It would be interesting to see if other teams would do the same.
Well, tbh, what I've been thinking of is getting others involved too. Because, since there will some sorts of missions against enemies from prosk and sentium, we could invite other friends to participate, act as the "enemy" (or enemies). It could be quite fun for everyone
Splash this on YT, and run with it! Great!
if nothing else, noobs doing searches should get grabbed by this.
This is how the next generation of Hawken PLAY ME pub trailers should look!
