I just thought I would add something positive to the current Hawken community.

I believe this game is special and hope it survives in one form or another.

I was never attracted to the F2P model and only feel it works for me when there is an option for a subscription as with Planetside 2 as an example.

The way I look at it currently, I was drawn in by the Steam offer and also bought the smaller 'package' for my two Nephews.

In total I have spent less than £50 not just on the game but including the soundtrack and the graphic novels/comics. I believe that to be pretty good value these days. For the number of hours I have logged, I feel comfortable with what I have spent.

It is a shame that player count is low when I get chance to play but the East Coast US servers have always had games I could join, even if the EU servers did not.

The learning curve is steep and I am glad that it is that way. I have even become accustomed to the MM...well almost...

A good game with great potential. Fingers crossed.

It's a free to play model that completely avoids the normal pay to win pitfall.  Even had I been required to pay up $50 to keep playing after they moved it to Steam (I was in on the free pre-beta), I would have gladly done so.  It's been worth every penny of that $50, plus some.

The world needs more FPS games that break free from the Modern Warfare/twitch shooter model.

I love this game too
Came from 10 years of rpg-console playing and found hawken. It is the first fps in 10 years that appealed to me, and i think it has its own niche that add to the experience.

spent almost 300 hours in game since i found it 4 months ago

Despite people telling that high graphics don't have much a difference compared to low,i disagree,my only dream is to build up a new rig to welcome any future this great game has.I  love watching videos of Hawken,and on high graphics there so many particles (shields taking dmg,floor being rip off,heal orbs flying around,like EVERYTHING) ,breathtaking if u gonna ask me,hawken was my love from a first sight,and till this day its still is.It's a reat game and I am just glad that i was a member of this great community for the last 2 years.

This is one of the most unique shooters, if not games, out there (to me). The minute I saw gameplay footage, it became number one on my favorite games list. A few years later, it's still better than anything else. It will survive. Even if it has to be on hiatus for a few months, there's too much to abandon.
