Hey folks.
 

 

 

Before I found Hawken I played a mech shooter that was quite similar to Hawken, called Exteel. It was a fast, 3rd person, mech/gundam free2play shooter with the same gameplay features like heat managment, boost/dash, customasation etc. It was developed by NCsoft and taken down september 2010.

Now 5 years later NCsoft announced a new mech shooter called Project Hon

Let us know what other mech games you have played/ know/ looking forward to. :)

I can't find anything else besides the trailers for Project Hon. :/ I hope we see any news on that soon.

 

 

On topic:

another realy old mech game that I loved was Metal Fatigue. It's a RTS from around 2000 where you could mix and match customized mech units (so called combots)

phantom crash
------3rd person on xbox
       allowed you to pick weapons & then tune them.  DPS would stay constant but you could vary ROF vs damage.
        not the best graphics now but worth checking on youtube

mechwarrior series
-----seriously who doesnt know the series
 


Time you enjoy wasting is not wasted time

There is Project Nimbus.  It's on steam and in development for early access.

Here's a trailer:

It's a neat little thing, you can pilot different types of mechs, and the storyline is presented in missions from the different perspectives of various factions participating in war.  It reminds me a lot of armored core and the gundam series.  The dev team is working hard on it all the way from Thailand I think.

 

This is one of the latest missions that was recently added:

My obsession began with MechWarrior 2, as I'm sure it did for many others around here. 
 

The other one which really stands out in my memory is PhantomCrash. There was something extremely cool / unique about it despite its flaws. 

Now days I just swap between Hawken and Titanfall when I need my mech fix. It's unfortunate there aren't more options based around first person mech combat.

I don't even know when I started on mech games, I've been playing them on and off for years.

I've played a bunch of Gundam games over the years, Mechwarrior games, etc.

I also do table top BattleTech, Warhammer 40k (not really a mech game, but they're in there), and Heavy Gear (new miniatures game coming out!).

 

Right now I don't really play mech games too much. I tried MWO but it's been too hard annoying to grind for money to build a decent mech. So I just found Hawken. I had heard of it but never really looked at it (in part because F2P) but plan on installing it on my computer tonight. The other mech game I'm looking at right now is Dark Horizons Mechanized Corps (which isn't F2P but is cheap enough for me).
