So, I heard from a reliable source you can play Howken on XBONE by switching your region to Asia (or wherever it is tomorrow already).
What are you console peeps waiting for, go gather intel...

From that guy who dates lions:
EDIT: New stream
EDIT: Early access on XBL is achieved by region change.
So, it's bad guys. The promised "new mechs" are all G2s, the dual seeker mech featured on THE FRONT PAGE of playhawken.com doesn't exist, the UI "improvements" are hilariously cheap looking, the Cupcake is no longer exclusive, there's an incredibly tacky gold chassis and there are scanners on goddamn everything.
On the other hand, CRT is the base mech again, you can change chassis parts that are NOT middle and HP changes do not seem to be entirely out of hand.
EDIT: Berserker - 5hp nerf
EDIT: Bots still have random chassis middles /headdesk
EDIT: There does not appear to be item or internal customization, but that might be the crappy UI at the moment. And you're restricted to two item types, with one charge each.
EDIT: Scout now has 300 HP. One-shotable. EDIT: Mechs appear to be priced at 5k, 10k, and 20k HC. Rip Brawler.
EDIT: HC gain values appear to be buffed. Unsure if this is from the buff Reloaded enacted in October or new to consoles. Someone who actually makes alts should figure this out.
EDIT: No customizations confirmed. You start with set MkI items and internals and then upgrade them with HC for better versions. I am going to cry.
EDIT: Reloaded bad at scheduling confirmed.

when streetmarine07 play, i notice when he maximize rank 1 on assault, game open window with message, that player open/research "blokades", probably now (after rank 1) he can equip his mech with blokades+ISM, instead default detonator+ISM, and than also maximize blockades from 1 to 2 lvl. But i'm not sure.

It'd be pretty hilarious/horrifying if the mechs that start with scanners, could only ever use scanners.
Thats exactly what is it like. .........



Come on Crafty, you have been officially called out on your lies. Your online reputation is at stake here, this is just like an old school street race running for pink slips. Its run what you brung and hope its enough. Put up or shut the fuzzy bunny up.

Are the Hellfires no longer able to lock-on? Just watched two matches of the guy playing with a Bruiser and he never once locks on.
To be serious for a moment this is just a joke

I think it's more that they auto-lock rather than they don't lock.

Bring out the Incinerators, boys and girls. This "NOEF" beast must be killed with as much fire as possible.

The shots he's firing sure as hell don't "auto-lock" or track at all.

Don't get me wrong - not want to diss the guy streaming. But Reloaded has to admit, that this is one fuzzy bunnyng mediocre reveal of their "hard" year long work.
EDIT: On the other hand - even the best marketing campaign can't paint that stuff beautiful enough to convince anyone who played Hawken before.

So, what does its ability do?
I have a lot of ideas and would like some feedback on them:
Suggestions for fixing things:
https://community.pl...of-suggestions/
Suggestions for new things:
Hellfires do lock on. The player just isn't using the weapon utility. It is default mapped as the right joystick button. But no one seems to know to use it; probably due to no tutorial.
So, what does its ability do?

Updated info from he who dates lions
Nickle-and-diming HUD colours and crosshairs still in.
First new bug confirmed - menu music continues into game.
It was brief, but I believe G2 mechs have more item charges that you can upgrade. Confirmation pending.
PARTIES CAN BE SPLIT BETWEEN TEAMS, HALLELUJAH
Lingering rumor of a 100kHC mech. This thing better hook up to an onahole for that price.
Big info dump from Hyginos:
* Raider and its upgraded version 5 more and 5 less HP than the current version. Not sure if nerf or buff. Might be the same case with zerk.
* vangaurd hp buff:now 725
* Battle Turkey seems to have gotten a slight speed/fuel buff. Weapons are no longer labeled "XT"
* Ping not visible on scoreboard
* bots still have PC patch load outs. Streamer got chewed up by a miniflak cupcake with no internals a few times.
* Looks like no free week mechs either.
G2 Assault now has 585 HP. Saving grace is that its still dual vulcans Mechs appear to have individualized dodge speeds now. Scout's is 0.7 GG NO RE scrubz
Bruiser has a "basic air compressor" jfc
Dual seeker mech has been sighted in game, despite RLD statement that it and Gedes were removed for balancing
3:33pm Armoured Klown makes appearance, immediately talks fuzzy bunny
G2 Pred clocks in at 19210HC

Its really sad that every single G2 mech in the garage is literally just a screenshot of the garage itself. And all the normal mechs are the actual original picture. Its the little things something that really piss you off...
If the goal was to repackage Hawken and its existing content with less customization options then congrats Reloaded you knocked it out of the park.
If the goal was anything other than that... well I've got some bad news for you Reloaded...
Edited by KejiGoto, 30 June 2016 - 12:55 PM.
Anyone make a video analysis pls?
I would like to think maybe PS4 version have a different mech web and something different(Which might leads to a more Hawken-oriented Hawken on PC)---rather than admit the whole howken thing, which is happening right now.

That Grey colour is actually the universal G2 series painting, remember the first G2 pred that Tiggs showed to us?
G2A is ALSO old assault chassis with that "special" painting.
And that tech G2 screen shot.

Oh fer... They even made Nief that hideous peasantbox green color I wonder if that's an unlockable color or if it comes that way.
