it would be great to see some melee weapons

This isn't Rock'em sock'em robots I'm affraid- given the speed the mechs can move at it would make melee weapons difficult to use, and put you at a massive disadvantage to any mech using even short range weapons ( T-32 Bolt, Flak, MiniFlak, Deconstructor beam etc etc ). You can however jump on other mechs heads and damage them that way- always fun to stomp another mech to death even though they EMP'd you :D

No melee. End of discussion.

 

 

 

 

..Alright, I will explain why. The reason for no melee is that it will work against the lore of the game, and the game does not have any mechanics made for melee. The mech would look silly and out of place too, because this not being some mecha shooter.

Hmmm. There is a point about lore. A lot of the weapons developed had roots in the industrial sector. Whose to say they didn't have mechs equipped with chainsaws to clear forests ect. You know who else had chainsaws? Yup, space marines!! Killing mutants have never been so fun!!

i assume we wont see those for similiar reasons as why real life tanks dont have anti-tank melee weapons.

the incinerators heat slam is probably the closest thing youll have to melee.
