Your top link is from a scrapped MechWarrior 5 single player game, Koneg, and not from MechWarrior Online.



Right, which is why it was posted by MechwarriorOnline and is the exact same video embedded on the site?

Wow, so it is.

Leave it to Koneg to even point that out in a douchey manner!

They just stand there and shoot at each other until one explodes? Sounds like rock solid game design.

Keep this firmly in mind when watching: Everything you're seeing is rendered using the in-game engine... It can be drool time now pweeze?



Yeah and you know this how?
Cuase some fansite or marketing blurb said so, amirite...

I mean sure that old vid might help keep people interested until or IF the real product comes out.




PS. There's alot of fancy shit that can be rendered with modern game engines, but they might not run in real time.
hth.

Oh I don't know - maybe the little text overlay at the bottom right gives it away?

They got delayed by over a year because that Reveal trailer landed them in court.


That's an Atlas fighting a Warhammer. Unfortunately the Warhammer is one of The Unseen. I even mentioned this issue in an earlier post but didn't expand on it, since I presumed Battletech/Mechwarrior fans would already know about it.


FASA stole a shiatload of their original mech designs from Japanese manga and TV shows - and FASA got sued into the ground. The Warhammer is one of those designs. This is why you never see it it any Mechwarrior game. Dittos for the original Marauder, Locust, Archer, Rifleman, Wasp, and a bunch of others. These are all iconic designs - have you never wondered why you never see them in any of the Mechwarrior games? It wasn't until the 'IIc' variants came out, which changed the original models to get around the copyright, that you see anything even resembling those designs come back.


Anyway, when they released that trailer in 2009, they got sued by Harmony Gold for the exact same reason. That lawsuit was the reason for the "All stop" in promotion and production.


The one good thing that came out of all this - since they were stuck unable to release anyway they used that time to switch from a single player title, to an MMO.
