Heavy Gear Assault really is a thing guys. Don't be not excited, yet! Thanks for all who got me referrals. I now have two closed beta keys. If 11 more people get me a referral I will give the other three away.

Yeah, that's what I am saying.

Do we really need another one

From what they say the initial game mode will be arena deathmatch and they'll be making new modes as they go along. I have no faith anymore in big stompy robots. However, I want HGA to be good.

Can I spend 500 USD on a gold heavy gear Y/N?

Not yet.


Just, uh, read this:





What is the release plan for Heavy Gear Assault?

The Heavy Gear Assault development team plans to release HGA in the form of modules. Heavy Gear Assault will release in a series of modules, culminating with the launch of the Heavy Gear persistent universe with episodic single player warfare. Anticipated release dates for these modules are currently being finalized. However, the first module to be released is the Battle Module, which is planned for release by Q2 2014.
What does the Battle Module contain?

First and foremost, the Battle Module consists of the core gameplay mechanic. All of the major systems and sub-systems will be introduced which are necessary for core gameplay such as the movement, inventory, damage, & weapons systems. Our Community Warfare tools will also be introduced such as our community lobby system, our basic match making system, and our dedicated server system all supporting a certain level of world persistence. The Battle Module will feature our first world codenamed “Hydro” as well as our finest selection of Gears and Striders available at the time of release. Our focus is not on content with this module but rather mechanic and balancing.
What other Modules are planned?

We have many modules planned before final release of the game. Descriptions of these modules will be updated here over time. Right now you can look forward to seeing the Black Market Module – this is where we plan to introduce various aspects of HGA’s meta-game including the Black Market, Economy System, Arena Clowns, various Game Types, and an integrated world persistence. The Gear Bay Module – this is where we introduce complete control over the look and feel of your Gears, Striders, and Pilots and yes even your very own corner of the Gear Bay. Want to make your Gear look like a sports car? No problem. Want to make your Gear look like a WWII tank? No problem. The Weapons & Equipment Module – this is where we introduce a plethora of weapons from all weapons classes and an assortment of equipment in the Heavy Gear universe. The Intelligence Module – this is where we introduce our Intelligence and CPU systems. The Corporate Module – this is where we plan to introduce the concept of corporate sponsors and why they are soooo important to your success as a player in HGA. Over the course of the development cycle we may decide to roll together or split apart modules depending on the amount of time spent on particular features.

Holy hell. I spend a month moving and now there is a new thread and talks of unit registration. Has the game drastically changed in the last month or so? Is CW still a pipe dream or actually coming to fruition?

Stockholm syndrome. It's gotten even worse. I might play again. What is happening to me. It's simply a lack of good stompy robot options with no better alternate. Isn't that loving sad? Where can I get my mech simulation hardon stroked properly around here? The mechwarrior gloryhole went dry a long time ago. Now, it's like loving a wall. A wall that's been hosed so many times there is almost another hole in it.

I buy mechs on looks only. Which mech is the most serviceable while being dead sexy? The nova looks faggy and I refuse to clan mech. The victory is much sweeter while piloting a piece of poo poo. This is why I use the yen-low-tee

Since trial mechs are now the champion editions, you can try a mech and get a feel for how it might actually perform if made by someone who understood how the game works.

OK cool. Also, I have a founders Jenner, atlas, etc so I have some decent mechs I guess.

Well us goons won like 9 out of 10 matches last night. The only thing that really pissed me off was narc and tag, otherwise I pretend each mech is the same and I'm having fun.

Having a human being raven narc and tag your targets.

I did 300 damage as a flamer hunchie and was the last alive. It was an epic round of shutting down clan mechs. It seems to actually do something now. The most noticeable is that the flamer doesn't add minimum heat anymore.

Kazvall

We have a wonderful mix of goons that can't stop playing this poo poo and goons that quit after a couple rounds and never come back. I have to say I'm having a blast, somehow, and would like to get a clan mech when I can purchase one for cbills. I'd say give this game a chance with a lance of 8-12 goons and see how you like it.

I, too, thought 500 dollars only got you a gold skin. It also nets you all of the other packages they are offering. So, essentially you get every single clan mech, a gold skin, and a bunch of other bullshit like modules.

It's still loving silly to spend 500 dollars on any game.
