DOCTOR ZIMBARDO posted:How is the open beta? If I'm a jumpy gorilla with no impulse control should I get a steam code for it now? When does the full game come out? I dont have it, but from reading this thread: Its pretty drat good, but its still just (good and fun) skirmishes against the AI. Multiplayer should be along soon. People have reported getting 4-5 hours of fun out of it, and noone has said they are bored and putting it away. They are also soliciting a lot of feedback by surveys after each game. Probably worth it if you want to join the conversation and have very poor impulse control, I'm waiting because I have too many unplayed games already.

Zaodai posted:You've posted nothing but irrational poo poo-talk about basically everything so far, I'm not particularly inclined to argue it out with you. Think what you like, it was merely a recommendation for a way they could address people's concerns about overall stability damage from missiles. Lurms do damage too, so bringing more is its own reward. Stability damage is a bonus, scaling it down a bit makes sense.

aniviron posted:Part of the issue with AI retreats is also that it tends to feel really aggravating to players when wounded enemies flee instead of getting to finish them off. I think it's one of those things that's good in theory, but in practice is annoying.

Great Beer posted:XCOM chat reminded me for whatever reason: do we know if it's possible to bust through buildings to take risky shortcuts and or be badass as hell? Destructable environments are key to any xclone. My guess would be not, I don't know that Unity stretches to that kind of thing. Would be cool though.

Phrosphor posted:I think they have spent a lot of work laying groundwork for the whole simulation part of the game and have just been plugging in all the different components and making sure they work nice before spending overly long on the single player up till now, since it has to sit on top of the simulation and present itself through it. The simulation sounds pretty robust under the hood, even looking at the stuff in the beta they left in for how to generate a random mechwarriors background and basic stats is really detailed. I've heard that a lot of what you'd think of as core game stuff actually happens quite late in development, idk if that's the case here or if they've just been optimistic about how fast they could get stuff done.

A good Vice article. quote:(To give you an idea of what we're working with here: In one legendary scene, Prince Hanse Davion is darkly reflecting on the growing antiwar movement against his leadership. About five seconds later, his palace is attacked by enemy raiders and Hanse sprints to his old Mech—saying something like, "My enemies have forgotten that the battlefield was once my kingdom, and a Mech cockpit my throne!"—and rides to battle, single-handedly saving his capital. In the process he's wounded, and is satisfied that now his haters will have to acknowledge he pays the same price he asks of his people. It's like if the Queen's line about "being able to look the East End in the face" during the Blitz came on the heels of her using a Spitfire to shoot down a squadron of Stukas. And if I'm being honest, I still love this poo poo.) It's almost magical how bad the MWO people are at publicity, HBS are literally using every single robot model they've made but the F2P game (which is solid, if disappointing) never gets mentioned. sebmojo fucked around with this message at 11:42 on Jun 24, 2017 |

Dolash posted:Hey y'all, sorry to ask a dumb question but I've been avoiding the beta to keep the game fresh for when it comes out. The only mention I've seen of a release date lately is 2018, which is pretty broad, though the chatter in here over the last couple pages seems pretty positive about how the game's coming along. Any indication it might be ready in a few months or should I expect to tune out for another year? i'd calibrate your expectations to mid 2018.

NoNostalgia4Grover posted:Using PGI art-assets to speed up the development process was a massive mistake, at least to me. PGI art assets look like rear end. You are insane. E: I mean I guess it's open to dislike the style, but there's no way a shop the size of hbs could have modeled skinned and rigged that number of models without severely impacting the other aspects of the game. Do you have any side by side examples of mwll vs mwo models to show what you mean? sebmojo fucked around with this message at 02:39 on Jan 28, 2018 |
