Re: MechWarrior Online Launching Summer 2012
I'm thrilled, even more by the fact that I'll more than likely have the rig to run it by then. I know I can contact some of you over Live, so anyone is free to message me there regarding this.
I wonder what old school Mechassault players will think (pre Mech2 days)? I'm from the first era, so I don't know many Mech 2 people. I really miss defending with my Bowman in CTF Midtown.

Re: MechWarrior Online Launching Summer 2012
My pilot tag on MWO is my old MA gamertag, red beard. Look me up and "friend me". This game is getting more exciting as the days go by.

I vote we register with our XBL gamertags for easy identification. Otherwise I won't remember who "Aeternia" is.

Re: MechWarrior Online Launching Summer 2012
Originally the game was going to be 360 & PC - I found this in the news archive at pirahna games:
Quote: Wednesday, July 8th, 2009:
Piranha Games announces development of MechWarrior for the Xbox 360 (TM) and PC.
Note the date - 2+ years in development. Slower than MekArcade!

You are correct CDXbow.
Everyone should check out this intial blog post from one of the head developers, Bryan Ekman:
http://mwomercs.com/news/2011/10/2-dev-blog-0
Some good initial concept video's and the back story of how they couldn't get a publisher to touch them do to restrictions Microsoft put on the license that prohibited them for developing the game for rival consoles such as PS3 or Wii. Because of this, no publisher wanted to touch them.

Re: MechWarrior Online Launching Summer 2012
Speaking of befriending on the website, my name is HaloHunter72 over there, same as my original gamertag. I've added Redbeard and C6 as friends.
