In a way, this site has been making the transition from Mechassault Fan Site to a place for a bunch of friends with a common link...Mechassault...to keep in touch with one another and continue playing games.
Plus, there are still things big, stompy, and robotic to do.
- We may have lost Mechassault via Live, but XBconnect is still out there; MACommunity could help people organize games of MA that way, when organization will be more important than ever.
- I'm spending a good chunk of today trying to figure out what's wrong with my ability to host games of Battletech via MegaMek, which we can also coordinate and organize through here.
- We should be getting Mechwarrior 5 in the next year to year and a half; it won't have the same 'arcade shooter' feel as Mechassault, but will be the same universe with some of the same machines.
- For those that play on PC as well, Mechwarrior Living Legends is continuing its steady development, which from the last time I talked to AndrewOsis had a Mechassault-like feel.
That's in addition to the group's current likes; MW2, racing, setting up a TF2 team, general BSing, and etc. I don't see us going anywhere until finances dictate otherwise.
