Very poor timing with release in my opinion; they are going to have three huge challengers now at release:
World of Tanks
HAWKEN
Planetside 2
+ other shooters
Still, I think this game has its target audience. My problem with it, WoT, and other free2play/pay2win games is that I have no time for grind and I don't feel like paying extra to win - it's not for me even when I love this universe. So this game will be rather for people who have lots of time.

NDA lifeted?
Here goes:
The graphics are very good, but some people with poor rigs complain that lower settings are not lower enough.
The economy sucks, you need to play and win 100 games to afford a dam Raven, a light mech.
You can of course buy real money and get mechs, this is where "rich" boys with their custom mechs come in but they are worst than people who actually play for fun.
I cannot belive that mechwarrior 3 had so fluid animations for the mech, the legs were actually uneven when the mech was on uneven ground, here the mech looks like a tank with legs.
There is no flush coolant, no repair bay, no coolant refil, and they respect the Battlemech story, so it's like year 3049, no MadCat, no Dashi, no clan weapons or mechs.
So yea, pirahna games has no idea how to make a mech based game to work online, they should have sticked to single player

What do you mean? You mean that legs actually touch sloped surfaces? Doesn't that happen in MW Online too?
