When I first watched this, I was immediately reminded of the Walker segments from Killzone. Looks impressive, but I'll have to see some story stuff before I get truly interested.

Re: Hawken (a game with Mechs!)
So, they are now taking sign-ups for the beta. People are getting referral codes, that if filled, allows the referrer to reserve their callsign registration. I've already got one referral, and I need 2 more to be able to reserve.

Hit it up. And here is their YouTube channel for anybody wanting a refresher:
Adhesive Games YouTube Channel

Referral: http://playhawken.com/?ref=o9oiec6a

Post here if you take a referral (only need 2 more!) and then you can post your own referrals (each referral needs 3 pickups for registration)

Re: Hawken (a game with Mechs!)
Wohoo! Now I'm only one away. Please, just one more wafer...er, I mean, referral.

*Edit: I have my name! Awesome! Course, now they are teasing that even more things are possible, so...choose your comrades wisely.

Though it says if you keep recruiting people, you get some sort of rewards.... no clue what they mean.
But fine by me, thanks to anyone who helped.

Looks like Phantom Crash, only with better graphics than those on the first gen XBox.
If you hit it and it bleeds, you can kill it. If you hit it and it doesn't bleed...You are obviously not hitting hard enough.

This looks pretty sweet. I'm in.

If it's moddable, then holy crap I will shoot down the moon with a blow gun for this game. Gundams and Mechwarrior mods anyone?

Re: Hawken (a game with Mechs!)
Took a look at the trailer.

Hated the vapor effects, the obvious jump ceiling (complete with stutter!), complete utter and total lack of destructible surroundings, and prancing anime mecha fights.

Yeah, no.  I'll keep waiting for MWO, thanks.

I'm going to assume you haven't seen that desert map trailer then. Cause if your comment is based on that trailer than I can only conclude you are dumb.
'obvious jump ceiling' please do point out where exactly this is at all visible and ' prancing anime mecha fights', you don't know what you are talking about. The pacing shown in Hawken is only one step above mechwarrior because the mechs have jumpjets which they can seemingly only use limitely to do a quick strafe and jump. The walking is slow as balls and has this delicious weight to it. Which is nothing like say eXteel or one of those Gundam arcade games which are more about quickly dashing in and out of combat.

Recent Hawken material has been quite impressive and seems like it might be a lot of fun. MWO has shown nothing but an ancient trailer and some concept art and because of its F2P model may end up sucking hard.
Urutorahappī!!

Re: Hawken (a game with Mechs!)
I have seen the desert map trailer, and granted while the Mechs felt significantly more imposing from a cockpit view than a free camera view addressing the anime mecha fights, the vapor effects (which are EVERYWHERE) still look like balls, the completely indestructible surroundings are annoying, and the jump ceiling still appears to exist, seeing as how there isn't a single point anywhere in either of the trailers I've seen now where a Mech has jumped more than three meters in the air and kept going up; they all just hit three meters and run into a damn wall without going another centimeter.

Re: Hawken (a game with Mechs!)
This game looks pretty freaking awesome so far. Indie studios seem to be our only hope these days, now that AAA titles are all some variation of Call of Honor 9,001: Modern Warhawk Circlejerk. I miss the days of MechWarrior, although I only played it pretty casually.

Maybe with the indie movement gaining steam (and resources), we can finally resurrect some genres that were dead. Y'know, like space sims. I'm still holding out for a CryTek space sim. I'm pretty sure the engine is flexible enough.

Re: Hawken (a game with Mechs!)
Already have one, I'd appreciate another or two:

Scotty is just a negative nancy.

It could be, say, like Armored Core with Gundammy robots flying everywhere pew pew pew shhh boom Itano Circus/Macross Missile Massacre with tons of Roboteching and middle fingers to physics and common sense abound.

Actually Armored Core isn't that bad about it, and I like Armored Core.

So instead I'll just go with what I think's best: play MWO and Hawken and Netmech and Armored Core.

CryEngine 3 should be able to do it.
I'd rather have a Descent-like game from one of the versions of CryEngine though, and it'd probably be easier to make.

Some people are like Slinkies.  They aren't really good or even useful for anything but they always manage to put a little smile on your face when you give them enough of a push down the stairs.
