Re: Is this a glitch?

Oh, sorry I took so long getting back to you. Stuff happened.

Well, the mission with Sho-sa Varus is "Blood-for-Blood" (mission 09 on your list) so it would be the two missions after it where I noticed the glitch.

I haven't yet tested to see if the patch fixes things.

Re: Is this a glitch?

I'll watch the video later (unfortunately I can't watch video any time I want). Anyway, I decided to install the 1.1 patch, so I've started over from the beginning and am gonna see if the game still behaves oddly. If it does, I'll try installing the DOS version and see what happens. (for the record,...

Is this a glitch?

Okay, here's the basics: My Mercs CD includes both the DOS and Windows versions. I installed the Windows one. I am running it on a Windows 98SE computer (700mhz, 512mb of RAM, Voodoo 3 grafx card, Soundblaster 16 soundcard), using a Mouse and Keyboard for control. I have NOT installed any patches or...

Re: other Mecha-themed games?

I think Mechwarrior 3050 actually IS the Genesis Battletech, just ported to the SNES.

I'd have to play both to be sure tho.

other Mecha-themed games?

I'm just wondering, how do people feel about the other Mechwarrior/Battletech games? Especially oddballs like Mechwarrior 3050 on the SNES?

Also, what other Mecha-themed games do you guys like? (I'm an Armored Core fan on the side).

Re: Really basic Newb question re: Weapons

... A friend of mine suggested that very thing earlier, as a joke. It does seem true though (although I've noticed future waves are placed in advance, which makes me think it might be winnable after all).

Re: Really basic Newb question re: Weapons

Thanks. This has improved things considerably!

Now I need to look up a beginner's strategy guide... I keep dying on Trials of Grievance (I usually take down about 6-7 enemies before getting killed though).

Really basic Newb question re: Weapons

So, I installed Mechwarrior 2 (IBM PC CD-ROM release), patched it, fixed the technical issues I was having (turned out the game was seeing a joystick I didn't have. Once I disabled the joystick, it stopped crashing), and now I'm playing the game. I'm wondering something. When you fire weapons, is th...

Re: MW2 weird issues in pure DOS environ

GBL is Win95, and I wasn't aware of a DOS-patch for it. These issues persist even when GBL is not installed, and when I'm playing the core game. I'm beginning to think it might be my computer at fault, not the game itself. EDIT: All issues resolved. For the sake of future reference... Well, what it ...

MW2 weird issues in pure DOS environ

Okay, first thing I want to establish is that I'm using an actual old comp to play Mechwarrior 2. I checked the version I own on the version comparison's chart. I have the version 1.0 IBM CD-ROM version. I have the graphical details all set to high, and chunky explosions on. The first time I played ...
