MechWarrior 2: Resource Forum

After pondering about the trailer for a while now, I have noticed some things that greatly concern me about this game.

Health bar- During the fight a display of the Warhammer's condition pops up, I did not see any red/yellow/green shaded sections, and I believe I saw a percentage health bar at the ...

Well it is MechWARRIOR, not mechassault. We should get more details at midnight.

Lets just all hope this game turns out better than mech4 and doesn't get dumbed down to fit the controls to a game pad (should it be multi-platform). From the review I saw of their recent transformers game, (6/10-ign ...

IGN has an article with currently 3 different short (very) that is hinting at a mech game. Mechs look like battletech to me. This could either be a Mechassault 3, mechcommander 3 (has followed other mechwarrior games in the past, 3 and 4, so its not likely), or Mech5.

Alrighty, thanks for the clarification on the PLR.mek files. Pretty obvious that the MW2Reg.cfg is it once you look inside...yet I couldn't find it; I knew it was going to be like that.

Does anyone know where/what file(s) is responsible for profiles? I'm confident the MEK folder has all created mech varients. I'm guessing that the drw[XX]PLR.mek files are for profiles, but that doesn't seem right since drw could stand for Dire Wolf. I'd test this myself but I won't have access to ...

Just wanted to point out that the "mech exceeds keshisk maximum" message is supposed to be from using a mech chassis more then the amount listed at the top of the screen at the mech lab, has nothing to do with the custom weight. (a Direwolf weighing 65Tons won't be allowed on a 65Ton max mission ...

Well, I haven't touched my titanium mercs in a long time, just 31st DOS recently. Thanks for the offer, but if I wanted that I could just strip away all the armor.

Gotta say though the two worst things about Titanium is that weapon fire doesn't work the way it should half of the time (hitting ...

This looks really cool and I haven't seen this before. Although since they have been working on this for 12 years and that was back with the early N64 days, you would think they should have released some kind of Duke Nukem game between then and now.

When it comes to aiming is seems like it. When I played mercs I would always use nothing but the commando until you have the chance to salvage the first catapult. Never lost more than half my armor on any body part because I would straff every target and use jump jets to out run the LRMs ability to ...

I first got into BT with the original DOS version of MW2 released, since then I have been an huge fan of the MW games.
Anyways, played GBL and Mecrs about 7ish years back (titanium version sadly), and started playing my DOS MW2 recently. I noticed that I am not able to avoid fire by just straffing ...
