MechWarrior 2: Resource Forum

Hey everybody! Great I found out about this site, this is neat.

I first came across this site when I was rubbernecking at what my older brother was doing online. Turns out he's been spending some lunch breaks on this site for a while.

I have been a fan of MechWarrior for... i dunno, about 5 years or so. What caught my eye about this cool game back then was the action and explosions and life put in it. One day I got to play it on our family's computer, and I loved it!

I don't know why so many people I know keep saying the old games are "obsolete", this one... it stands firm even through a whole decade! But many days I feel like playing this age old game more often than my games for xbox.
Unlike many other games that have been made, MW2 has this... something to it that makes me want to play it over and over again, even though I mastered it lots of times. It just doesn't get boring!

But this place looks like fun. I'm glad I snooped!

Don't forget now, "Slavick", that I let you use my email to register. Had I not, you wouldn't be on here as a member. You must be in awe of my generosity.

Welcome Slavick!

Hope you enjoy your stay as much as the other Kells.

Have fun!

Welcome Slavic!

I agree with your statement 100%.
I think the reason for it is the amount of realism and depth that is put into MW2. Feels like you're actually being a part of that universe. The immense storyline and history of Battletech is what draws me to it.

Hope to see you here very often

A warm welcome...

Yes, I have to agree with you infraredcentipede, that must have been what drawed me into the game. The storyline, the realism...
Now about this site, this is great! I didn't know there were so many downloads for mechwarrior 2 and mercs, I always am looking to add on to a great experience, if only I can try them all...

But I don't see any new maps in the downloads, I often see my brother playing missions I've never seen in the normal game. Are there new levels somewhere on here? Am I overlooking anything?

Welcome again Slavick!

Well Col.Kell designs maps no one has.
But for mercs maps downloads you can get them at http://mitglied.lycos.de/wuh/depot.html, but I believe Myg included them in his new mercnet package already.

You know all those times I am on my bed near midnight with my laptop? Think of me as Dr. Frankinstein; an evil genius working on things hidden from the world...

But those "missions" you saw, all those are were just experimentations on mission objectives. ...If I was going to make new mission tables, I was at least going to make it look like a new mission while I was at it.

If you must insist on new missions, I can show you how to use a hex editor or Skyfaller's cool program "MechVM", and you can "install" my trial of grievance missions.
Or for mercs, I've got some missions I downloaded from sarna.net, I can put them in your missions directory.

Well it's about time there were some different missions. Cool stuff.

Hi, I'm new here - I'm not big fan of the Battletech universe but love Mechwarrior2.
I remember playing round my friends house when I was 10 or 12 and occassionally thought about this amazing game until I purchased the softkey version of it a year ago on ebay.
I knew nothing about the compatability of win95 games and my attempts were futile installing it.
That is until I found Sir MMPDs vid on youtube! Thank you so much for reviving this much cherrished childhood experience!

yw Omar, and Welcome!
I hope you join us for multiplayer! We have netmech presetup in the download section if you are interested.
