After playing all the MW games, giant mechs, battles, weapons, upgrades, etc I mean it spawned at least 4 main games, expansion packs, then the mecg commander series, Im shcked there has never been a real full blown MMO based on this IP. |

Smith and Tinker now have the rights to all of the old Fasa interactive stuff now . Jordon Weisman started Fasa interactive, he then later went on to sell it to microsoft only to buy back the rights later. http://www.smithandtinker.com/news/smith-and-tinker-acquires-fasa-ips.php I think they are only doing flash/browser based games :(

If they ever do. Then it would bring renewed emphasis on the term 'Heal-Bot" |

A Mechwarrior MMO sounds pretty cool, I have to say though the best Mechwarrior of them all was definately the Mechwarrior 2 series (Mercenaries, Ghost Bears Legacy, and 31st Century Combat) . That was before Microsoft baught the mechwarrior franchise from Activision. Mechwarrior 3 was totally different then Mechwarrior 2, it was far less detailed and the storyline wasnt as deep. It would be pretty interesting though to see a Mechwarrior MMO, its somthing that has never been done before. |

I don't really care if it is mechwarrrior I just want to be able to play as my character avatar or in a vehicle, mech or battle car, and have an enjoyable combat experiance in both. (unlike Eve and Auto Assault) |
