    Pretty interesting looking game. Might be fun once it comes out.

    looks pretty badass, even better then that new mechwarrior that they announced over a year ago.

    So are there going to be unlocks and such?

    Looks impressive. I wish video games didn't resort to using Junktown settings, but what can ya do.

    looks cool..loved me some mechwarrior,even with the hackers trying to ruin the fun.

    looked more industrial than junk town...but I know what ya mean.

    I agree, I haven't played a good mech game, imo, since Heavy Gear 2 - which I played competitively.

    This looks somewhat promising, graphically anyway.

    One and a half week necromancy.

    They've got a good engine there, mech animations have no weight to them and they seem to skip a lot but it looks great so far as indie games go. There really aren't many mech games around with a player base anymore.

    I do wish people would stop misappropriating Greek and Cyrillic letters though. Perhaps I'll just call it Nashchkei.

    Looks like it could be good. I would like to see some destructible environments.

    This reminds me a lot more of Cyberstrike from WAAAYYYYY back in the day. This is a good thing.
