    This is by far one of my all time favorite Arena FPS games. Most FPS games rely on twitchy COD mechanics to win whereas in Hawken, you actually have to use Strategy AND Teamwork to win.

    I won't lie and say the game isn't a bit glitchy. But that isn't surprising considering that the game is still in BETA. Please keep that in mind when you play.

    Happy Hunting Pilot!

    A blink-and-your-dead CoD clone disguised as a mech shooter. Interesting movement abilities, but crappy guns. Violently pay-to-win, and extremely grindy. It has some midly amusing cooperative modes but you could do better for coop elsewhere. Between this and the unforgivable mess that is Mechwarrior Online, there don't seem to be any quality mech games on PC. It's a shame, really.

    I guess I have to write this here. Steam's page is gone, game is died. I'm in quarantine and bored out of my mind. Why did you leave us HAWKEN? Why did you go? I wanted to blow people. Up.
    Not like the movie, where I lose my wife and have to spend time with some **** child and his talking dog. I've been foiled again by the lack of developer support. Death to Hawken, Long live Hawken.

    Hawken shows that piloting a mech doesn't have to be a complex task, and it gets players straight into the action. [Aug 2013, p.92]

    Very ambitious, but we’d urge them to concentrate on the game; with poor matchmaking, few maps, overly simple game modes and a limited free game, players might not stick around. And that would be a shame.
