    Huge fan of the original/gold version. MC2 was a serious let down, the computers AI has serious flaws FIX this, and the game gets a 9.5.

    MechCommander 2 is just another example of what makes the BattleTech series so great. takes all the great parts of MechWarrior and throws them into a StarCraft-esque game that has explosions, death, and more. it more than deserves a place in your game library.

    Actually I'd give it an 8.5. Good graphics...but it got kind of confusing with the mouse and all and the changing POV's. But still it was a very good game. Addicting, too.

    Great game, this is exaclty what I wanted to first game to be. Sharp, 3d graphics, great and easy to understand mech customization. Only thing I would add is a skermish mode, wich would make it very nearly 10.

    Fantastic game. Mechcommander was (is) good, and the sequel is actually better. Graphically it's everything it needs to be, gameplay-wise there's notable differences between the mechs and huge flexibility in how you approach each level and objective. Personally I'd give it an 8.5, but 9 will do. Recommended.

    This sequel of MechCommander Gold game takes everything good from the original and replaces 2D graphics with 3D graphics. Although it looks much better than the first game, it still plays pretty much the same. It's a good RTS game where you need to complete missions with a few mechs under your command. You equip mechs with weapons, mechs have weapon slots, and there is a weight limit forThis sequel of MechCommander Gold game takes everything good from the original and replaces 2D graphics with 3D graphics.

You equip mechs with weapons, mechs have weapon slots, and there is a weight limit for each mission, which allows different approaches depending on your tastes. If you still can get this game somewhere, try it out - it's pretty fun.… Expand

    Тактика с участием группы ОБЧР из известной вселенной Battletech, исполненная в 3D изометрии, все на достойном уровне.

    While some details such as heat management and precise targeting have been glossed over a mite heavily for BattleTech fans' tastes, overall Mech Commander 2 bestows a new lease on life upon the esteemed franchise.

    A technically polished title which made amends for all of the flaws the original game had, yet which is still far from appealing or capable of holding gamers' attention, and I'm speaking even of the hard-core BattleTech fans.
