    Giant robots (Battle Mech's) are awesome.

    Battletech lore is awesome. If you want to auto win buy “Clan” Mechs. Twice or three times the fire power for the same size. If you want to auto win with “Inner Sphere” buy light mech with the biggest engines. Go fast. No lie, the smallest mechs can’t be hit because of hit box and latency issues. So at the end of most matches Inner Sphere    Giant robots (Battle Mech's) are awesome.

So at the end of most matches Inner Sphere light mechs usually do the most damage, it’s just silly. Some light mech pilots have gotten so blatant about it that they latterly stop moving and just stand there in front of you shooting, knowing that the hit box bug will protect them, and 80% of the time it does.

    No balance.

    Not enough maps.

    It is a good game- there is a lot of hate right now towards PGI/IGP- but that has no impact on the game. No CW yet- but the actual gameplay is pretty solid and the recent interviews/future content given by PGI makes the future look bright.

    There has been a concerted effort by a very vocal minority to make the worst pub of the communication issues from PGI. While I can understand some of it, their interest in sabotaging the success of the game is sad. If a game can keep my interest for a year or longer, especially one that I voluntarily pay extra just for fluff, it is definitely a good game. Why have people invested so heavily in this game while it was in Beta? Because it is amazing! Requesting your money back a year later because they put 3PV (3rd point of view)? Very lame.    … Expand

    Mechwarrior Online is a multiplayer giant robot 1st/3rd person combat game set in the Battletech scifi universe.

    I like this game, it gets the Mech part right. Right now the game suffers from lack of content, there is only a handful of maps to play on and the battles tend to play out in predictable patterns so you can get bored at times, also their netcode is a bit buggy and not all shots get registered atm.

    In the game environment cannot be destroyed at all, you bounce off buildings without making a dent and walk through trees like they are holograms instead of real objects, this is a real shame as most new players expect these features when they start playing a game about giant stompy robots.

    Still the game is free to play, so give it a shot you lose nothing by trying it out and as I said, I like this game even with all it's shortcomings.    … Expand

    A truly unique first person shooter, that unfortunately producers promised more than they delivered, but that shouldn't take away from what the game is.

Unlike many FPS's there are no respawns, making you think be for you just run into battle, or else you are going to just be spectating. This is further reinforced as the Mech you entered into the match with is locked until the match finishes. I also enjoy that location based damage is very important to pay attention to. You can kill a Mech pretty easily if you take out the right part, but a good pilot can mitigate this. Also proper use of your team is essential, something too many other games fail to do. You can do very well as a single player, but you can only carry your team so far. I have never seen one mech win a match all by themselves, sure they may have done 1000 damage and got most of the kills, but without the team working with them, they would have never had the chance to do it.

    For a F2P game I would say it has a pretty good model. There are a few mechs that you have to spend real money to get, but for the most part they are just different not better, so you don't feel its pay to win. One exception to this is they roll the new Mechs out as first purchasable with real money then after a certain amount of time they become purchasable with in game currency. Some people will say it is grindy but the only thing you do to get money in game is play the game, no minigames or other gibberish so I can't really call it a grind. However, even though this is a skill based game, there are upgrades to your mech you have to earn through play, aside from the loadouts like weapons and engines. Getting your initial Mech setup can be a bit of a drag.

    Some negatives would be the lack of game modes (though they are adding more in the near future) The map selection is pretty weak, they often over correct while trying to balance aspects of the game, matchmaking is still a work in progress, and my biggest gripe is the lack of built in voice chat (again something they say they are working on)

    Overall if you like Mechs and FPS's you should check this out. Starting isn't easy, but work with your team and ask questions. Most people are very friendly, and happy to help you out. Finding a mech that works for you is important, as just getting the biggest Mech isn't going to guarantee you success (in fact I find the Assaults are much more difficult to pilot starting out)    … Expand

    As of Sept 2013, core gameplay (that is, the actual fighting part) is solid, immersive, and fun. Promised meta based around that gameplay (factions, lobbies, etc) has been delayed and is definitely lacking. However, IF you take the game that we have at this minute, discounting what may or may not be added in the future, you still have a great experience.

Other games have their detractors but have very little effect on the game reviews, in PGI's case with MWO, they are experiencing a backlash from their poor PR skills. As far back as Oct 2012 in closed beta, there were many vocal members pointing out all of the shortfalls which are being highlighted now by professional reviewers such as poor initial game experience and a longer grinding experience compared to other games. PGI unfortunately belittled them through posts on their forums, twitter, FB and in podcasts (yeah it wasn't just a one time careless comment) essentially telling them to off. While some of the negative reviews can be taken word for word, others are simply a vindictive backlash. There are plans to introduce a more immersive experience but no solid dates have been given.    … Expand

    While it would be white-washing to say that the game is without issues (as all new games are), it is clear from reading many of the reviews that a lot of the people who are slagging the game are disenfranchised individuals who take their dislike of a certain design feature or the unavailability of a feature at launch to mean that they can (and should) call the game garbage. This is,While it would be white-washing to say that the game is without issues (as all new games are), it is clear from reading many of the reviews that a lot of the people who are slagging the game are disenfranchised individuals who take their dislike of a certain design feature or the unavailability of a feature at launch to mean that they can (and should) call the game garbage. This is, unfortunately, very characteristic of the entitled attitude that many gamers have.

    Shortly before launch, two things happened; a feature that the developers had stated quite some time ago would not be used was in fact put in game (and as of writing this is no longer in any meaningful matches), and Community Warfare (the 'meat and bones') was post-poned. Both were disappointing issues, but understandable on both counts; regarding the first issue of the suddenly-implanted feature, design paradigms change for any product, and it was still Beta; at actual launch, the feature was relegated to 'casual only' games, not true competition. Regarding post-poning Community Warfare, it's only to be expected that a F2P title with a limited budget may have to push a feature back awhile.

    Neither occurrence should be reason to slag the game in horrible ways, but the spite of internet warriors is indeed legendary. I would urge anyone who comes here for advice on what to play to take a good, hard look at what one is reading, and if it looks hyper-negative, to disregard it.

    Fundamentally, MW:O is a Free-to-Play title. Free. As in it does not cost most players a single penny. If this game had been released and/or published by a company like Blizzard-Activision, Microsoft, or even Electronic Arts, I would say that a number of criticisms were fair. As it is, it is a free-to-play title from a minor studio who built a functional and stable game in only two years on a very small budget. Their entire development team wouldn't even fill a single section at any major developer. Perspective goes a long, long way towards affecting how one should see things, and I think that some people simple forget to put this company and this title in said perspective.

    Game Play: Superb. The game has been stable for most players for quite a long time. There are terrain bugs at times, and as with any PvP game, weapons and equipment balance is always in flux; if there are complaints about PvP in games like World of Warcraft, with a decade of development under its belt and billions of dollars to command, it should surprise nobody that MW:O has its own issues. For the most part, though, the game plays well; it feels like you are in command of a giant machine, not like you are some faceless solider in a Call of Duty clone.

    Graphics: Rendered on the Cry Engine, the game looks as one would expect very, very good. DX11 is in the pipe for testing and should only increase the magnitude of what we already see, which is fluid movement, gorgeous lighting, beautifully rendered 'mechs, and a very 'to scale' impression of combat.

    Sound: The effects are brilliant, and especially with headphones or with a good surround-sound system, one feels very much like one is in the of a machine. The only failing is the lack of music. Trailers for the game and trailers for special 'money only' BattleMechs have featured some fantastic music, all original compositions, but none is in the game... yet.

    Overall: If you're a BattleTech or MechWarrior fan, this is worth it. If you're a Call of Duty-style gamer, this is not your kind of game. If you want to play something that requires team-work, something that is far (FAR) more complex and challenging that your standard FPS game, and something that has a bright future in the form of dynamic and meaningful results from battles, MW:O is a great title to get onboard with. It's not all here yet, but it's getting there.    … Expand

(i had the misfortune of not learning about the game until i couldn't get the founders pacl! >.< ) i first joined up with a casual group that was part of a few competitions and i loved it but casual play got dry over time, and after a good 6 months the group had a falling out and went casual only. i have sense joined another group and am highly competitive and am proud to have put ruffly 800 dollars into the game and i play it every day.

    the game has a great structure but suffers from a bad match making system as does all games. you defiantly need to have at least a little intelligence, COD players are a joke among the community and if your "competitive experience" is battlefield, you wont do well.

    =====community warfare has a set date=====

    yes community warfare will be out soon, but its small compared to all the competitions that are going on now. if you want to up your game join a comp group plain and simple, look into good builds toy around. people who think only for them selves here suck.

    i have never had a day where i didn't want to play but i have become frustrated and i have become angry. but i learn to roll with the punches

    hope this helps, and quit being so butt-hurt everyone. complaining on the Internet never got anyone anywhere :)    … Expand

    The game has gone through many problems, a period of total pay-2-win, but what is the game currently? It's a battletech deathmatch simulator with micro (and not so micro) transactions. Combat is good, prices are high, and the grind is long - but there is fun to be had.

    Nice gameplay and deep strategy for the latest incarnation of Mechwarrior. Too bad it lacks any kind of Single Player content.

    Slightly overpriced, but a more than worthy successor to one of PC gaming’s greatest franchises that nails the important part: combat.

    MechWarrior Online does a pretty good job in balancing out the gameplay and gives you lots of BattleMechs, weapons and items to buy, but it's got only two game modes and it's definitely not that fun.
