The Atlas here is the old Star League AS7-D variant. This one has no large lasers in the arms, only four meds, an AC-20, an LRM-20 and a SRM-6. It's not the newer AS7-K with large lasers in the arm and med pulses in the torso, not the one which is the popular "default" Atlas config in MW4. Hope it clears things up somewhat ENJOY!

The atlas was probably the old Atlas AS7-D 4 medium lasers (2 to the rear), SRM 6, LRM 20, and AC 20. The LRMs have minimum range and can not be fired close. Which is why you dont see much missile fire. The AC seemed to fired as 4 vollies instead of one volley. The Warhammer is an unseen and should have won, since he was using cover effectively, but he got anxious when the Atlas overheated and did not go near cover and backed off far enough for the LRMs to get the lock and hit.

I think the issue here is that this trailer was not MWO it was from Mechwarrior 5 that was already in development at that time (2009) but was subsequently scrapped when no publisher would pick it up. Now why PGI reposted it as MWO is a mystery but maybe at the time they had nothing ready to show for MWO but still wanted or had to put something out so they threw this out.

Not gonna lie, when the dust cleared after the first mech went down, I could feel every muscle in my back reactively tighten when I realized the dude just bumped into an atlas. The first mechwarrior game I've ever played was MW3 on my uncle's old PC over 10 years ago. The only Mechwarrior game I've ever owned was a spin off title on the original Xbox, called Mech Assault. For both games, I was always the most tense whenever I knew there was an enemy heavy mech around, especially the atlas.

All things given, setting off a nuclear blast in a warzone your forces are in operation in, as well as nearby the local administration that you are attempting to save, or nearby resources you wish to claim, is a terrible idea. Mechs are powered with Fusion reactors, meaning you're in a walking H-Bomb. It makes more sense to have the entire Mech shut itself down when the engine takes a certain amount of damage, but before actual breach, so that you don't go nuclear on a battlefield.

They argue this includes RPGs and computer games. FASA and company of course argue they are separate business sectors and thus HG's rights don't apply. So we have years of legal tussles as a result.

Also, this game was supposed to be set in the year 3015 and include a single-player campaign, whereas Mechwarrior: Online is set in 3050 and has no single-player announced.

Holy crap you all are looking wayyyy too much into this video. It was just a video to show the new game they were making, not to make you all go so far as to speculate which variant of MW they were using and if they were in a previous battle, and if the guy was over 45 years old, or if his grandmother had just died and now he's emotional about it...

Yeah...you are totally wrong. see top comment. the "mod" you are talking about is MWLL, which is a Total Conversion for Crysis. Piranha was originally going to make MW REBOOT(!) but they felt a Single player campaign was too limiting. so they decided to turn it into MWO. And...Yeah. Piranha owns full rights to BattleTech IP, so it is completely official.

MW5 got, in a way "scrapped", but at the same time they changed it into MWO. The reason is they got sued do to using an "unreleased" (I believe) Mech in the trailer. So they got the license and resumed production as MWO. The site is mwomercs(dot)com if you want to check for yourself, and feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.

Well, I'm glad to inform you that the game has been beaten into a shape which is barely recognizable by the new masters. They even want to implement mechs under different names now. The new "flea" looks exactly like a locust. (guess which "name mech") was more popular (all that micro transaction money.)

The reason it looks so different is because all the shit from this video is from development prior to going with CryEngine3. I don't know what engine they were doing this initial development with, but it features destructible environments, so Refractor2 maybe?

What the fuck are you talking about? MechWarrior Online is an official game made by a full professional dev team, not a group of modders. And why would a dev team make a trailer for a game in 2009 that they didn't have the rights to develop? Just think about that for a second.

Did the developers HAVE to use a Warhammer for this? Literally DOZENS of mechs of roughly equivalent power, period-appropriateness and coolness they could have used instead and they had to screw themselves over by selecting one of the Unseen instead. Sheesh...

The weapons in this game are blatantly broken. I've had Dakkamechs(Jagermechs with nothing but MG's)rape the shit out of my Centurion at point blank with me pouring four med-lasers and an SRM 4 and SRM 6 combo into them non-stop from full health each.

Actually the locust is a real mech, alongside the flea. So that mech hasn't been implemented under a different name. Head to sarna.net (the battletech wiki) and look up locust and flea as it won't seem to let me post both links here :/

It's still an Unseen, so it's doubtful its image will ever appear in a Battletech game. I think that the reason there was such a long silence after this trailer was released was because they got into some legal trouble over the Warhammer.

Because this is the video they released before they actually started developing the game. I doubt destructable terrain would be useful in a MW game anyway. Personally I'd just flatten the city with LRMs so the rest of my team could have good LOS every game.

I don't suppose we'll ever get another PVE MechWarrior game with a storyline and whatnot. its like theres a void in my being that will never truly be filled without a modern game like this. (MWO is fun, yes, but its an arcade version of the verse with no story. heck, you never even hear your pilot say anything.)

basicly, the developers of mechwarrior 5 couldn't get permission to actually create the game, so abandoned it in 2009, but now some modders have got together to make mech Warrior online, but its gunna be unofficial

@MauserK43 The game's timeline is 1:1. 2012 = 3049, 2013 = 3050. If that holds true then the Clans should invade around August but it may be pushed back a month or two depending on the release date.

Sadly the 3rd person camera is utterly useless in combat, making the only reason to use it being to spy overhead without exposing yourself. Though so long as we have a rising threshold system, MWO will be 'twitch' in the sense that Alpha strikes are everything even in the face of "Heat Scale," a tactic that would never be necessary with the 30 threshold of MW3, Battletech 1993 sim, Battletech 1989, and the original MW2 (ones after got 40 for an arcade feel). Trials have 40. I've got 88.56 thres

I believe that Harmony Gold is still around. I heard about a lawsuit which resulted in Mechwarrior turning into a free to play game. Harmony Gold may not be producing NEW robotech material, but they still own it nonetheless and thus still own and control the designs :/ its a shame since the original warhammer is one of my most favorite designs, same with the marauder and that's a robotech design too

So going back to when FASA existed.. The thing about the Warhammer was that it was never FASA's design, it was a Tomahawk destroid from Robotech/Macross FASA borred a lot of designs from Robotech and at some point, they had to issue re-sculpts of those borrowed designs (explaining why no warhammer model outside of the original starter set looks like the one in the trailer) Piranha Games doesn't have the permission to use those battletech designs. I believe that's why there was a lawsuit

I'm glad this is going to be free to play on the PC, but part of me wishes that the company wouldn't get sued for the use of the Warhammer mech, if that was the case then the game could have released on consoles in addition to the PC (which I think was the original intent) I can't say how much it would have been for my friends and I to play this on our Xbox's with headsets. But alas, I'm the only friend with a decent gaming computer so that means I'll have to make more friends online
