will have to keep an eye on this... hmm...

there was an article on this in PC Gamer a few months back, before BF2 had actually been released. Looks promising for the mechheads amongst us.

i remember a post about it. it might of been you that posted it not sure... but i thought it was for another battlefields? anyhow man... i hope so...

now does that game support joysticks or is it strictly a keyboard + mouse control? (just when i thought i was getting out... they pull me back in!!)

BF2 can use any controller you connect to your PC...

DAMN YOU BH FOR BRINGING THIS TO MY ATTENTION!!! lol

LOL warcry...

well the mod isnt done yet. so you still have some time to devote to RL ;)


in fact they dont even have models or a website up yet. so i assume there will be some time before it comes to be, if ever.. but on the other hand, if this thing flys and looks and feels good, im SOOOO THERE!

I have seen models...and they did have a website with some renders etc, but i guess they're redoing the site.....sorry warcry

yes - i saw that stuff a couple of months ago too...

they have changed it since...

H m m m m . . I think I might get sucked-in here. Maybe . . . . .

i'm still waiting on a MW game that has all the elements to it: infantry, elementals, mechs, vehicles. eventually they will make one. i just hope i still have the reflexes by that time. ***catches fly with index finger and thumb***

Not MW, but MM! MegaMek, that is. :mrgreen:

TD

only problem is that is turn based, right?

i definitely prefer real time, and i prefer 3d such as piloting a mech, and being a infantryman...

you know my dream game is a massive online battletech based game. with infantry, tanks, LRM/SRM launchers, mechs, etc...

Planetside was an interesting game due to how it was setup. you could configure your certs for basic foot soilder to base attacking, to tank driver, BFR pilot ( its like a big mech) to even aircraft pilots. you have medics, advanced hackers, to engineers. i CANT believe that the battle tech guys didnt thing of setting something up like this! i paid 13.00 a month to play planetside and would GLADLY pay to play a Btech based game like this. i mean realy can you imagine being infantry running around with big hulking mechs running around lol. would be a hoot

anyhow back to reality.

im more like you steel. i like hands on stuff. usualy something that requires a little skill to seperate the ok players from the realy GOOD players. not just the amount of money you have and what weapons your packing.

i could be wrong, but i think this mod is what u guys are looking for. It makes sense after all, as BF2 has all the components for infantry and standard type armoured vehicles. I did hear tell that elementals would feature as well. Don't quote me on this, as it's just stuff i think i remember reading in the article.

damn i feel all tingly inside!!

just visited the Battletech Mod Production web site and found this about the BF2 mod.. ( http://www.battletechmodproductions.com/ )

New MTS domain
I've gotten tons of emails these last few months asking for the status of MTS - Mech Tactical Simulation, our Battlefield 2 total conversion mod. Some have concerned the lack of updates, but most have been due to the lack of website.

Yes, the website has been offline for a few months now, but the mod is still being actively developed, a bit slow due to real life contraints, but it's far from dead, nor will it die.

We have a new web address at http://www.mts-mod.net , so be sure to update your bookmarks. Currently only the launch page is available, but now that i am back from vacation we will finally proceed to revamp and relaunch the website, so stay tuned for further info on this.
In the meantime, register and check out our forum, we are always around, and sometimes show some work being done. The latest around there is the Clan Black Lanner 55-ton OmniMech, modelled by Corsair.

so defently worth looking forward to updates.

hmm not sure if it was me or what, but the first link i put up with this post now has another page linked to it. just click on the big mech, it opens to a flash site. they even have some screen shots up, however for some reason the full size pictures dont work.. but the thumbs look cool!

yep - fouund that out last night...

I'll keep my eye on this forum to see what you guys are doing or going to do with this. But I could be interested.
