Rusty_M Posted June 5, 2011 Posted June 5, 2011 I know it's not a sim or a game in its own right, but I just stumbled across this recently. From what I can tell it seems well regarded by those who like the MW series. I always wanted to get into it but never had the hardware at the time. I've only played living legends for about 30 mins, and I don't know what I'm doing, but I really think this mod has a lot to offer. Thoughs? http://www.mechlivinglegends.net/ The world is going mad.

Yskonyn Posted June 5, 2011 Posted June 5, 2011 Yes it's been developed by some serious Battletech enthousiasts! I don't own Crysis so I havent been able to check out the mod yet. I am a huge MW fan though, and with the new MW game having dropped below the radar, this is closest we get to a modern iteration of a MW game for now...

Rusty_M Posted June 5, 2011 Author Posted June 5, 2011 (edited) Crysis is frequently reduced on Steam, and probably cheap elsewhere. The mod seems pretty stable.

WynnTTr Posted June 6, 2011 Posted June 6, 2011 The only major hurdle stopping me is the inability to use footpedals and HOTAS without resorting to something like PPJOY or something else. I think it's Crysis that only recognises the one joystick. Plus I'm a bit over just playing mech quake. Wish they'd release a story driven campaign like in the early MW series. You start out with a pissy Locust/Jenner and work your way up. Ah the memories.
Rusty_M Posted June 8, 2011 Author Posted June 8, 2011 Would've loved to, but that was at 2:45 am where I live :) The world is going mad. Me? I'm doing fine! http://www.twitch.tv/rusty_the_robot https://www.youtube.com/user/RustyRobotGaming
Shaman Posted June 8, 2011 Posted June 8, 2011 I have received Crysis 1 for free when I have purchased Crysis 2. I always loved MW2 game! How does this mod compare to Mech Warrior 2 and 3 gameplay?

Rusty_M Posted June 8, 2011 Author Posted June 8, 2011 I can't answer that. Never played MW2. PC couldn't handle the 50MB HD space for starters! Stupid 486 that it was! The world is going mad. Me? I'm doing fine! http://www.twitch.tv/rusty_the_robot https://www.youtube.com/user/RustyRobotGaming
Yskonyn Posted June 9, 2011 Posted June 9, 2011 Hah the memories! I got MW 2 and its expansion packs, but only got to play it a few years after release, because just like Rusty my PC wasn't up to it. :P I still have all the manuals right here. Those were the days where games came with nice big manuals full of fluff and background info. Anyway, I can't comment either, because I do not have Crysis WH, and therefore never played Living Legends.

Rusty_M Posted June 9, 2011 Author Posted June 9, 2011 It seems your only solution is to download the mod and jump in. Also Crysis wars is often dirt cheap these days. Living Legends is currently MP only, but I like the gameplay. I'd check their forums to see which original game the gameplay is closest to. The world is going mad. Me?

Yskonyn Posted June 9, 2011 Posted June 9, 2011 Yeah, but I have so many games to play and so little time.... :S [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Asus Z390-E, 32GB Crucial Ballistix 2400Mhz, Intel i7 9700K 5.0Ghz, Asus GTX1080 8GB, SoundBlaster AE-5, G15, Streamdeck, DSD Flight, TM Warthog, VirPil BRD, MFG Crosswind CAM5, TrackIR 5, KW-908 Jetseat, Win 10 64-bit ”Pilots do not get paid for what they do daily, but they get paid for what they are capable of doing.
