Perfect but rough around the edges

There's a lot to like about Battletech. Building up your mercenary company, upgrading your ship, salvaging new Mechs, the list goes on. The campaign is fantastic and any expansion that might be released is an instant buy for me. Both the story and the actual missions were great. It's been a very long time since I've played a strategy game with a campaign I was this invested in. Some of the missions came down to the wire and from watching streams, I know I'm not the only one that happened to. Fiddling with your mechs is fun, too, if you're into that sort of thing. If you don't like trying to find the best loadout for your giant robot, this might not be the game for you. Depending on how you play, you'll get anywhere between 40 and 80+ hours out of a run, well worth the price of admission, if you ask me. Now, the game does have some flaws, but considering everything it gets right and how few games of this genre exist, I am more than willing to forgive them. For one, there's performance. No two ways about it, performance isn't great. Mostly, this concerns load time between missions, but it's still annoying. Then, there's some balance issues. Mechs, weapons and skills are not as diverse as they could be. Some are objectively better than others, which is a bit unfortunate. In contrast to previous Mechwarrior and Mech Commander games, there's even less reasons to bring light mechs and some of the simplifications make certain weapons largely obsolete. Those are minor nitpicks, in the grand scheme of things, though. Still, the game has me making meaningful decisions all the time which is more than can be said of most current games. Do I want more money or a bigger cut of the salvage? Do I want to try and take this enemy mech out leaving it mostly intact so I can salvage it or does it need to die right here, right now and who cares how much it explodes? Do I eject this pilot who's almost dead or does she have to stay and fight? Long story short, I recommend this game.

Deserves more credit

The game is not perfect (what game is?). There are a few 'issues', but none that I have personally noticed that are game-breaking. Most of the complaints I have read are LARGELY avoidable or fixable (future patch). Unfortunately it may not be so intuitive to the every-day computer game person to make the most of their experience by tweaking some settings. TECHNICAL ISSUES: For example, there are some performance issues. If not using an SSD the load times can be a bit annoying- we're talking console annoying. The game will OCCASIONALLY drop many frames- the instances are very specific though. Turn changes, etc. The stories about cooking GPU's are because people turn on "High Quality UI" and don't cap FPS. The visual difference is negligible and for most not even noticeable, but the performance hit is ridiculously stupid. The visual quality is NOT 2007/8. The environments and mechs are VERY detailed.... but unfortunately difficult to see (zoom)- so it doesn't do itself justice. If you take the opportunity to look closely it's there. I have never lost any saves or had any CTD's. The game has been stable (as can be using Unity). It does get a little 'sluggish' after 5-6 hours of continuous play, but that's it. Restart game. GAME-DESIGN It's a fun game. There's no question. I have never engaged in the tabletop version: I come from a love of Mechwarrior games from the early 90's onwards. I also have a soft spot for tactical games like XCOM, Fallout Tactics, etc. Sure you can't move the camera around during a turn animation. Sometimes the missions are a little 'samey'. But the gameplay (combat) is never-the-less satisfying. Earning money and salvage is gratifying. Story ark: decent. Plus, keeping your own mercenary company running, outfitting your lances, etc, it's addicting, it's fun. If you like Mechwarrior and XCOM, you'll enjoy this. No question. Technical issues (mostly) get patched. Don't be afraid. Try it yourself.

Needs improvement, so far so good.

I go by the great, good, bad scale of grades, where great is just a fundamentally great game that has very little flaws and the pros outweigh the cons by a longshot. Good is that it's still an enjoyable game but it has it's flaws that can either turn people on or off, and bad is that pretty much everyone will recognise the pile of garbage that a game can potentially be. This game is Good, with a potential of sliding either into bad, or great in the directions they'll push the game to. With the first update that should drop in June/July, I feel as though they're going to make progress into turning this game into something great, as the turn-based gameplay will have a speedup option, alongside optimizations--as the one major flaw this game suffers at the moment is that you can recognise that this game probably needed an extra month or two to smooth out a lot of things. I feel with the content that BATTLETECH has to offer, at the moment if they keep their hands tight on what they want this game to be, then there is almost an infinite amount of room to expand in a lot of different directions when it comes to DLC and the battletech universe. However going onto gameplay, it's fun, it's basically X-COM minus the overwatch button which is instead replaced by reserving a turn for the next round (which is something I still gotta figure out as they don't do too much explaining). You might need to restart the campaign at least once as it's easy to progress through the story until you realize the handicaps, when a mech is destroyed/crippled in a mission, it can take up to 4 months for both your mech and it's pilot to recooperate while you're only floating on 200,000 credits which are eaten up by monthly debts (which average out early game to be about 100-200k). This means that early game, you can go broke really easily without the game holding your hand telling you what not to do. All n' all, it needs improvements. Good game, with potential to expand into something great.

Solid game that needs a better tutorial

I've never played the Battletech tabletop games, but I've read many of the books and played a lot of the classic Mechwarrior games, both the action oriented titles by Activision and the turn based Mech Commander series. I've never enjoyed the "tweaking" and building of mechs, but always enjoyed playing. I hadn't seen this on KickStarter, but when I read about, I decided to give it a shot. I purchased the title prelaunch on GoG, getting ShadowRun Returns as a pre-order bonus. I'm running the game on a 2017 15" Macbook Pro, both in native mode (OSX) and also tried in BootCamp under Windows 10. I have a fairly capable machine, though its not a gaming laptop by any means. I run the game in 1080p at "HIGH" and it runs well on OSX. I'm sure it would perform better in Windows but I can't be bothered to reboot every time I want to play. Its good enough that I am not motivated to do so, which I think is a good accomplishment for any game. The actual gameplay took some getting used to, and other than the real basics of movement, sensor locking, and attacking, the game really doesn't teach you the differences between energy weapons, missle weapons, ballistic weapons (ie autocannons) and support weapons with any rigor. It doesn't raelly teach you about armor and positioning, or about recon. The tutorial does the bare basics on teaching you the mechanics, without teaching you anything about how to really succeed in the game. The same goes for actually managing the economics as a mercenary, which is vital, nor about navigating around the galaxy - I played for a month before I realized I could actually choose where to go on the map and not just from the missions screen! I actually learned how to succeed by watching YouTube videos - thanks streamers! The gameplay itself is pretty good. Once I've learned how to play, the game has been solid. Not sure why people are having problems, but I haven't had any crashes or glitches whatsoever. Good job HBS!

I've wanted to enjoy it but it's boring

I've really wanted to enjoy this game, but it's a big too slow for me - maybe I've expected it to be more like Mech Commander 1 & 2 like game (real-time instead of turn-based) but I don't know. The graphics are astonishing, I really wish there was a mod that would introduce real-time gameplay to fully like it.
