BATTLETECH - Digital Deluxe Content

Honestly inability to correctly tell the real difficulty of the missions is taking all my fun away. I can't properly prepare my team for the mission. I feel cheated and when i get jumped by 3 lances of heavily armed mech in the mission that supposed to be a cakewalk Or for example bese defence missions where enemy just B-lines straight for the buildings with no care for their own wellbeing. It's impossible to stop 8 mechs from destroying a single building if they just ignore you. I really wan't to like this game but I end up feeling like this game is just wasting my time and pissing me off.

The game and game play are amazing. It does however have high requirements for the graphics (it is beautifully done, but it is not as fancy as some games, yet requires better equipment to run). It is very close to the original table top game in play style which makes it fun for a old time player like myself, I have been playing the table top game for 33 years now and though it has differences this game is the closest to the tabletop game out of all the computer games. In the future I would hope newer versions add things such as a different mech based on character background or player choice, easier updates, and multiple difficulty levels for the AI so that more casual players don't have a difficult time playing.

I freaking love this game. I've been playing nothing but Battletech since the day it came out. Almost 500 hours. I don't normally play strategy, but I really like the the Battletech/Mechwarrior universe so I thought I'd try it. Backed it on Kickstarter, waited a year and was not disappointed at all. Yes there were a couple minor bugs on day one, but they were quickly polished away within a few days. As for negatives I can say I didn't really care for the whole weird gender thing. Please keep that kind of stuff to yourselves. It's not a reason to not buy the game, but I'd rather it was not there. I really, really would like some more realism/difficulty in the game rules and resource management. Like not being able to build a mech out of 3/3 scrap parts, but having to have 1 Legs + 1 torso + 1 head and AMMO that you have to buy to reload your mech after a battle. Just some small tweaks there. Oh and I want to see my mechs in the bay and be able to turn them. Shoot, I'd PAY to have a tool that would let me look at my mechs in 3d.

This game captures the true spirit of the Battletech franchise. I see the contemplates on waiting for the game to load, I would suggest a fast hard drive or even a SSD.

Fantastic - hoping for a second iteration of this great game. Many hours of fun, challenging but never impossible, strategic, but also tactical - just really good.
