    What is so special about TEST Squadron?

    It's a great group of people. All ages, all different backgrounds, from all over the world. We're tolerant, laid back and kinda have it in the back of our heads that we could get stuff done (maybe) if we wanted to. If not so great people join, they just don't end up feeling comfortable because...

    Just because, here's some stuff to look at that you all might like. Obviously 5 isn't out yet, but this is my childhood journey of Mech Warrior up to today. Honestly 3 was my favorite, or at least I remember being so immersed in it and just loving the game. I hope 5 has force feedback support. I...

    I can't play another first person Mech Warrior game until they bring back force feedback support. There's something about feeling every step of your mech, every time you fire or get hit and every time you use your jump jets that's just "immersive".

    Game good, but the pacing is excruciating! Move mech. Watch mech move. Watch mech settle. Next mech. Watch mech move. Order attack. Attack. Watch enemy mech fall over or blow up and stuff. Watch mech for extra second or two because no reason. Enemy turn. Watch stupid tank off sensor creep close...

    CitizenCon 2018 Austin Texas

    There's a lot of events going on that month and the venue was either booked or ridiculously expensive to rent on the weekends. Even mid week the hotel prices are jacked up and close to capacity.

    CitizenCon 2018 Austin Texas

    I definitely PLAN on going, buying tickets, arranging for the hotel room months in advance, and the only thing that would stop me would be some dire or last minute thing popping up at work. I need to know where everyone would like to stay so hopefully we can all stay in the same hotel / area and...

    Also I used to watch the "grown ups" at the comic book store play tabletop battletech back when I was really little and thought it was the coolest thing ever.

    Haven't played too much of it yet, maybe about an hour due to time, but I was like "damn, they did a good job with presentation on this one". Mech commander 1 and 2 were my favorite games at the time of their release when I was a kid. Mech warrior 2 through 4 were also my favorites. Never read...

    Deafening roar of the fans? Theyre really not that bad, I only even remotely notice them if I'm like playing some new game with everything maxxed. With headphones I've never even noticed and mine are open backed. Looking at the back of mine, I see an HDMI, minidisplay port, and thunderbolt 3...

    Happy Birthday to our Glorious Leader

    Sounds good! I'll mark it on my calendar and let Chris and Sandy know. We'll have to arrange something so it doesn't actually overshadow the release of the game. I know it's inevitable but we can at least make it look like we tried to prevent that. Also isn't that the year you start collecting...

    Happy Birthday to our Glorious Leader

    Aren't we supposed to have a big procession on occasions like these? The forums should be lit up with confetti and flying beer mugs. I can't believe I missed glorious leaders birthday. Happy belated birthday old man!
