ACG Patron. Come on by! Summary Game is pretty good and has some chops. But on both testing platforms it had FPS issues, as well as crashing and it looks like thats well known. So for now its a Wait for Sale. Needs a patch or two or a bit lower price. If you do get it at least you have Steam refund.

With graphics straight out of 2007 and this horrible performance (which is caused only by dev's inability to program the engine), the "cut-scenes" and gameplay worthy of a mobile game I'd say its more like "never touch" or even better: I'd rather eat the money. I've been a fan of BT universe for ages now and I've never seen such a pathetic attempt on the franchise.

I'm actually rather wary about the new MW game. I've wasted quite a lot of time in MWO and I'm fairly accustomed with the way PGI handles their games. I'll be surprised if it won't come out an unfinished buggy low-performing mess of a game. I'll be waiting for your video when the game comes out, genuinely interested in your opinion. Cheers.

Wow you did an excellent job relating the Magic that makes Battletech such a unique combat system that's really not like any other game. It's VERY different from XCOM and I've waited over 20 years to finally see a true computer adaptation of Battletech Tabletop game. I can't believe it's taken this long and this game really is a blast regardless of it being slow sometimes. (Much of that can be tweaked and fixed over time) Multiplayer too this game can be amazing if it brings the huge battletech/mechwarrior community together there. The lore is so great too in Battletech. It is NOT shallow. Think Game of Thrones in Space. Tons of great books and deep lore politics within this universe and mostly the game dips pretty deeply into that with some gamey contrivances that are corny at the start as you role your eyes at some of the stupid things that happen just to create a situation to play through. Overall this more than lived up to my dreams of a true Battletech game and i just pray it will grow from here now that we finally have a good foundation. Mechwarrior Tactics was a failed attempt previously and even that was a blast!

The problems with performance have definitely improved over the past year. I haven't bought any of the DLCs yet but the Urban Warfare one looks interesting, might buy this summer. I got the game on sale and do not regret my purchase. Well worth a discounted price.
@wedge_one
@wedge_one 6 лет назад
Wait for sale because of performance issues, I think you could introduce a new category like "wait for a performance fix patch" or something like that. But I also understand that you think the price is a little higher than it should be and maybe I agree with that.
@ACGreviews

The game has had a lot of updates since release. It's a lot more stable, but there are still weird performance issues from time to time. The game still feels more expensive than it should be, though, especially when you factor in the "Season Pass" model for its expansions. I was able to get the game and the first expansion for $45, but I would honestly not feel like I was getting my moneys worth if I wasn't a massive Battletech fanboy. (I've been playing various Battletech games for 20+ years). I highly recommend this game for Battletech fans, but I would be hesitant to recommend this game as an introduction into the Battletech universe.

Played all day yesterday. Encountered no bugs or graphic issues. Running a GTX 1070. I wouldnt expect this game to need much on graphics though. Maybe it's just bad optimization. Runs like a dream though on my old PC. It honestly feels like I'm playing tabletop battletech from when I was in my early 20s. I'm 40. What video card did you run? Not sure if you mentioned that. I think you said i7 for your cpu.

I've always wanted to know ACG, what constitutes a sale on PC? 10%? 20%? 30%? At what sale price is it a wait for a sale game? I tend to get my pc games anywhere from 20-25% off on release so I was wondering if you consider that a wait for sale price or not.

Hey Karak, just finished listening to your international podcast #78 and I heard Absii say that he was looking for other games similar to Bioshock. When you speak with him again you should tell him to check out a game that came out in 2010 called Singularity, its a phenomenal game that deals with time manipulation and is right up there in quality and atmosphere with Bioshock. Thanks for all you do Karak!
@DrRyan82994
@DrRyan82994 6 лет назад
I'm pretty deep in, but I feel like I should be a lot farther along... If I could skip animations and if some of the freezes in the action weren't there, missions could be 3-4 times as short depending on if you have allied turrets or a convoy to waste your time. The game really is good. It's loads of fun to defeat enemy mechs get their salvage, optimize your lance and repeat. Not really loving the story yet though. A lot of the characters have too much "attitude" I guess that seems out of place to me and so far, I don't really have any choice in helping Kamea free her people or whatever it is she wants to do

I played it a bit yesterday, and I did like it, but it does have some issues. Now I have almost no knowledge of the Bettletech universe, and I was quite lost after the "tutorial". I mean combat is pretty easy, but most of the UI made no sense to me, and was never explained in the tutorial part. It was just how to move and fire. It took me a while to figure out what phases were. Half of the info on screen is not explained (like what are the individual bars next to a mech or how to know when you are at long, short or medium ranges for your weapons). Not all icons have tool tips, some weapons are not explained well (Like the DCA or something similar) under the melee weapon. I am only on first real mission as a mecenary, so I hope some become more obvious with time, before I get in over my head. Also the camera has some weird angles when forced into the action mode during firing. Lots of clipping of terrain sometimes, and it often whips around, making it difficult to see where an enemy mech is moving to. But it is mech combat, and I have been dying to play a game like this, since I played Mech Commander ages ago.

Shadowrun (another classic FASA adaptation by Harebrained) had alot of the same problems, and it was painfully unforgiving and unintuitive at first, but damn it was engrossing. The lack of every vidya game adaptation of Battletech skipping LAM's really bugs me. They became awesome after the Clans showed up.
@TheCoreus
@TheCoreus 6 лет назад
A lot of the mechanisms mentions i.e. the stat system and the movement system are actually implicit derivations from the original source material (adjacent to the mech warrior RPG, and from the advanced version of the game in the poorly laid out rulebook). There are great abstractions such as the armor system which replaces the more banal and mind-numbing damage system of the first. Evasion is also a boon, it adds an interesting layer of tactical trade-offs. However it isn't without some blatant flaws for example the ui doesn't lend to some tactical considerations, for example I wish the ui indicated which sections of the mech hold specific weapons this would've been nice as the game allows you to target specific body parts. The bombastic plot points at least in the beginning few were trite and were so predictable I was able to enunciate in real time the same emphasis and exact wording used. In terms of pacing this game is a slog, a difficult, massive but somewhat clunky slog, much like the source material.

Good review! I was a backer for this game and I was really anticipating the release. Immediately after downloading it, I was able to play a bit of the first mission. After that, the crashes got so bad that eventually I couldn't even start the game. I got that solved, but I still can't touch the campaign without crashing when trying to load a save. So right now I'm left with the skirmish that seems to work ok. I would really like to give this game a chance, but I think it's pretty incredible that this kind of a hot mess even got released.

I had some sort of Battletech game on my Amiga 2000 in the 80's. Also had original tabletop game. So it needs an optimisation patch. Mind you, suggestions of a memory leak make me think "save, close game, open game, load" but perhaps my age makes me more patient and less demanding. I'd far rather see games like this than another mindless flashy graphics load of bollocks with about as much depth as an average news bulletin.

@WadeDMcGinnis
@WadeDMcGinnis 6 лет назад
Curious brother, did you encounter any oddities with difficulty? I have been hearing that if you reload a mission you won't get the same setup of enemies. This makes the scaling of difficulty off because a mission that is suppose to be hard for example turns out easier but reloading that same mission could be problematic. Of course if you keep to the honor system this should not be a problem. Just seems odd for a developer to do this, if it's true.

I thoroughly enjoyed your review. I preordered the game as soon as I saw it on Steam. I do not understand why people are having so many issues such as crashes or FPS loss. I have been playing since the game released and haven’t had any of those issues. The only thing that I have noticed, was what you described as you played a long session, and that is that the game would get a little sluggish, but that has only happened a couple of times. I have an FX-8350, 1080 ti, 16 Gb ram and SSD drives. I just upgraded my video card, and will upgrade the rest of my system shortly. Anyway, as I said, I have enjoyed your review and will subscribe. Take care and keep up the good work.

Not experienced any real issues in the game so far. More voice acting.would be nice, & there are some tiny issues with the camera, as mentioned in the review. However, I do believe it was well worth pre-ordering, & I predict great things for the game, going forward.....especially as more money from sales comes rolling in. Its certainly one of the best *new* games I have bought in many years.

Eh, I've bought it as it's a must have for me. Maybe a smidge overpriced but it's a pretty beefy game for 40. Some of these criticism (like lack of voice) are more suited for AAA games with enough DLC to cost $120+ I think the main thing that bothers me with this kind of game is that they get a lot of funding from the community yet end up selling the game corporate style. It also seems screwy to go with community funding then once you get it hop on board with a major publisher. Maybe this is no big deal since the gaming press seems to think nothing of it.
@Maka556
@Maka556 6 лет назад
Haven’t really had any performance issues. It’s a little ridiculous to say that the $40 price tag is too expensive for a game of this level of complexity. It’s absolutely worth buying at full price. Just, later, after the devs have fixed the bugs and crash issues.

A spot on review. A fair amount of technical issues and balance regarding the reinforcements are present. Its a good game overall, but I'd be lying if I said I wasn't disappointed. I only bought the game on launch as I'm a die hard battletech fan and was salty about how PGI fucked up the license.

looool liked and subbed just for mentioning robot jocks! one of my best child hood memories is my dad and i watching this movie all the time, he's the reason i love B movies, and btw theres a book for it, which was actually a good book, but the cheese of the movie is just the perfect amount.

As a fan of Front Mission, it would have been nice to see plans for a console release. Left Alive later this year is in the Front Mission world but I think it will play like MGS.

You say it's a wait for sale based on the performance, but what are the odds the devs will patch what they can in a somewhat timely manner? I know they're not a huge studio but they have a decent pedigree and I'm sure if the only thing that might tarnish their reputation is some performance hitches they'll try to fix those. Are they really so bad it's not worth getting now and getting an update in a couple weeks/a month?

Gaming isn't a charity though. There is no way I would ever feel confident saying buy this thing now that doesn't perform as well as it should just in case someone fixes it later.

I got the deluxe edition for only $28! I wanted to get this game anyways, but saving money is always a good thing. So far I have played about 15 hours and this game is just awesome, but I'm still trying to figure out some things.

I am running the game on an Alienware 17 R4, with Nvidia GTX 1070 GPU, a 32 gig memory and a 16 gig graphic card, why the hell is it pushing my CPU to such high heat levels!. Had to stop playing after 20 mins due to high heat level warning. Never had a game do this, Farcry 5 runs on Ultra and never gets this hot nor do any of my other games, The Game is no way heavy on graphics so i do not understand why it doing this. YOU NEED TO SORT THIS OUT NOW!!!!!!

The strategic layer has always been one of the most fascinating things to me about the battletech world, as much or more than the tactical layer. Sounds like this was a positive from your perspective?

Never played the tabletop game though always loved the Battletech lore/setting - felt like most mechwarrior games didnt do that justice. Purchased the other day, and i ended up playing it 7 hrs straight until 5AM. Loving the story/feel of the game. So far havent really encountered your performance or stability issues though. And that's with a lot of alt-tabbing to discord.

While I do agree with the pros and cons, I feel the pros far outweigh the cons. Combined with the fact that Harebrained seem dedicated to fixing the bugs in the game and has already released a preformance patch I would say this is a must buy.

Just finished Battletech. I took my time and really played the mercenary role. Without rushing or grinding and NO reloads, losing a fight is a big part of the experience, i got 65 hours of very good gameplay. Highly recommend.

I loved Robot Jox. Don't want to look it up to see how it looks like now so I don't ruin my nostalgia for it but I'm pretty sure it doesnt look as good as I remember it.

The polish of the game for $40 seems a little low. Camera problems ACG mentioned, 21:9 support and some questionable interface design problems. At the Kickstarter price of $25 I couldn't be happier. The game is great fun.

No crashing on my all AMD system. Could be a NVidia driver causing the issue.

"Crashed all the time on my system. AMD" "No crashing on my all amd system" Sigh. Thats why sometimes pc gaming can be so friggen annoying. As usual it seems to be a GAME issue sadly
