Just wanted to pop in and say zomg yiss Hawken so good.

Seriously, you guys have just got to try it out. It's F2P on Steam right now, still on Early Access but it runs flawlessly for me. It also doesn't suffer from the issues that can be associated with other online versus multiplayer games, ie. making one player stand out from the rest as incredibly OP. Even in the starter mech you've got a good enough stats that you can take out mechs a tier above you. I mostly attribute this to the very nice matchmaking system they've incorporated, as well as just general balance.

The customization is likely going to feel restrictive and pricey for you guys, as you're used to just building mechs as you please. However, if you play for an hour, you get 500 Meteor credits for cosmetics and 2000 regular credits to go towards mechs and weapons, a really nice boost to get you on your way. I've only purchased a digital desert camo skin for my primary assault mech, and I've still got some left over for other things. Razz

So yeah, I highly suggest you try Hawken out! If you haven't already, add me on Steam..
Is that what you've been doing this whole time?  Razz

If anyone plays Defiance on XBox, my gamertag (in case anyone does not remember or has lost it) is TF Twitch. I am currently on the North American server. I cannot wait for the new season to come out, especially when all of these other great shows (like Almost Human and Revolution) are getting canceled.

So I recently found this free game called "Robocraft" in the process of being Greenlit on Steam (basically Indie devs submit their games for review and eventual acceptance to be sold on Steam). It looked like a really cool concept to me, so I visited the website and quickly downloaded the Alpha (it's not a large file at all). I expected to be disappointed. You know the deal: they call it F2P and then you play a bit and constantly get dominated by Unicorns. But what I found was pure, unbridled, crazy, ludicrous, mad fun. The only things that cannot be acquired with in-game currency are cosmetic items (currently only light trails and decals with flags of various countries). But I'm getting ahead of myself. Watch this video:



So basically, the game is just what that video shows: you build a custom land or air vehicle from the ground up (starters are provided in all three "Garages"), slap some guns on it, and then throw it in a 12v12 TDM/CTB madhouse of insanity. And it's great. My only complaint comes from the people who float themselves with helium tanks up to the "roof" of the map and snipe, but if your team has a ground-based sniper, you can count on them going down quick. And from what I hear, the devs don't like that tactic either, so I fully expect them to do something about it before release.

Other than that, every time I die, I feel like it was my fault. With all the half-baked AAA titles like BF4 floating around right now where you can't be sure half the time why you died backed into a corner with nobody in sight, it's very refreshing. And besides that, every time you die, you not only learn how to counter the enemy's tactics, but you can then go and make your machine better too. Having trouble dealing with a rolling wall of guns? Grab some mortar-type weapons next time and blast them right off. After all, just a rolling wall isn't much good for long. And besides that, each piece is assigned a certain numerical value; go above a set total cap and you end up in the next tier. It's a very simple balance system, but it works and it makes the game just that much more fun.

TL;DR, Try this game if you like robots and Minecraft and guns. Or Mindstorms. And shoot "Klushots" a friend request if you do.

I'm pretty much buying a PS4 mainly for this game (Blu Ray capabilities and other games as well, but to a lesser degree). Almost everyone who played the alpha agreed that even with the levels of hype Bungie had generated beforehand, they were still blown away by it. And this is a build confirmed to be at least a couple months old with less than 10% of the game accessible. And in case you were still on the fence about how epic this game is, here's a message from Peter Dinklage (otherwise known as Tyrion Lannister by Game of Thrones fans [which I am not] or Dinklebot as the Bungie forums like to call him):
