= MechWarrior: Living Legends ="Will you be a living legend or a forgotten casualty?" By the 31st century, humanity has spread to thousands of worlds, while a handful of powerful empires wage continual war for the right to rule the stars. Foremost among the weapons used in that struggle are BattleMechs. Loaded with auto cannons, missile launchers, lasers, and charged-particle beam weapons, these fusion-powered war machines of articulated armor stand upward of ten meters high. Piloting them are MechWarrior’s, the best, most intensively trained men and women available. Like the armored knights of an earlier age, MechWarrior’s are popular heroes, and their exploits are the stuff of legends. MechWarrior: Living Legends (MWLL) is a total conversion modification for Crysis. MWLL is at its very core a mix between a First Person Shooter (FPS) and a Simulation (SIM). This will be achieved through the use of a mixed arms massively multiplayer gaming experience where the player takes part in a battle using a variety of vehicles and weapons. MWLL is using the concepts pioneered by the “Battlefield” franchise and more recently Crysis, of a sandbox feel where you get to play what you want and how you want it. MWLL depicts the epic struggles between the two factions of Battletech “The Clans” and “The Inner Sphere”. Maps will typically have a mix of vehicles and infantry combat, using both of these to complete objectives as a team will be essential to winning rounds or campaigns in MWLL. In the project we will be bringing some of the legends of “MechWarrior” franchise back to life with new art and animations that do justice to these huge weapons of war and also do something that’s never be done before using the deep universe of Battletech. There are so many facets to Battletech and finally comes a title that is willing to explore them. Major Features:

10 comments by AoP on Aug 4th, 2009 digg this super bookmark Four Variants: IS_HarasserWhat used to be an extremely mobile and swift missile plattform, has now become a real weapons plattform: the Inner Sphere's Harasser. See below the four variants you'll find in the first public playable version of MWLL. The vehicle itself is undergoing extensive remodeling at this time, which is why the version in this screenshot does only have placeholder textures on. New particle effects: Mech jumpjets & Aerospace engine blastsMore shiny stuff! New particle effects have been added for Mech jumpjets as well as aerospace engine blasts. Mech cockpits - Work In ProgressJust recently, a new member joined the MWLL Developer team: Gibbage, who will be working on the cockpits. Some of the results of this work are shown below: a couple of WIP shots of an Inner Sphere cockpit. New particle effects: Mech core explosionsExploding Mech core are supposed to be monumental and impressive, which is why they're under permanent observation and examination. The result of this process is yet another updated set of particle effects. Check them out below! Playtest ImpressionsAgain, here are a few pictures from this week's playtest.

i say only 2 words Great Work :D
Great piece of work really liked the strafing runs of the aerospace assets on the dropship. I was wondering will you be able to enter the dropship and man the defences of the ship? Also will there be a option to have a player be a commander as in BF2?
All in all a great piece of work and will be watching this one to see what it leads since I miss the multiplayer battles during MW4 when I was active there. The idea of playing in more then one vehicle appeals greatly to me! :)
Yes, in some maps the dropship will act like a base. Vehicles and mechs are "made" there as well as infantry spawning. The defenses will be mannable as well. The ultimate goal of the enemy would be to capture the dropship command deck or destory it.
Will any of these mechs have an AM\FM radio?
He he he. Awesome work, people.
Nope Sirius Satellite Radio only :D
You guys are doing an awesome job.
Finally, an engine that can do the true beauty of Mechwarrior justice, I hope it all goes to plan and may it's awesomeness never fade...
you guys are moving along nicely, i cant even describe how exited i am to play this mod, last pc mech game i playd was mechwarrior 4 wich was good but didnt look great, for this i will need a box of tissues tho
Thanks! Just wait till you see our next newsletter, coming out very soon!
That's rad, I never played or owned a Mech Warrior game but I had always wondered what I'd be like.
