= 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.

No its a remake of the trailer using the mod that's why its cool
That trailer is just off of one of the old mechwarriors...I think it was off of mechwarrior 4.
It definetly was inspired by the MW4 intro but all of the assets, music, sound, inengine footage...everything was done by the team :D
Its definatly been inspired by, but its not just a replay of the old footage as the mechs involved here are catapults.
Here is the origional mech 4 opening:

Note the differences
Yeah we did it for more or less nostalgic reasons...i always loved that clip of the mechs walking through the forest and have ALWAYS wanted to do it justice IN REALTIME :D
Thanks for posting the link to the full intro ;)
No worries, i look forward to stomping on people from the cockpit of a shadowcat.
