This is a total conversion mod for Crysis has been in development for a couple years now. Its a free mod, but they actually have Crysis employees helping them with the mod. I predict a lot of copies of Crysis will be sold because of it.

EDIT: Beta is now available for download

i never knew about this.. thanks!

I've been waiting patiently for this one. Can't wait.

I've been keeping an eye on this as well. I'm a huge MechWarrior fan, when someone posts "MW2" my first thoughts are MechWarrior 2, not Modern Warfare 2. Someone should point to to COD fans that the acronym is already taken. :)Marfoo

wow should tide me over till mechwarrior comes out if it ever does

Looks amazing. When it first submerged out of the water I was all omGGGGGGGGGG. Just like that. Now I have a few days to reinstall and patch Crysis :)

I'm kind of curious how they can share the MechWarrior name without getting wrecked. Or is it not on the radar of thepublishers of the next MW game yet?

Will it work with Crysis:Warhead? Or do i need the original?Iantheone

Its a free non commerical mod, and MS has said they won't go against them.

Crysis and Warhead expansion now $13.59. Crysis is needed to play the beta. And Warhead will be used for the final game. Not sure how long the sale will last.

Initial impressions:

The mod is rough around the edges, but shows promise. Its beta afterall. Once you looked past the unpolished stuff, you start enjoying the game a lot. They had crashing issues the 1st 3 days but they quickly patched it and I haven't crashed since. The controls are hard to get used to. The mechs feel a lot slower than other mechwarrior games (good or bad depending on how you see it). They are definately going for more of a sim feel of the old mechwarrior games, and not the arcadey gamplay mechassault. Mechs have a bad habit of stoppoing on small objects. Some mechs are better then others about this. You need to set your sound quality to low in advanced options and turn off VOIP in sound settings, otherwise the sound stop working and it sounds like you have vasoline in your ears. Graphics are very nice if your computer can handle it. There is sometimes bad lag and warping in 32 players servers. 16 player servers are better about this. If you are itching for a mech game this game will deliever. Just don't expect perfection, its clear they are still working on a lot of things.

Wow that looks really excellent for a mod.

The sale is over, hopefully most of you got it in time.

Has anyone actually played it yet? If so, how is it?

I play it on W7.

Don't know what other people experienced, but my only problem was the lag (which is caused by the game, not because of my connection, or high ping)

Yeah so far the mod shows alot of promise. The main thing holding it back is the network lag. Its not noticable on some servers with only 16 players, but on the 32 players severs there is too much random warping. The next patch is suppose to address this. It should come out this week.
