Heavy Gear Assault is one of the pillars that defined the Mech genre in games. For years, players on the table top had been fighting these battles with miniatures.

    Ahh, Heavy Gear, a lot of memories from that game. I can't wait to see how this one will turn out.

    I played this game extensively, it was a lot of fun. It wasn't just brute force and a little strategy like Mechwarrior (a game series I also liked), it was the other way around, and it was done well. I still liked MW better, but that does not mean I didn't have fun with this game!

    I'm also looking forward to what they come up with.


    The world is going to the dogs, which is just how I planned it!

    Yes, I'm rather surprised to see this effort when there's an established MechWarrior online game. Will it be all that different? Or do they expect to have a lot of people nostalgic for the nuances of earlier Heavy Gear games?
