Ross WatsonHOST
Um, but the design team for Shadowrun, though, is actually three different guys.
Vera SamilaHOST
Oh, WizKids make MechWarrior, right?
Ross WatsonHOST
Well, they were involved with it.
Ross WatsonHOST
Um, Weisman has been involved with MechWarrior and BattleTech in different capacities, 'cause, uh, it was...
Ross WatsonHOST
The properties that they created, like BattleTech, Shadowrun, have been sold numerous times to other publishers.
Ross WatsonHOST
I think Microsoft bought BattleTech, or MechWarrior I should say, um, a while back.
Vera SamilaHOST
Well, Microsoft has the rights to, uh, I believe Shadowrun also, so.
Ross WatsonHOST
Maybe.
JonHOST
... you're gonna love this one.
Chris SegerHOST
Like MechWarrior.
JonHOST
Because the customization you can put on it is great.
JonHOST
Honestly, I didn't really like MechWarrior that much.
Chris SegerHOST
See, nobody I know likes MechWarrior.
JonHOST
But I liked Zone of Enders.
JonHOST
I liked fucking, I liked Zone of Enders.
Chris SegerHOST
Not a single person likes Western mecha that's more realistic and grounded.
NathanHOST
But, [laughs] but if it hits, it just deletes a limb.
LewisHOST
I'm still scared, I'm still scared of the mechs when we're playing, uh, MechWarrior 5 coming out, just coming up with the AC/20s and just ruining your day from that start of the mission, if you didn't know they're there.
NathanHOST
Yeah.
NathanHOST
At, at the moment I'm playing a play through and we've got to about 38, like 30, 38.
14 MINS LATER
NathanHOST
They showed nothing.
NathanHOST
I was like, "Okay, that's fine." Three days after I get home ...
NathanHOST
Oh, no, one day after I get home actually, Ashes and Ascension, the new DLC for MechWarrior 5: Mercenaries coming out October 6th.
NathanHOST
So Lewis, do you know much about this?
JoeHOST
that.
JoeHOST
Okay, so this is where I get into my biases against the pulse laser as it was in MechWarrior.
JoeHOST
Because I come from a background where, to me, I think Pulse Laser and I think the very obvious Pew Pew.
JoeHOST
And Pulse Lasers are not that.
Sebastian PeakHOST
Yeah
Jeremy HellstromPANELIST
... from, like, MechWarrior and
Sebastian PeakHOST
Limited Run did a decoder ring for the Monkey Island big box, but it-
Jeremy HellstromPANELIST
Yeah
Jeremy HellstromPANELIST
One of the first-
Sebastian PeakHOST
It is-
Jeremy HellstromPANELIST
... cracks I did was, uh, for MechWarrior, and it was like page 49, sentence 12, word 3.
Jeremy HellstromPANELIST
But there were only about 100 of them, so we wrote them all down and then programmed it in so it could auto-fill them.
ChrisHOST
Yeah.
DaveHOST
Uh, MechWarrior.
ChrisHOST
Yep.
DaveHOST
The Baldur's Gate collection.
DaveGUEST
It's true.
DaveGUEST
I mean, I've been in this world, in this universe since MechWarrior 2, but just never landed on the classic game.
SteveHOST
Very good.
SteveHOST
That's also where I started was MechWarrior 2 and the computer game way back in the day.
SteveHOST
So it's good.
DaveGUEST
That's where you picked up your Falcons.
IanHOST
And then I'll play through that for a while.
IanHOST
We did that with MechWarriors.
IanHOST
MechWarriors 5.
IanHOST
The cantankerous clankers.
IanHOST
We had a little clan called the Cantankerous Clankers.
JoeHOST
Mine, I first encountered it with someone...
JoeHOST
Someone did a mock-up in MechWarrior.
JoeHOST
Like MechWarrior 5, where it looked... very muted.
JoeHOST
The teal was not in your face or bright.
JoeHOST
I was like, I like that.
MarxHOST
As always, a big thank you to Catalyst Game Labs for their generous stewardship of the Battletech property.
MarxHOST
I suppose I should also thank Activision and Dynamix for the original version of the MechWarrior back in...
MarxHOST
Oh boy, 37 years ago.
MarxHOST
What is time? Honestly, it's still one of my favorites, but the audio is exceptionally crude and the graphics are laughable by modern standards.
