Caltrops - Mercenaries: Playground of Destruction





	[quote name="The Joosh"]This is a game that lets you install missle attracting beacons which you can shoot at enemy mechs, causing a shitstorm of like 100 long range missles to pour over a mech like water. It is beautiful. Actually I never tried that, I prefer the giant shotguns and the Mechwarrior style particle projection cannon. Anything else that needs to be said about the game can be found in this action trip review: <a href="http://www.actiontrip.com/reviews/mechwarrior4vengeance.phtml">http://www.actiontrip.com/reviews/mechwarrior4vengeance.phtml</a> [quote name="Action Trip"] I gather the Microsoft producers kinda nudged the FASA team, and muttered the words: "Drag and Drop" in a commanding fashion. Great job guys! I had a blast dragging and dropping different weapons, calculating the excess tonnage, and configuring the hell out of my Mech! As usual, the default configuration just doesn't cut it, so you'll have to roll your sleeves, get all greasy, and customize your little baby 'till it purrs like a kitten. The best thing about the MechLab is that even the Mech-newbies will find it highly intuitive and easy to use. The customization is split into three screens: Chassis, Weapons, and Armor. Each of the weapon sub-categories (e.g. Ballistic, Beam) are neatly colored in reds, yellows and greens making your job of dragging and dropping your favorite weapons a breeze. Without getting too technical, let's just say that if you do decide to play this game on the 'Veteran' or higher level of difficulty you'll need to know your weapon/Mech specs inside and out, which is actually easy to master thanks to the great UI.
