The Game
For years after the release of the classic first Mechwarrior we waited patiently for Activison to finish the sequel, watching them sack one development team after another until, finally, they got it right.
Starting as a series of non-computerized RPG-like games, the MechWarrior 2 story, set in the 31st century, revolves around warring clans who are duking it out in massive,bipedal war machines known as "Mechs." The Wolf and Jade Falcon Clans are each vying for control of Terra, sending their armies of heavily armed robotic behemoths against each other in a never-ending cycle of violence. As a new pilot for either side, you must bring your clan victories and do so with honor in order to ensure success and rise through the ranks.
Different battles have different goals: sometimes search and destroy, sometimes recon, base strikes, or other missions. As your playing improves, you're put at the head of a squad which you control. In each mission you can outfit yourselfwith a custom Mech, which you can modify down to weapons loadout, heat sinks, engine, and so forth. Over a dozen Mechs are available, each with its own strengths and weaknesses, and picking the right one for the job at hand can becrucial.
The graphics are amazing for the time, especially the intro. In terms of impact related to the technology available at the time, the Mechwarrior II intro rivaled the Wing Commander II intro from a few years earlier. At times you can see right down to the clan insignia on the side of the enemy Mechs. And the view through the cockpit of your Mech is stunning.
This is no cake walk: MechWarrior 2 is a tough, demanding game, with challenging controls and opponents. Maneuvering both the Mech and the turret can be a tricky proposition at times. With controls more like those of a flight sim, and a need for strategy and planning, this is not your average action game. It demands a lot from gamers but it delivered like nothing could back in its day.
