For example, from within the cockpit, you can look left and right, up and down, and even zoom in and out of the Z axis. Play from within the cockpit of your BattleMech, trailing behind it, or even from an overhead satellite view: There are still more options within each of these views. Thanks to the true 3D graphics, there are also several camera perspectives. With 15 different BattleMechs, all easily customized, the game offers a generous variety of gameplay elements. Once you get your feet wet in the early missions, the game turns up the heat with more complicated objectives and aggressive foes.īeyond the complex missions and in-depth story line of banished Clans living in a constant state of war, the sheer number of available gameplay features makes MechWarrior 2 worthy of high praise. The early missions are reasonably considerate of the fact that controlling the BattleMechs is not, at first, an easy thing to do and it takes practice to take full advantage of its features. Each mission takes you to a different location giving the game great variety in look and character. Missions consist of a few objectives which must be met in order to advance the ultimate cause of your Clan. Once you’ve decided upon your Clan, you have the option of learning how to operate the BattleMechs in an extensive Cadet Training program, or jumping right in to the first mission. Both the Jade Falcon and the Wolf Clans have their own agendas and your game heavily depends upon which side you choose to belong. Offering more than 50 missions, each ranging in size and scope, MechWarrior 2 begins with your pledging allegiance to one of two rival Clans. Then, once you’re truly immersed into the game, the mission objectives take on a whole new sense of weight and urgency, adding to the overall enjoyment of the experience. With considerable time put into the development of realistic controls and physics (more than two years since the original MechWarrior), the game invites you into its world without any distractions of disbelief. Based on the FASA BattleTech Universe, MechWarrior 2 is a 3D battle sim with a rich story line and a history that backs up the explosive action. Short of actually building a BattleMech in your garage with plans of unleashing its power on the suburban neighborhood of your choice, MechWarrior 2 comes as close as you’re going to get to the real thing.
