I'm not impressed with the Youtube gameplay videos so far, but I'll try it out once it's out of beta. I'm not expecting much, and I think I'll still have more fun in WoT.

I'm not in the beta sadly. I'm a bit scared it'll be too much aimed at the zero attention span console clowns rather than actually trying to depict heavy, unwieldy beasts of steel. If it's too fast paced it'll be "just another shooter", looking at some of the vids the whole movement system seems to be a bit bland and simplified.

Not really a shooter... The only fast if you're in a fast mech. The videos are all cut to be action oriented. If you just run in you will die very very quickly unless your a good scout pilot to avoid fire and find cover. You have to be fairly cautious unless you're in a 100 ton mech. Not sure how complex a mech warrior control scheme has ever been... throttle, movement, torso... Been like that in every mech game i've played.

I also remember radar controls, coolant, reactor on/off, squad command (single player), and weapon grouping. Most of the controls fit on the force feedback that I had, I remember that much.

No radar..not yet (controls) . Can power down, and can group weapons. Command stuff is getting implemented, but I think most people use VC. But the other games I remember all similar controls even on the PS1.
