This game is an amazing game. For many reasons:
-it's free to play
-it's insanely fair (in free to play terms)
-It's super in depth
-it follows the battletech universe exactly
-its a mechwarrior game, modernized, the first time in history we get to see battletech mechs in "reality"

This game is so in-depth and detailed, everything from weapon ranges, to heat management, weather effecting how your mech cools, and customization. It's insane.

It's extremely balanced, both as a game and as a free-to-play. In terms of free-to-play, it's literally the most fair I've ever seen. You can play this game without ever spending a penny, and you'll be on the same playing field as someone who spent $100. All the microtransactions are for indirect things. Like paint-jobs on mechs, or bonus experience gains. You can't just pay money and buy the best mech in the game.

That's the beauty of it too. There are no best mechs! It's so balanced in terms of gameplay, that no one mech is better than any other. Each mech has its role, and it's pros & cons, none of which give any mech an unfair advantage.

It's what I like to call "a thinking man's shooter" because it's such an involved game, that you really have to think about what you're doing as you play.

Really the ONLY negative thing I can say about it, I'd that the community for it is too small. I'd love it if the game had a massive community, like a big Triple A title game has, I feel like it could benefit greatly with a bigger community.

I love this game to death, and would recommend it to anyone who loves mechs, mechwarrior/battletech, and shooter games.
