There’s over two hundred novels, plus technical readouts and sourcebooks and that’s one of the coolest things about BATTLETECH, it's got this thirty-five-year history and this massive shared universe. If you read the novels it sounds really cool but mechanically it's not there, so that’s what we wanted to reinforce. That was a big part of what it was about for us. This is the wrong word for it, but we hope we inspire people to do that so that every mech gets a unique battlefield role based on its lore that works for everyone. But again with the modding, we figure that everyone will go back and add what they think is best for the previous mods.

Yes so all ten of the new mechs are coming with these unique bonuses, the eight in Heavy Metal and the two free ones in 1.8, they’ll all have unique pieces of equipment. You’ve also introduced unique abilities, integrated equipment, into the new mechs, will they be coming to the old mechs as well? Plus it's only got two shots so we can fit it in.Īlso, every game out there that’s a modernish tactical game has a hand grenade which is an AoE attack, so there’s no design risk there for me at all. It helps to level the playing field but it is not a win button or anything like that. It's not like rock, paper, scissors, dynamite or something. But also, when you think about what happens in the game, you’ve got four mechs taking on sometimes up to 12 at the same time, you can see the utility of this thing. First of all, it exists in BATTLETECH lore already, we didn’t create the Thumper Cannon. Was it a difficult decision to add in an Area of Effect attack into the game?Ībsolutely not, no. Wccftech interviewed the developers of BattleTech about their new expansion Heavy Metal. Roleplay your heart out!Īnd there's more! Our second release today is our third expansion for BATTLETECH, closing out our Season Pass.
