Reactor Online. Sensors Online. Weapons Online. All Systems Nominal. BATTLETECH is HERE! Take command of your own mercenary outfit of 'Mechs and the MechWarriors that pilot them, get BATTLETECH right here:
Steam
Plaza
 
pre loaded yesterday as a backer.
still not playing
apparently steam still has crap to do....30 minutes post release and still not playing....wtf guys
 
I am quite understandably still "Unpacking" all the great Big and Stompiness that will be entertaining me for months and months and years to come/

A few more minutes after more than 2 and a half years is NOTHING. : )
 
It's not a go yet... Not according to steam.

Been preparing to launch for better than a half hour now. Nothing to download. It's not trying to download. It's just waiting for some reason.
 
i wish i had known about that.
see...i am a cheap arse basterd and i NEVER pay full retail for a game or pre order anything
but i have been playing battletech since it was battledroids and i believe in what they are doing at HBS so that i backed the game 2 years ago....
i not angry so much as frustrated like a kid on xmas day being told he has to wait unitl the relative arrive before opening gifts....arrrgh!!
 
*watching the intro with erupting emotions]

Now, i just had to go back here and leave some words before venturing forth.

After a journey of at least 10 years around the deathpit of overpriced empty shells of so called "AAA - games" the one and only thing i wished the most is finally here. *taking a deep breath*

I want to thank all HBS staff, @HBS_HighCommand and all the backers for making their and my dream come true!
Thank you for your time and effort, the hope of building something great and the staying power against the stream of EA/UBI/[insert name of ripoff company here] releases and bring the one and only thing we ever wanted!

If you've read the "over 40 yo thread" you get a picture on "how the fucking time" it was to make such gem for the battletech community... and i think i'm not the only one here who thinks this way. :D

Nevertheless let this become a great success!
For the youth to realize what we adults understand about "a good game".
For us adults to dive into memorys of joy and frustration.
And of course success for HBS ;)
