The online multiplayer is what MechAssault is all about, anyway, and in that regard, the game has made the typical two steps forward, one step back. The game is not particularly difficult, except a couple of poorly tuned levels that are needlessly frustrating. But the explosions look so good this time around, and the night scenes are even cooler, so there is usually enough eyecandy to keep you moving to the next level. The protagonist is a distinctly everyman known only as mechwarrior,? and it features not only the requisite sexy-voiced guide (she's not really your superior, but she tells you what to do) but also the bungling techie, both of whom are generally never seen, which makes the voice acting all the more painful to bear. The single player mode still suffers from pretty repetitive missions with linear gameplay, a dumb story (continuing struggle for intergalactic domination, some dudes to save, some dudes to kill, and *gasp* new mechs!), and horrible voice acting. #DOWNLOAD MECHASSAULT FOR PC SERIES#In the story mode, this feature allows for some cool twists in the missions and keeps the play from getting so repetitive as in the last series installment. There is nothing more satisfying than latching onto an opponent online and jacking her mech, causing her to be ejected and allowing you to take over on the battlefield. When out of your mech, a protective coating is useful, which makes the Battle Armor especially useful.īattle Armor gives your mechwarrior the ability to shoot two different weapons and hijack other mechs. Of course, to get to new vehicles, one must get out of one's mech, which means you'll be able to run your fleshy little self around the battlefield. The story mode has been filled out with the addition of new vehicles to drive, including helicopters and tanks. If you enjoyed the last MechAssault, odds are you'll find plenty to like here. This time out, MechAssault 2: Lone Wolf, works to broaden the original scope of the game, deepen the single player story, and continue to bring new elements to the online play. In many ways MechAssault represented the best of what XBL had to offer, yet the online focus of the game has also kept it something of a niche attraction. #DOWNLOAD MECHASSAULT FOR PC FREE#Big robots, big explosions, and plenty of circle-strafing goodness kept us working that gamertag through multiple waves of free downloads. MechAssault was a standout title for Xbox in general, and one of the things that made Xbox Live successful from the outset.
