I've had 4 coffees this morning, and i want to talk about Mechwarrior. And Hawken. And piloting giant robots.
I've been a huge mechwarrior fan my entire gaming life. My first game, at the ripe young age of 9, was Mechwarrior 2. I've owned every pc mechwarrior game since then, played an online MMO (Neveron anyone?) and even read some of the novels. So naturally, I've been dreaming of piloting a mech the old fashioned (or year 3000 fashioned?) way since forever. Stick, throttle, and pedals. I like the looks of the mekfu controller for hawken, but it doesnt have a throttle or pedals (i think the left stick is emulating your WASD cluster). I like the looks of the razer artemis, but i the throttle is very weak looking (a tiny slider?), and i want something substantial.
Hotas setup for me? I think so. Probably the F-16 controls and metal combat pedals.
WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO USE?
