It's fun. It has an issue, but it's fun

Hawken is an original with being a 1st person mech shooter that's free to play. When you're in your mech, duking it out on the fields of battle, you will have a pretty good smile on your face after a match or two. The glaring problem is that the in game currency or hc for hawken credits has a low retrieval making it so that you will have to grind for hc for a day for a weapon, or 2 days for another mech or 4 days for a g2 or generation 2. Either you do that or pay for your weapons and your mech and become a monster on the field. Over all, take note that is can become a pay to win if you try to fight other players, and that may make, or break other players. Don't believe me? Check the servers when you come in, and see how many people are actually playing it. This is why I stick with playing verses AI. Now with a daily login you can get some credits if you're not in the mood to play. Hawken's great, and it's a pretty fun when going against AI. Be careful going against other players.
