I wonder how many infantry this game could take, even in a PvE match with only 1 mech (or 2-4 mechs if you allow coop).



I have a sneaking suspicion that a full company of infantry, in addition to tanks, LRM carriers and hovercraft, would set most people's computers on fire.



LOL, have you seen the size of the cars? We wouldnt even be able to see or HIT the infantry in this game......they likely wouldnt even render on our screens, nor could we aim low enough to hit them.....You could give us 2000 infantry and it wouldnt even matter...aside from the CPU power to process that many....I would much rather have AI Mechs, even if they are clumsy.....If we got AI even as good as Mechwarrior 4, then this game would be golden...I drummed up ideas for an entire campaign based just on the maps we have now...it sounded fun in my head......start on Crimson, go out to Canyon, then head off to Mining, then were on to River, we defend River in the day and then the night again, we finally evac River night, we get our Dropship shot down in Tourmaline, we wander off to the Caustic, stumble upon Forest Colony where we are evac'd to Alpine.At Alpine we defend the base from a huge attack, then we are on the attack and head off to frozen city..and that is about where my ideas ended.
