New Mech Game in Development for Syntensity: Metallblech

[Daemonward]

This looks like it's going to be really cool. From the forum:

It is a Battletech / Mechwarrior / Gundam like modular Mech design. The 3D model is build in modular parts for equipment,weapon and body parts. The modules are exported as separate md5 files. This enables a individual Mech configuration as well as proper hit location system and the destruction of body parts.

As far as mecha/robot indie games go, Assault Tech is definitely better/more advanced.

But the problem with AT1:BT is that I already have MW:3.

Also, AT1:BT has an issue, where whenever I find something awesome and go to use it, my game crashes.

It may be more advanced, but that's pretty much just because it's a faithful copy of a 20+ year old tabletop game, which, while one of my favorites, doesn't always copy over to a digital medium well/faithfully (coughmechassaultcough).

AT1:BT is okay, but it's really in need of some bug correction.
