About this product
Product Information
MechWarrior 2 gives you the chance to participate in the Clan Refusal War, a bloody civil war between the Clans that occurs after the Battle of Tukayyid. The Crusaders, led by Clan Jade Falcon, seek to launch another attack into the Inner Sphere. The Warden faction, led by Clan Wolf, believe that coexistence with the Inner Sphere is the best choice. The war will ultimately dictate which faction dominates the Clans.<br><br>You can play as either a Clan Jade Falcon or Clan Wolf MechWarrior and command a range of mechs ranging from light scout to heavy 100 ton assault mechs. Before missions, each player can select one or more mechs for his or her unit as well as customize equipment and weaponry. Although there is no restriction to stop you from taking the maximum number and tonnage complement, the Clans reward players who take fewer mechs or less tonnage than allowed.<br><br>The game's 3D world is viewed from a first person perspective. Mission objectives must be completed while evading or destroying enemy mechs. During missions, each player must manage their mechs' heat level and ammunition, as well as command the CPU controlled friendly mechs to organize strategy. Missions end in failure if the objective is lost or if mechs are destroyed through damage or overheating.Product Identifiers

Just as much fun as the first time
I have been a fan of the MechWarrior franchise from the earliest days of its appearance on the computer, the original MechWarrior that featured Gideon B. Vandenburg trying to clear his family name and avenge their murders. Therefore I was excited when MechWarrior 2:Mercenaries came out, as it was the same type of game as the original MechWarrior. I hadn't played it in years, but saw it on Ebay and decided to take the plunge again. The graphics were dated as you'd expect from a game that is close to 20 years old, but the storyline was still compelling, the gameplay was intuitive and fun and the rewards for successful campaigns made it worth taking the risks. As someone who has been a gamer since the original Pong came out in the '70's, I can say that too many games today rely too much on graphics and cutscenes and not enough on characters and stories. MechWarrior 2: Mercenaries is a darn good yarn along with being a darn good game. Highly recommend the game to anyone who's never tried it and if you have, jump back in. The water's just fine...Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

An iconic game and piece of Battletech/Mechwarrior history.
Mechwarrior 2 is an iconic piece of gaming and Battletech/Mechwarrior history. The gameplay mechanics introduced in Mechwarrior 2 created the defacto standard for the "big stompy robot" genre. This game is a collectors item.
