Two Factor Authentication is now available on BeyondUnreal Forums. To configure it, visit your Profile and look for the "Two Step Verification" option on the left side. We can send codes via email (may be slower) or you can set up any TOTP Authenticator app on your phone (Authy, Google Authenticator, etc) to deliver codes. It is highly recommended that you configure this to keep your account safe.
They did say there is a lot of content reuse, which you could see more in the fly by videos they released earlier. Even with that, though, the environments just look amazing. Really looks like you are a mech storming around a real city.
**** looks good. I've been really wanting a good modern mech game, and this looks like it may be it. Few things I would change up, but that's neither here nor there. Looks fantastic. I'll be waiting for a release.
Also, I'm hoping for full on customization. I know that can be a quite the task to accomplish, but it would be rather rad.

While on the topic of Mech games, here's a rather good looking MechWarrior mod for Crysis. Haven't tried it myself though.

Yea saw this when it showed up on facebook the other day. DAMN 1st time I got hot for a game in awhile tbh. I like it.

What's with all those "a bit too fast" comments? I think it's gorgeous and interesting just because it looks faster than all those brainless walking fps that saturate the market these days.
What the hell... i thought this was an UT forum

First time in over a year I've seen a game that made me think "I want to try this". Looks promising!
I like that they're conscious of the simulation vs. arcade thing. I think I tend to get hung up about it (like I do in my previous replies here) when it seems someone makes a regular fps with robot skins and expect people to take it as "a mechwarrior game".
I like the design decisions they talk about. They seem to be avoiding a lot of pet peeves I have with modern FPS games.
Hopefully the class customization will be flexible enough not to be deadlocked into a certain role.
Which is something every game designer nowadays considers a good mechanic for whatever odd reason I just cannot grasp.

As a FPS player who never been much into mech sims I don't get hung up on that stuff, more the opposite. It's a "mech combat FPS" after all. Sounds promising from the interview.
