These two small mech pack expansions were released within a month of
each other at a reduced price but even so, felt like something that
should've appeared in a free patch rather than a retail product. The
Inner Sphere pack has four new mechs: Dragon, Highlander, Zeus, and
Hunchback. There are also two new parts and two new maps. The ballistic
heavy gauss rifle is like its name says, a more powerful gauss rifle,
but heavier and lacking range (four slots, 18 tons, 600m, eight second
reload). The other piece of technology is a nifty little thing called
the IFF Jammer. When activated, the jammer will trick enemy HUDs into
thinking you are a neutral target. There are also two new multiplayer
maps. Coliseum is pretty self-explanatory (an enormous stadium is the
ring and you and your mech are one of the gladiators). In stark contrast,
Gagetown is actually a tree laden area just outside the walled city
of...Gagetown. Since these two maps could be found free on the internet
for download, it made this an even bigger rip-off. |
