Front Mission Evolved

Was just browsing through Steam games on the near horizon and ran across this one. From the trailer, it looks a bit like Heavy Gear (which IMO was a bit better than Mech Warrior) but mixed with FPS.
Either way… it has BIG ROBOTS and swirly missiles 8-)
Will have to see some more game-play footage, but looks like a hoot, and coming out quite soon. Personally though, I want a full blooded Macross MMO game dammit.

Personally, I had fun playin through the SP campaign (except for getting spanked by a few of the end bosses :evil: )
Hopefully some geekier fellows than I set to work on getting some mod tools together for it, as it has potential.

Thought I’d look around for the save file to copy my um …“preview” edition’s save over to the new retail install and hold onto my full access to parts n’ such… but the first file I ran into was this:

Literally pages of it, with quite a wide array of similar strings and their numerous variants.

So uh… either there are some rather disturbed individuals coding it, with an excess of mismanaged time, or perhaps that’s just a dictionary of words the game checks for when naming a profile? Either way, that took me by a bit of a surprise.
