    I would really like to see a couple differences (correct me if this game already has these features, haven't bought it yet). A speed walk boost. That would greatly add to the strategy, especially if the npc's and/or enemies use that ability as well. Cockpit view would be perfect for hardcore gamers that like extra--and rewarding--tactical challenge in their gameplay.

    From what I see, gooru put his efforts into improving MW2. I give props. I'll be keeping my eye on it for sure.

    Absolutely. I personally found MW2 monotonous, both visually and in gameplay. By contrast, each mission on MW3 (I've played through the first 4 so far) has a distinct flavor to it -- even if the basic objective remains the same. So far there have been canyons, radar bases, deserts, and snow-covered mountains. Enemies have mostly been mechs (with a variety of equipment and capabilities), but I have also fought drones and turrets.

    MW3 is essentially a tactical action game with RPG elements. Load outs makes a big difference, but you also have to be mindful of enemy capacity, make good use of the environment, generally approach combat in a mindful way.

    On the minus side: you definitely need to grind, especially if you stay away from IAPs. Progress is generally slow, though it is satisfying to see a brand new weapon on your mech. The mech design is pretty utilitarian and uninspired, but at least it comes across as "realistic." The AI is fairly dumb, though enemies will try evasive maneuvers.

    All in all, I'm really digging it so far.

    This is the best mech game on ios, period.
    It need only one thing: a real first person view...

    From the screenshots looks like this is the iOS version of hawken in third person view. Is that about right?

    Hello, Truncana.

    It's really easy to add a first person view mode.
    But I want to know why do you need it?
    You won't see your machine and weapons.
    Could you let me know...:)

    Hi, zergslayer69.

    I know hawken and I like it.
    But MW3 has a lot of difference to hawken.
    You can enjoy it.:)

    Thanks.

    To add a more immersive option. I like to see my mech from outside, but I like to feel inside of it too. So, if it is simple, please add it in next update and this will be the "mechwarrior" of mobile systems!!! Let me know if you are agree and if you decide to put in this new option. Thanks a lot!!!

    Yea first person is for immersion, make you feel like you're in a mech. Of course it would only work if you see your weapons coming out in front of you like in hawken or mech warrior rather than like a "bumper" view for racing games where you see nothing.

    If I have to beg, I will :)

    I want a cockpit view as well. That would make MechWarrior fans (like me and many others) incredibly happy. Please add it as an option for this game. It would be like adding more challenging, more dynamic gameplay. Hardcore gamers would love it.

    Well you could make the cockpit view actually just a basic cockpit. You wouldn't need to see the guns to know they are there. Similar to the cockpit view of a driving game where you see the steeringwheel/dash/etc but not the tires or other hidden from view parts.

    Anyway, thanks for making MW1&2 free. I never tried the series and now I can jump in and see what's what. If I like it, MW3 could easily be a purchase.

    Thanks for your replies.
    I also like MechWarrior and its cockpit.
    I thought it doesn't need a first person view because of the small screen of mobile devices.
    Maybe.. Was I wrong..?
    OK, I will add it.
    I also want to see my cockpit.:D

    Thank you.
