BattleTech

An unmissable strategy gem that will unquestionably keep you playing one more contract. If you like mechs or tactical strategy games you’ll have a great time here whether you are a newcomer to the universe or not. BattleTech gets my full recommendation.

I don’t think anyone is going to call BattleTech a perfect game, but it is a fun one that brings the IP back into the spotlight with a game that does justice to the lore, atmosphere, and tactical depth that the tabletop and video games were build on. Though its pace might be a bit slow for some, and the RNG can be frustrating in the worst ways, the game has too much going right for it to let those issues hold it back.

Return to the future to tin monster wars has its flaws, but even so Battletech grabs your attention and does not let go. Lovers of robotic battles will be definitely intrigued. [Issue#286]

Battletech's intricate components ultimately foster a fascinating wealth of nuanced systems that build a uniquely strenuous, detailed, and thoroughly rewarding tactical strategy game.

A good, suprisingly epic conversion of the tabletop. Presentation is a little lackluster, though. And it could have used some more polishing. But fun nonetheless.

All systems nominal. But it could have been oh so much better.

While the story in BattleTech takes some interesting turns, and the combat is slow if serviceable, the game chugs along as playable with occasional moments of greatness. The major issues come from how combat is both too slow at times and too random, plus there are too many numbers to sort through for anyone short of the very dedicated. The structural problems are too ingrained in the game to easily fix, which is unfortunate as there is actually a solid package underneath the problems.

The stars of the game are the mechs and the ability to customize them. Since launch a lot of the slow downs in the game have been corrected and the time between turns move faster. Overall, a great experience for fans of turn based strategy games.

Tout juste au dessus de la moyenne car assez dur sur le long terme et avec des succès trop longs ou durs à obtenir. Dans le fond le jeu est pas mal du tout à part ça

There's a lot to like in HBS's Mecha manager, but the uneven presentation, poor explanation, heavy use of RNG in combat, and underwhelming basic structure shove Battletech a bit too far into "hardcore franchise/genre fans only" territory.

Pretty slow and boring to play imo. The story was kind of interesting though with the animations, however, there is also a lot of word dumping, and all the story aspects slow down gameplay moments where you actually get to play the game, as most of it so far is watching/reading. The graphics are also kind of bad and has poor optimization. It was fine for me as I have 9950x3d 5070ti but it could be struggling on older hardware when it shouldnt be with the simple **** me there is just so much other games of this genre type to try that are prob better. The fighting aspects were pretty slow too as all the animations cutscenes bog down the gameplay, maybe theres an option to skip? But I didnt look for it.

I was disappointed with the game. Slow and rather boring. I know plenty of better tactics games.
