The MechWarrior Online team gave us the answers to Ask a Dev #17 yesterday..Questions discussed customization, alternate ammo “infernos” (again), server location.. and other topics.
Here’s the two questions I found most informative:
Q: OK now heres a question will the enviroments and enviroment structres like gas tanks and such be destructable and cause damage to near by mechs? [GunLocked]
A: Can I say maybe? Does that work? ‘Similar things are planned,’ how’s that? [Garth]Q: For my question. Are there any plans to have random map generation? [Rhyshealkan]
A: No. Despite what people think, the work involved and likelyhood of horrifically balanced maps is very high. [Garth]
