I was really excited when I heard about the reboot a year or so ago.

Now that I hear its labelled "Mechwarrior Online" and going the "Free to Play" route, I'm skeptical. I love the Mechwarrior series, but I can only hope they don't meddle it up in an online genre with micro transactions.

From everything I've been hearing, this is sounding like it's supposed to ACTUALLY be more "Free to Play", not "Build Your Own" as I've taken to calling the microtransaction bullshit.  Also, from the FAQ:

Q. Will DLC be offered in the new MechWarrior? Online? game?

A. Not in the way that you imagine it. Content will be pushed to you via the game patcher. Once a patch has been applied, new game content is immediately available to you. Larger patches could be considered expansion packs but again, it's pushed to you the player at no cost.

Win.

So essentially, League of Legends type F2P, Mechwarrior style. I'm okay with this.
