“Will you be a forgotten casualty – or a living legend?”

By the 31st century, humanity has spread to thousands of worlds, while a handful of powerful empires wage continual war for the right to rule the stars. Foremost among the weapons used in that struggle are BattleMechs. Loaded with auto cannons, missile launchers, lasers, and charged-particle beam weapons, these fusion-powered war machines of articulated armor stand upward of ten meters high. Piloting them are MechWarrior’s, the best, most intensively trained men and women available. Like the armored knights of an earlier age, MechWarrior’s are popular heroes, and their exploits are the stuff of legends.

MechWarrior: Living Legends (MWLL) is a total conversion modification for Crysis Wars. MWLL is at its very core a mix between a First Person Shooter (FPS) and a Simulation (SIM). This will be achieved through the use of a mixed arms massively multiplayer gaming experience where the player takes part in a battle using a variety of vehicles and weapons. MWLL is using the concepts pioneered by the “Battlefield” franchise and more recently Crysis, of a sandbox feel where you get to play what you want and how you want it. MWLL depicts the epic struggles between the two factions of Battletech “The Clans” and “The Inner Sphere”. Maps will typically have a mix of vehicles and infantry combat, using both of these to complete objectives as a team will be essential to winning rounds or campaigns in MWLL. In the project we will be bringing some of the legends of “MechWarrior” franchise back to life with new art and animations that do justice to these huge weapons of war and also do something that’s never be done before using the deep universe of Battletech. There are so many facets to Battletech and finally comes a title that is willing to explore them.

MechWarrior: Living Legends (сокр. MWLL) — разрабатываемый мод к компьютерной игре Crysis, над которым работает команда энтузиастов, называющаяся Wandering Samurai Studios. «MechWarrior: Living Legends» является неофициальной составной частью серии MechWarrior, действия игры происходят в вымышленной вселенной BattleTech.

Мод будет содержать только многопользовательский режим игры. В плане геймплея игра будет представлять собой смесь из симулятора, экшена, шутера от первого лица и мехов, с некоторыми элементами гонок на выживание. Игроку будут доступны для управления около 40 юнитов: мехи, танки, VTOL’ы, реактивные истребители и другие виды воздушной, наземной и надводной боевой техники.

«MechWarrior: Living Legends» является «тотальной» (полной) модификацией к шутеру от первого лица — игре Crysis, от разработчика — компании Crytek. Игра Crysis вышла в середине ноября 2007 года, и использует собственный игровой движок — CryEngine 2. Поэтому мод будет использовать этот же игровой движок.

Как и все моды, базирующиеся на коммерческих играх, «MechWarrior: Living Legends» является бесплатным для использования и распространяется через Интернет. Однако, для его запуска необходимо иметь установленную лицензионную копию игры Crysis.
