Has anyone else played hawken since it has been released on steam?
I remember playing when it was first release and remembered it being too fast for a strategic mech game, and too fast for an fps. Since then theyve upped the speed of gameplay by a lot, and its WAY more fun right now imo.
Its definitely worth another try if you havent played it in a while.
EDIT: found this clip on reddit. It kind of shows what you can do with the movement. http://www.twitch.tv/mrxacius/c/3853243

I played it a long time ago. It had huge amounts of negative mouse accel built in to make it 'feel' like you were piloting a mech, it played awful. Have they removed that?

turn rate is limited, if thats what you mean. Within the cone in front if you, you can aim however you want, but making big turns is limited. You can also do a quick 180 by moving back and pressing shift.
I remember really hating it when i first played it, but i didnt mind it in this go. Maybe they changed it? maybe i just knew to expect. Idk.

Meant too slow. It was a typo.

They fucked up the game from the way it was in beta/alpha. They also wiped all mech XP and items, making it a huge level grind again.
Would not recommend.

Namely weapon balance. The CRT's rockets used to do exponentially more damage, and were actually viable 1 on 1 against things like the Rocketeer or the Grenadier. The SMG Cannon used to be quite possibly the worst gun, but they nerfed the Assault Rifle and amped the SMG. The Raider's sniper used to do about 7-10% less dps than the Sharpshooter, but it was lowered to about 25-30% less.
Game is unplayable imo.
