I think that was the name. It was a pretty old game that AOL featured way back in the day. It was an actual online game before I had played on any others. Everyone was a mech and they ran around these huge environments and clored blocks on a team wasting the other team. It felt like a huge war. It ran lagless on the 28.8 that I used way back then. Anyone remember this?

i remember it, but never played it. I did play a mechwarrior clone. Forgot the name. Goes something like BattleMechs or something.

Hehe yeah, played that on my old 486 :) I didn't have sound becaus I couldn't install direct X(2.0?) on windows 3.1 :D
Fun game tho, for its time i guess :) I never played multiplayer on it, because i didn't have internet back then...so beats me where I got the thing in the first place (it was a demo)

Was that the one with the customizable mechs and the ore extractors and the hexagon blocks where you move and stuff?

No, your just dropped in a battlefield and you have to kill the people who are not your color.

I think that was Sierra's Mission force: Cyberstorm, where you had not only the customizable mechs but also bought different vat-grown cyborg pilots with varying skill levels. Fun game.

Ah yes, I remember Cyberstrike :) The game was free but you had to pay for the hourly AOL rate (this was back when there was no unlimited usage. Like 2.95$ an hour).

I loved it, NeverWinter Nights, and Air Warrior. AW f'ing owned.
