This is the game that got me into the Mechwarrior/Battletech franchise and lore. I still remember messing with the loadouts and paint schemes of every mech and even catching my late grandfather messing with one of my loadouts when I had to leave the computer for a bit. I still remember the soundtrack for this game, the tracks Wednesday 7(which also served as the main menu theme) and Aftermath still live in my brain and memories. I would love to see this on GOG so I could relive some of those memories and get to experience the expansions for this game that I never got to play as a kid.

The old MechWarrior 4: Vengeance, I remember having found it by chance in an old computer store in my city and decided to buy it because the price was very good. I spent hours and hours playing the game's story, even with almost no knowledge about the universe, but they were still very fun hours, just as I remember having suffered in the escort missions. It would be a good addition to GOG.
I skipped straight from mechwarrior 2 to this game when I was a kid and was blown away by the graphics. Playing this game with my sidewinder force feedback stick was fun for *years,* and it's a tragedy this doesn't run properly on a modern system. Also, it's got good old-fashioned FMV acting, can't beat that.

Maybe my favourite Mechwarrior game in my memory- when it came out the graphical leap seemed huge, the over-the-shoulder camera really showed off how good the mechs looked, and the way that the mechs would sway from side to side as they walked looked and felt much more realistic than the movement from previous titles. This title really cemented my love for the series!

It's like a friend to me This game lets you command a squad of Mercenary Mech pilots and you travel around doing what Mercenaries do, earning cold hard cash and not caring about anything else. It's wonderful !
Comming out of Mechwarrior 3, I really hated the textures of MW4 - everything was so much less detailed looking. But this game grows on you, and a community grew around it - Mektek, you take anyone that played this game and send them a youtube link to the MW4 OST track "Stutter Shark" and you just droped a nostalgia bomb on them. Would really love to see all the old Mechwarrior games on GoG, especially because a lot of them wont run with out a whole lot of third party patches and tweaks.

One of my very first PC games dad bought me. Endless hours of live action cheese and robots shooting each other. I will miss those days. More rock and metal in soundtracks. More good vs evil....and merc arenas.
Back in 2020, I fought like hell to get this game to run on Linux, through Lutris, using my old 2016 all-in-one PC. The game was ABSOLUTELY worth the effort, but it required certain specific files and tools which I worry will someday become impossible to access. Heck, the video guide I used even got put to private once. In one fell swoop, the game almost became impossible to know how to get working on modern Windows 10/11 PCs, at least in the form of a helpful *video* guide. This game, and the entire rest of the classic entries, deserve to be properly preserved in a more easily playable way.
