MechWarrior Online continues the unstoppable march towards its official release date, and has picked up some new friends along the way. The latest patch for the free-to-play mech battler bumps the player count, with the previous 8v8 limit now raised to 12v12. Piranha have released a video, showing the effect an extra eight mechs can have on a battlefield. Hint: more lasers.
The patch – which is now live – also adds the “Golden Boy” hero mech, and introduces a “First Victory of the Day” system. Players will receive a 2x XP multiplier for their first daily win with each mech type – rewarding those prepared to cycle through multiple mechs per 24 hour cycle.
You can find the rest of the update’s changelist on the MechWarrior patch page.
Thanks, PCGamesN.
