MNC coming to Steam
Store page promises dedicated servers, a level editor, and a Beta for pre-purchasers. Sounds fantastic, I've been wanting to play this title for a while now, but lacking a 360 has done me no good. Greatly looking forward to it now, however.
I was actually hoping this game would come to PC not too long ago. Now it's true. I'll probably pre-purchase it depending on how big my backlog is when the beta hits.
I think I'll re-buy it on PC. The 360 community is pretty small, and the fact that noone communicates really hurts it.
I'm conflicted. On the one hand, I've thought about getting this a few times and I'm certainly more interested in the PC for it.
But...Counterstrike...
" ...they seriously want 15 bucks for a DOTA Clone? "Dude, MNC is a 3rd person shooter. DOTA is a mod for an RTS game. Just because parts of it are DOTA inspired doesn't mean its a straight clone.
Cool. Looked like a game that could use mouse and keyboard. I mean, I don't like dual analog for F/TPS in general, but MNC looked especially tank-like in how it controlled to me. Probably something to do with the sensitivity and the ramping on the sticks.
Can't say I'm too interested in it, though. I'm a fan of neither DotA nor small-scale multiplayer shooters, and watching Giantbomb's TNT of MNC gave me a pretty lukewarm impression of the main competitive game mode. The coop survival mode looked neat, but... I don't think I'd pay even $5 just for that part of the game. Egh.
Well that's neat. A little strapped for cash as I finally bought some new winter boots (my feet are fucking ecstatic), but this looked like a really fun game on the 360, so this makes me really happy it's coming to steam.
Mod support perhaps?
" When does the beta start? Does anyone know? Consider it a prepurchase though. I was all intent to get this on 360 before mine RRoD'd. "Think on the 18th and will last until it comes out
Any chance of a PSN release? This along with Super Meat Boy I am jealous of as a PS3 owner.
Sony fucked us over with Super Meat Boy though : (
" When does the beta start? Does anyone know? Consider it a prepurchase though. I was all intent to get this on 360 before mine RRoD'd. "Beta starts this week on the 16th.

@Xabu: Interesting interview, I found this quote especially interesting:
Some TF2 character joining MNC?Just today, we had this crazy idea for a special guest character that just makes total sense in the world of Monday Night Combat (at least to us). We ran the idea by creators of this special guest and they loved it. So said special guest character will be making an appearance when the game launches on January 17th. I know, I know, stop teasing but it’ll be awesome!
