I'm very much MW2, DOS era when it comes to BattleTech - that game had a lot of class.

MW3 was simply absymal. I've never seen a game so lacking (and with so many publishers involved either). MW4 with it's "plot" and tacky cutscenes was another disaster for me. I can't believe how they dumbed these games down and took the flexibility away from the player. I also hated the departure from the clans in MW2 to the gung ho IS in MW3 and MW4 especially. And then there's the fact that MS bought FASA back in 2000...
