What players get is the combat at an early stage. The setting is a wasteland where nations have nearly disappeared and factions and corporations fight over resources; the player is an independent mercenary betrayed by an employer, stripped of money and fame, and working back from zero with one machine. Missions include sabotage, defense, interception battles, and base raids, and mission information may be inaccurate or deliberately false. A defense mode against endless enemy waves sits alongside a nonlinear campaign.\u003c/p\u003e","blueskyPost":"MECH OPS 2092 ships a playtest with the hangar, story, and sound all missing.
