I've been a big fan of the whole BattleTech franchise from close to the beginning, so I've always had a strong bias toward the games for better or for worse. I have to agree, though, that the campaigns are way short and, IMO, a little too easy. The Chicago BattleTech Center and hours of playing the original MechWarrior PC game have made me prefer the cockpit view, but being able to watch the mech in 3rd person makes sense. My only other gripe is that same as my gripe with most modern games: no bots in multiplayer. Sure, there are a bunch of folks that hate bots, but I like them added in the mix when I want a two-player battle. In the end, though, adding in the ability to run around, plant bombs and hijack mechs was a very cool move for this series.
