EDIT: 5/1, 12:22PM EST, the website seems to be having some problems. No surprise, considering this is a completely free game, and people will be wanting to get in on this action. However, I guarantee you that this link is correct, and in time it will be working again.

EDIT #2 : 5/1, 5:30PM EST, website still saying that it failed to connect. Patience is a virtue, eh?

EDIT #3 5/2, 5:00PM EST. Still down. At least the error message is different.

EDIT #4 5/3, 1:30 PM EST. Servers are up! GO NOW!

From the website....

"Studio MekTek, in association with Smith and Tinker, INC., Virtual World Entertainment, LLC, Catalyst Game Labs, and Microsoft Games, is happy to announce the release of Mechwarrior4 Free.

Getting started is easy. Just download and install MTX, MekTek's free content delivery and updating system. Once installed, simply click the Games Available tab, select Mechwarrior4: Mercenaries and click install. The game will download and install, all within MTX, and as updates become available, MTX will help you keep your game up to date.

Once again, a big thanks to Microsoft Games and all of our partners for making this free release possible, and a special thanks to all of you in the community.

Servers are still getting their asses kicked, the site seems to be dead. Guess I'll wait until tomorrow and give it another shot.
 
I was wondering when this would happen. They anounced it a long time ago and I'm glad to see that it is now free. Has any word come out about the next game?
 
Appreciate the info! Sucks the servers are down. Oh well hopefully they'll be back up soon, I've been waiting a while for them to do this :D
 
Starting to get the 403 Forbidden message now instead of the failure to connect. Ugh......may have missed it.
 
The website came back up around 5am this morning. I suggest get up early and try to get it before work or school :)
 
I went straight to MekTek's downloader website and got the downloader. The download says it will take 10 hours or so. I'll let you know if it works in 10 hours? :whistle2:?
