Whereas World of Tanks (www.worldoftanks.com) is my bread and butter...MechWarrior Online is my Crazy Dessert!
There are just so many mechs available for play, and there are so many weapon groups for your right hand, and heat management to worry about (overheating from shooting too many lasers too quickly) that if you are not already a piano player, you will be by the time you master this game.
If you are NEW to first person shooters...I highly recommend www.WorldofWarships.com (Boats). Boats can be just as fun, but the pacing is a little slower so new players will have a better time because simply put, you will be able to get more shots than you will be able to against pro players in a difficult game like MechWarrior Online.
MechWarrior Online lets me access the full potential of my mind with light mechs equipped with jump jets. These babies zip around the battlefield like race cars. Throw some lasers on them and jump jets, and they can soon test the level of control of the driver.
