You CAN Mind Control Mechtoids.

[Rox]

How much did Ananda Gupta actually work on this game? I'm beginning to think that a lot of the things he said were coming out of his ass than his mouth. He was the one who first said that Mechtoids couldn't be Mind Controlled because they were "too robotic".

MECs can be mindcontrolled.

Why not mechtoids? it is only fair.

Yeah, well, Ananda said otherwise in prerelease interviews.

WELL HE LIED.
The development team is not just him. Cut him some slack.

And it's also entirely possible that when he said that, it was true. Had the game been finished by that point?

You'd think the lead developer would know everything that's going on with the expansion.
I'm willing to bet that Meld isn't finite, either.

It was a week or two before release, I'm pretty sure the game was finished with production by then.

That interview was like a month ago, its entirely possible that they changed it since then. Most likely in response to fan reaction to the anouncement. I don't think it would have been that hard, it could have been as simple as changing one value in the code.

You can apparently stun them so mind controlling shouldn't be an issue.
