Yeah, the speed is the hardest thing to get used to.

Need to take mine out over the weekend.

[jper4]

so i broke down and bought myself a spider-urbie for halloween. first match 4 assists, 171 dmg and survived the match. much urbie envy was had by the team.

update- so best to warn my fellow urbie-ites. apparently the spider-urbie is too powerful for the game to handle. after the first match i played 4 more.

2nd match- finally connected in at the 14:45 mark of the match- KSed a firebrand with a lone ac10 round. was alive at 15% when the last enemy jenner decided to tear me apart while my three teammates ran around in circles nearby. 89 dmg, 1 kill 3 assists

3rd match- connected at the 14:37 mark. went 1 on 1 with a summoner, took off an arm and got CT to red internals before he killed me. 147 dmg, 0 assists

4th match- connected at the 13:15 mark- took a step and died.

5th match- connected at the 14:10 mark. very laggy, some warping. managed to survive the match but only did 65 dmg w/ couple assists

I was honestly surprised at how well I did. It was better than my first time in a commando or a locust I took a video I might post it later so you can laugh at my total inability to aim with an ac10. And the Ember's "what the ..." moment when I first hit it with that ac 10. First time an ember ever ran away from my spider!

Dressing up my Cicada 3M as an Urbie and dropping for the next hour. Without ECM.

Not sure my teammates will be able to handle this. Happy Hallowe'en!

Urbie trick-or-treating. I think it is the hero variant with hand actuators.

Tarogato, perhaps next time we meet in battle we will both be in Urbies

No one would mock you for dressing up as our mechanical savior.

Sadly, I have to be in costume as Leon the Professional (my gf will be Mathilda) No Urbie for me this halloween.

Never be sad about this.

I now have an Urbiespider.

Was going bananas trying to figure out why I had spare tonnage though - and then I remembered I had ferro equipped.

[jper4]

of course having made the urbie spider i also had to break down and make an AC20 cicada which is suprisingly fun as well and not completely a joke build either.

The Joke Cicada build, is the 2xAC 20 build.

oh yeah the true Boomcada is the dual ac20 that moves at 35kph with minimal armor and 1-2 tons of ammo. but i've never seen anyone running around with a single ac20. just stay with the big guys, shoot what they do and watch them get focused fired because obviously that's where the ac20 is coming from (as we know hitting "R" is apparently illegal in PUGland).

dire whale did that to me this weekend. was with an atlas and jager. started hitting him CT with the AC 20. he shoots the atlas, then the jager before he finally realizes they're not facing the direction he's getting hit from and aren't using ballistics. got the CT to yellow internals before he figured it out and killed me.

You're darn right, my AC/20 Cicada has ECM! It's my go-to build for farming XP with ECM Mechs (for future conversion) when I run my Cicada 3M. If I want to run energy weapons, I use my Raven 3L with PPC and ERPPC (XL225). However, the Cicada affords a greater prolonged rate of fire since it's so much cooler.

They should just put this mech in the game, give it ecm and see how many people actually buy it and play it.

Urbie P2W!!!

I would laugh so hard when people start saying that.

If it had ecm and 360 degree torso twist wih decent twist speed, people would be really surprised I think at how viable it is in the right hands.

[Maurice]

finally something to shoot at I guess I'll have to buy one

Yet another day passes with no Urbie.

[Logajam]

True. But the Urbanmech did make an excellent showing in the halloween art contest.

Besides what are you expecting....

Meanwhile at PGI headquarters Russ sits in his command chair of Evil, tapping his fingers together when he decides. "We shall release the Urbanmech this Sunday at 3:15Am. They will never see it comming. Mwa ha ha ha haa!"
