They tried this in MechWarrior2 and 3 and it didn't take.


Side note, I hate that when I put MW3, I'm afraid someone will think Call of Duty.

One of the reasons i hate acronyms referring to games.
That and Star Wars The Force Unleashed always came over as an insult.

I think if a MechWarrior chooses to follow the path of the Aspect of Warp Spider then that should be an option!
Haters.

But I also want assault class mechs to have to option to mount a giant vacuum that sucks in smaller mechs and absorbs their powers

Beat me to it, lol. He only has one post, guys. It was pretty funny though.

IMHO, suggesting crap like that should result in a month forum ban!
Additionally to an "Late Access Key" for the Game. I'm not shure, would "Winter 2012" be a rightful "gift"?

I want to replace my Hatamoto-Chi's vibro-blade with a light saber. It should look like a rainbow.


I will pay real life money.

This^

The Rainbow L:ight Warriors of the Combine will also need a partial shield that looks like a Rainbow Cape to prevent our dishonorable enemies from trying to backstab us!

I want my firemoth to sport a Naval PPC and still run at 200kph when MASCing

[Garth Erlam]

How about a Balius that has rainbow-firing jumpjets and sparkle-making AC's?

[ManDaisy]

you forgot the head mounted flamer at the mouth that shoots pixie stardust

[DocBach]

also their should be kameleon camoflage like predater that changes your mech to look like the background and makes you invesible on rader. to make it fair though u should only be able to use lazers while u have the predater camo on.

[AcesHigh]

{serious}Wow, someone posts their idea of epic gundam-esque fighting and every jumps on the hate train. {/serious}


I wanna take this propose mech, mount my jumpjets facing rearward in a V-shape cluster, so instead of just jumping upwards I can use JJ as a "sprint" beyond MASC, then let's add a giant electrified cattelprod melee weapon, phallus shaped and electric pink! Chugga-chugga-CHOO-CHOO!

It would be a sad day indeed when the BTU got shields and teleporting mechs.

Last time I checked the BTU was in a recession on tech.

There are shields in Battletech, but they function more like static barriers, and only protect against PPCs.

If this is included, even as buyable DLC, I'm in.

Create a mech that is has


- very light armor
- nanotech auto repair function
- low power shields
- weapon load very low, or melee fists. If use fists then extra space for better support equipment.

benefits:
- very fast movements
- instant short range teleport, can repeat right after warping out, thus travel fast
- can hit enemies without being hit themselves, but if you get hit it's bye bye really fast.
- exellent protection against guided missiles.

Reasons for such mech:
- another way to play meachwarrior. Not the same path "bigger is better"
- exellent recon mech

Sounds a bit ****.

Let the Zone of Enders/Armored Core dudes have those things.

Let Mechwarrior be Mechwarrior.

[Exo Terminus]

why not just make a mech that is really small (so small that you cant see it) but it has 30 AC20's that have unlimited ammo. it can also one shot an atlas. and turn into a VTOL and fly into the sun.

[Corsair114]

Gotta be honest, it sounds like a fine, fun, and dandy 'mech. Would probably be a riot to drive.

I just think it'd be so far out of step with the setting that'd it be like that guy that shows up in jeans and t-shirt to a black-tie wedding but isn't really well liked or funny. It's just gonna stick out in all the wrong ways.

In SLAI most machines carried some form of cloaking tech and it made for very nerve-wracked and exciting fights, but here? No, it's just not the setting or game for it.
