Oh, there's a thread now? I was under the impression that the forums themselves were the area for wild speculation...

I speculate that this thread will officially die when Omigir goes on vacation. Then, someone new to the forums will start a new one without searching.


D: This is my vacation!

^Win.

I speculate the clans will never invade. They nuked themselves. :3 we are forever stuck with current technology.

When the clans are due to invade, devs will announce that no players will be able to fight for the clans against the inner sphere.

They will have solved the problem of programming AI routines by instead using the money from the founder's pack sales to train an army of Chinese professional mechwarriors who will fight in character as the clans because it's their full-time well paid job to do so.

Any player insisting on fighting as a clan warrior instead of just collecting clantech salvage can, but they will have to learn Mandarin and move to China; this will filter out all but the most committed clanners.


The Clans:

Hmm... lets try some...

The Urbanmech will be in game, but its cockpit is replaced by a grill, turning it into a 20 ton mobile BBQ. The Atlas will be given a special skin consisting of a "kiss the cook" apron and a chef's hat. Jenner kebab anyone?

Hunchbacks come with a bright pink carebear paintjob as default and get bonus xp when hugging enemy mechs.

I wildly speculate that when merc corps will count as their own faction when a planet is being contested. At any point, even mid battle, the hiring house can decide that they don't want to pay them and attempt to kill the mercs. The mercs can also choose to change sides too, though. Oh, the drama!

More released mechs:

Z0M-B3:
Medium mech that mounts a special immediate range weapon. Kills made with this weapon causes the killed mech to respawn as a bot controlled Z0M-B3. A Z0M-B3 can only be permanently killed by destroying the cockpit, but it is very vulnerable to flamers.

D0V4-K11N:
Heavy mech that can mount any two weapons. Entering text into chat in ALL CAPS activates any of a variety of special abilities. For instance, "HAXOR" would activate bullet time, and any flaming fires a giant fireball at the flamed individual (watch the friendly fire!). It can also blind players by putting a high-tech fruit basket on their cockpit.

P0WN-S74R:
Special 1000T quad mech. In addition to normal mech weapons it has a long cool down energy weapon that deals 9001 damage and reduces killed mechs to ROFLishously tiny gibbs. You also may want to be careful about firing it down. It has almost not cockpit armor, but the only way to hit it is to run a light mech up an inexplicable trough up its back. But don't worry about that Achilles's heel, it'll be protected by a chronically depressed light mech pilot with asthma. Just don't question his abilities or he may find your lack of faith disturbing. . .

there will be 4 custom skins that every one will have to buy. HAVE TO
Hurban Mech: Shiny black with a pointy toothed grin and slanted mean eyes to make it look like a bullet
Hunchback: Will have a red upper body and blue lower with two blue racing stripes that go up either side of the torso, same collor as the lower body.
Centurion, Will be the same as the hunchback, but less cool and green.
And the Atlas will be mostly yellow with a center beige spot on the center torso and green back.

I hereby willfully speculate that all Founders tags will be removed by the end of the next week. This is to restore equality among us forum users.

PS: Omigir, Luigi-Centurions are way cooler than fat Mario-Hunchbacks :P

I speculate that Swaybacks come from a sick hunchback bitting another one, thus passing the illness on D: Also, swaybacks hunger for mechwarriors and will crack into the heads of other mechs to get them. (Double D: !)


Also.. I speculate that Wild Speculation will make it's way back into the general population...

I wildly speculate that you NEED A HUG! Not from me though, knuckle bump?

I wildly speculate that the Mayans used their calender as a feint! The world will actually end sometime in 3050! Or 306X, can never keep those two straight.

I wildly speculate that the Feb. 5th patch will include CONTENT! And not just that magnificently obvious "shoot me" brick of a hero mech!

They will implement the game's first 1v1 mode and map! It will have hills, and sunsets, and pretty flowers! Just in time for Valentine's Day, two mech warriors will have the opportunity to, romantically, attempt to murder each other for fun and profit without worrying about teammates or objectives!

That's not all, there will be a new piece of equipment: an active camouflage system!

Dude A - "I think I saw something move over there."
Dube B - "Its just a rosebush, let's go!"
Dude A - "Hmmm. . . OK."
