It is true, every 'Mech can play every role.

Unless Paul is piloting it.

Cause then the "Suck" role gets unlocked, which oddly Paul has every Mech and chassis maxed out in. Don't let him make achievement suggestions. We'll get things like "Everyone's Pink on the Outside — Field an entire company of Mechs with a solid pink paintjob."

Typical dev, leaping to defend his own personal OP mech.

Paul can't be Jelly because Jelly died on the little excercise wheel and Natalie Portman buried him in her back yard.

Pretty sure being burried in Natalie Portmans front yard is more preferable.

Ok... confirmed by the engineers... we slowed the Jenner down 35% and slowed the rotational speed of the torso down by 25%. How does it play for you now?

Haha I approve of this message...

My Jenner is dying to Hunchbacks, now. Nerf the Hunchback!

I for one welcome my new Nerf Jenner as it will surely be able to take more damage than my traditional Wet Tissue Jenner.

[Wraith 1]

In MW2Mercs, the first thing I do is trade my Commando for a Jenner or a Panther. Jenner was one of my favorite 'mechs in that game, using it's default variant I could defeat much larger groups of 'mechs. It's greatest weak point was the fact that it was REALLY easy to headshot if you knew what you were doing, making it a perfect strike 'mech for experienced pilots, but almost as bad as an Urbanmech in terms of durability if you couldn't shield the cockpit area.

I'm waiting for the bubble-wrap Jenner, myself. I hear it has Reactive Armor that makes popping sounds when hit.

Please spell "please" properly.

Aside from presumed sarcasm, you can't honestly think because 3 developers chose a light Mech that THAT makes it in need of a nerfing. Sun Tzu said SPEED and POWER were 2 deciding factors of battle. Jenners have speed, but not power. As with all battles, if multiple Jenners are attacking a single enemy, they have power (due to combined arms) and speed; you'll be in for a world of hurt.

While I think the OP was trolling, it does seem to be that most here are missing something. The JR7-F Jenner is the up-armored variant of the standard JR7-D Jenner. I think that we just got confirmation of a third variant design.

And I think you're missing the fact that the Mech Lab as per the Dev Blog last week indicates you can make a JN7-F from the JN7-D. <.<
