If you remember, when we got the plan for march the last Wednesday had a pretty interesting line attached to it: "Even I will be surprised at this release."
Now being 3 days until the release, it is perfect time to start discussing, what could it be.

I think it will be a mech release, but the mech itself was a mystery to Garth for some reason (unfinished at the time, taken from our surveys,...). That is, of course, very "normal" and because I can't think of anything else than BETA, I need something that will actually happen (since I'm terrible at predicting events).

What do you think is in store for us?

Well it is the last Wednesday of the month so I would expect there to be a 'Mech as that seems to be their standard release format, it is probably like you said Garth simply does not know which one it is..

4 Unseen mechs, the 4 poll winning mechs, or Open Beta.

One can dream...

Yeah one can dream, that does seem rather far fetched

What did you say?

It's gonna be the winner of the "final mech showdown!" poll thread. Looks like the raven.

I'm inclined to agree.

One of 3 things:

• An Unseen
  
• An Urbanmech
  
• Closed BETA announcement

[Ghostrider45]

Got news for you have 69 Days untill the the game is to be released not 3 days!!!!!!

[osito]

the last Wednesday is usually mech release day. I think it will be another assault mech. If it is i am hoping for one of 3 mechs. Victor, battlemaster, or cyclops.

[3Xtr3m3]

Scout mech=Raven

Medium=Dervish

Heavy=Caesar

Assault=Devastator

I am guessing it will be one of those.

[karish]

its going to be a Locust with the Madcat weapons loadout becase some one did the math

Or better yet all of those, I know wishful thinking but a guy can dream.

[Helmer]

Although I hope there's more to it , it's probably another 'mech release that had not been decided on at the time.

um no. sorry, so so wrong here. OPEN beta is on the way this SUMMER, the devs even have stated for the record: PUBLIC RELEASE DATE TBD

[trycksh0t]

Going into full-stupid-seculation-mode, my guess is a working beta of the MechLab for us to play with and test.

[Helmer]

Summer 2012 = between June 20th and September 22nd


That's barring any delays .


Cheers.

which is still only for open beta. While I am all for diving headlong off the dropship into open beta, I still am forced to wait for that blasted ramp door to open!

I have been thinking a little about this too, & I think they may release more than one Mech at a time.
