My wish list...

Light: Wolfhound
Medium: Phoenix Hawk
Heavy: Warhammer
Assault: Battlemaster

I would be happy with some nicely done "reseen" designs for all of those.

It needs to be a decent heavy mech. I'm pretty unimpressed with the heavy mech selection so far.

Say wut? I'm not a heavy mech pilot but I'd say that the Catapult and it's K-2 varient are two nice mechs. You've basically got a Missile Boat and a Laser Boat in one mech.

So what do heavies need? A ballistic-heavy brawler? I could go for that.

Edit: Not to mention the Dragon which is a great medium heavy. haha

for the love of god the only thing i will ask is for a scorpian

[Cbass57484]

bring on the Warhammer

[JHare]

Well, the Dev's aren't stupid. So far 3/2/2/2, L/M/H/A

Lights - Commando/Jenner/Raven
Madiums - Hunchback/Centurion
Heavies - Dragon/Catapult
Assault - Atlas/Awesome

LC - Commando/Atlas
DC - Jenner/Dragon
FS - Centurion/
CC - Raven/Catapult
FWL -
General - Hunchback/Awesome

So my guess is next mech is a medium. And it'll be a fire support. Since we already have a Davion medium I would say it will be the Trebuchet so we have a FWL design.

Mech 11 would be a heavy and it would be a general purpose heavy. Dragon is a speedy heavy and the Cat is fire support. So I see it being the Orion. That also means a really easily customized design with varied hardpoints.

Mech 12 is an assault, and my guess is a support. Toss up between a Zeus or a Longbow

[Paran01ac]

I want a Shadow Hawk just like Grayson Carlyle piloted to be next mech featured.

Also do you guys think that the center torso of a dragon is far ahead than is should be? http://www.sarna.net/wiki/Dragon

[Whiskey 423]

I hope it's either a medium scout mech or a heavy workhorse

We have two slow but tough mediums and two very frail heavies

Nah, that looks about right to me, and besides that's how it's always looked in the concept art.

Meh I can't wait till the clans come. They have three of my favorite mechs!!!!

Timber Wolf
Cauldron-Born
Bushwacker

Guess I'm not too familiar with pre-clan mechs. I'll have to look into it more.

Sorry to burst that bubble, but the Bushwacker is an IS mech. You might be thinking of the Vulture (Mad Dog to Clanners).

Yeah I got mixed up. What I meant was I can't wait till the clans come so we can use three of my favorite mechs. I did't mean to say that bushwacker was a clan mech. Sorry.

It's cool. Besides, the bushwhacker is one of my favorite mechs as well

[Christopher Dayson]

Well 40 ton Cicada is a nice mech 10. Wasn't what I was expecting but I can live with it. am glad to see a fast medium and it has hard points I can work with for sure.

[Applejack]

Freaking Cicada. Way out left-field, but I think I just found my 'Mech of choice for MWO.

40 tons and it has a good engine speed.

[Sporklift]

I always forget about the Cicada.

I am not a fan of either design. When I think of all the mechs they can be using and I get a Dragon, Catapult and now a Cicada ......ugh.
I'm hoping they are saving the best for last.
I know alot of the mechs I love are the unseen. I have no expectations they will be in game, but can a brother get an Orion, Grasshopper, Panther, Wolfhound, Enforcer, Trebuchet, Banshee-S or King Crab for the love of Kerensky !!!!!!

[Mike Silva]

Wait...... Cicada? That's an interesting choice. But if they're not going to give us the Locust I guess it works.....

[Jericho917]

I would love to see the Black Knight!!! but I also wana see the Wolfhound and maybe the Enforcer or Blackjack?

Well that screws up my guessing streak... of choosing mechcommander mechs as the ones that would be added.
I was right up to the last one, Raven.

Knowing the devs, they just might have picked the Cicada just to mess with ya
