You want clan tech now? Prepare to be one-shotted across the map more often. Way too much fun :-p

The clans took one look at these forums and decided we weren't worth saving/conquering. :)

I'm hoping they get CW rolling and we can have a year or so to establish some faction territories so that when the Clans show up it actually MEANS something.

How dumb would it be to release CW in March and then have the Clans come in like a month?

that would be all, thx :)

I can't remember why, but March 5th is rolling around in my head. I think thats the first day of Major operations starting against the IS. The green parrots don't turn up till nearer the end of the month (supply chain issues if i remember correctly)

Hope you're ready for disappointment!

Did you guys not read the Ask the Dev 32 (I think it was 32) answers?

They said, we aren't even getting an announcement about clans until May. And that's just an announcement, don't expect clan anything in-game until at latest December, or more likely, next year.

"Actually, from my last reading... it's around August, when 'Clan Invasion' (he means Op. Revival) actually starts hammering hard on the Inner Sphere, we might scale our timeline around that. Basically, don't expect the 'Clan Invasion' in April."

Pretty much off the map untill CW. Note: Here be Splatcats!

But seriously. I'm pretty sure they (the marketing department :) ) won't make a Mechwarrior game w/o the Madcat that would only appeal to old school BT nerds like me. Life is cheap 'mech aren't (supposed to be).

And was the person I was quoting talking about the podcast?... reading is hard. That is operation revival according to lore.

My guess is that clans will be ready to play for the battle of tukkayid.

Don't worry about it, just keep practicing and you'll get it. Yes, operation Revival. One of the developers talks about it in the podcast.

Not in 30, 31, or 32

In 30 they did say..

Q: [insert question about Clans]
A: We are not ready to discuss any details surrounding the clans at this time, including all edge case questions about technology, power, designs, concepts, etc. We are actively designing these features at the moment.


And i think what most people are after are the ISN new flashes about it, at least for a start.

Pointless to argue what its in the lore. It's quite apparent PGI doesn't have enough resources to roll out with them in correct time. Expect them to take some liberties in taking their own time.

I think Bryan may have edited his post, he's done it in the past. He definitely mentioned the words "Final Concept" and "May/April" I distinctly remember reading that.

Actually... they pretty much did will.

On that note, the first 3-4 months of the invasion were, with rare exceptions, one sided and hopeless. If you want your character's epitaph to be "ejected from burning mech, accepted into janitor caste, met end while wielding plunger and bristle brush on backwater planet" you want this fight.

(also: travel times for people and news across the Sphere is generally measured in *months*. It will take weeks for the FRR at large to learn that it's fringe worlds are falling, and the invasion propogates almost as fast as the news will. I'm certain that the command circuits and HPG network will have the successor lords enlightened soon enough, but it will likely be months before the wretches under the thumb of houses Liao and Marik are aware that there is even a war in progress.

And I still wasn't commenting about the podcast, not sure why that's so hard for you to understand.

(yes I know that they want it to form it around august which is sadly wrong.)

...You were commenting on the podcast. You hit the quote button, and started posting about March.
