Yeah - there are images of a catapult and a commando in there - it's all junk images meant to distract us guys.


The question is why, though? I mean, I can understand them pulling a prank like this as April Fools, but so close to E3? The very fact that it has its own webpage with a countdown means it has some sort of significance.

Or it's the new salvage system that lets you take parts of half blow apart mech frames and merge them together. It's a Commapult... or Catmando.. or some other fusion of those words.

I hope I am wrong but look at the Commando Picture then look at that picture notice the arm and what might be the head. I look forward to finding out. I do hope that I am wrong.

They last time they did this, was with the mechbay screenie. They images that made it to hard to tell what it was. No use trying to figured it out.

I for one think it will be a timberwolf being crushed by an atlas.

The picture above the countdown is definitely a mech, but I'm sure there is much more to this than the final mech unveil. Perhaps a new video!

Previous users are correct, it is simply a scrambled picture of the commando. The code name "Artemis" is a guidance system that makes LRMS more accurate, a somewhat vague description for the website.

The countdown seems likely to corroborate with E3.

No doubt Artemis is something - I meant the scrambled image is misdirection and misinformation. Maybe Artemis is like Operation Inception - but the world wide version.

Ok well its actually a mix-n-match of low low res pictures of a lot of the mechs that are already being shown. I'm seeing the right arm of the centurion with the AC10 and the left arm of the commando, among others. It's just a joke they made to tease you all with massive speculation. Go ahead and pull up the picture of the centurion and look at both pics side by side. You'll see the centurions right arm on the top middle of the pic.

I'm afraid he is right guys. I can pretty clearly make out the Centurions right arm and it's most likely the Commando's groin flipped around just to the right of that.

I'm hoping it goes to their E3 demo video at the end of the countdown.

I really had my hopes up for the ANH-1X Annihilator (which was the big IS assault mech from MW3 everyone worried about) but perfect blue has saddened me :unsure:
