As Raalic said. There's nothing new on the picture itself right now. The countdown is more important.

What could it be? First unseen mech? A map? A new video? Announcement of participation during E3?


One can only guess...

Spoiler

Grab your tinfoil hats!

Is Tin Foil Hat the name of the new mech? If so, I wants.

That part that some people think is a piece of a Commando...look at it upside down. Cyclops?

It's quite clearly the upper assembly of the Commando concept art. Let your eyes follow the light grey/green of the 'Mech. It should be quite visible.

E3 participation has already been confirmed.

Move the centre piece up and flip it?

I looked over the source code for the page. Nothing out of the ordinary unfortunately. Although I do find it interesting that for the list of countries, Vatican City was listed (yes I know it's its own country). That'd be awesome seeing archbishops forming a mech corps, hehe.

As long as it's not the Swiss Guards >.<

Swiss mercs were banned by international treaty for being so badass :-/

Huh...

[borisof007]

Also, looking at some of the individual squares, some of them look like they're zoomed in more than others (or just at a lower resolution than others).

Additionally, I wonder if the picture will start to come clearer in the coming days. As in, will each passing day make that picture more clear and more rearranged? ONLY TIME WILL TELL. DUN DUN DUHHHHHHHHHH.

Indeed, those 3 Mechs all have an Artemys IV Variant in common...

They also are Light, Medium and Heavy Chassis...

Should we expect an Assault with an Artemys IV Variant ? Like an Archer or a Stalker next week ? /drool...

The Stalker would be the only 85-ton assault 'Mech with an Artemis FCS in one of its variants - that I could think of.

I think it's an Annihilator.

Or not

Props to Kyle and the crew for all this community interaction. This game is getting some momentum!

[Sir Iron Duke]

Maybe at least a pack of Mechs from the Clans?
I mean, the models launched so far are only Inner Sphere Tech, and the game history is in the Clan Invasion, I`m Right?

[Garth Erlam]

It's < REDACTED >

The image is a chopped up commando. Lower right corner is the head, upside down.

I don't think the Commando is the announcement.

Keep guessing

Are these all mechs that have Artemis? (Commando, Catapult, Centurion?) Maybe the next mech will also have Artemis?

Edit: My bad, Archer is a Heavy heh.

I think we have something here.

This would be a terrible scrambled picture if you placed enough content into the image to allow it to be decoded at the 5+ day mark.

Personally I might wait till the less then 1 day to slip in components of the actual image.
