Why did this happen when I am at work!

[Kartr]

Anyone put the image together yet?

[Stoneblade]

Apparently the url listed in the messages is about something happening on June 4th. Sounds exciting, but a great tease anyways.

Artemis spelled backwards is Simetra. Coincidence ... or Conspiracy!?

[Stoneblade]

BTW, after looking at the picture for a minute, I'm willing to bet its an Annihilator.

The only file that downloads when requested with the wget command so far is the hellowworld.cpp

And that's either because the server does not have a mime-type associated with .cpp and instead offers to server it to the user, or it is an intended mechanic as (so far) the only file type that can return information to the user.

The distorted image has a Commando in it. If you look at the lower right side of the image you can see the upside down head and left arm of a Commando pretty clearly. Directly above that at about the middle of the image you can see the arm and what must be the torso repeated only right side up. Above that may be a hip and center torso of a Commando, though that's not nearly as well defined as the other fragments of the Commando. Rest of it looks like gibberish but might be the standard backdrop the 'Mechs concepts are placed on, or it might be a new background? Though I'm pretty sure that's the Atlas in the background of the Commando concept roughly halfway up and just to the left of centerline.

This I know. However, this is a different case - it's readily apparent that the image is composed of pixelated versions of at least 4 previously released mechs. There are no unknown mechs in the image...for now. I wouldn't put it past them to subtly insert new images - but as it stands right now - it's misdirection.

Thank you! You see the other 'mechs too! I don't think it's misdirection so much as people taking it the wrong way. It's bits and pieces possibly obscuring something, in my opinion. Also, I forgot that the leg was a Cicada and not a Catapult, good catch there. But it's all definitley released already if you bother to look closely
How does anyone see an Annhialator in this thing O.o

Now that I've looked again, I see the AC of the Dragon and the ENTIRE upper torso of the Catapult in a small square near it. Unless there's going to be a miniature Cat protruding from it's shoulder like a pilotable turret, I don't think it's any kind of Cyclops or what have you.

So maybe I'm a little bitter cause I wasn't one of the lucky people that got into beta...... But this annoys me. I'm sure it's cute for people not following the game. Just give me some info about the game or show me a mech. Post this crap on IGN, Gamespy or whatever.

[Banditman]

It's a scrambled picture of a Sunder imo. Look at the arms.
