Paul, I'm not a coder 8...(

All three images can be worked together. The third can be overlaid on the first, and if you flip the second then expand it about 20%, you can overlay the 1+3 over that. Here's what they all look like together (not much so far but I hope it gets better as more is revealed):

I only overlaid matching picture tiles to get this.

Nice overlay Waladil.

I can see a chicken style foot / leg. But since we don't expect clans it could be the locust or even Catapult. Also you can make out the distant walking atlas that has been in all the reveals. So yea, I think new mech.

And don't forget E3 is starting up.

This is the what I've got so far. I did have to resize a bit and it's not pixel perfect.


I should point out that not all tiles match up, though a majority of them do like this. For example, the far right row of image 2 and 3 don't match (which is hard to tell overlayed like this).

Additionally, there's a separate image partial overlapping all the tiles for each picture. The overlapping picture is the same in the first and third image, and different in the second. Unfortunately, this is also hard to tell as a static image, but is noticeable when flipping back and forth between the layers.

dont try to match the pics within the pics guys. If you look close... even the first pic has the swoosh (white line) in it. That bright whit line will either connect somehow or outline something. OR the white line itself (once all pics are put side by side) will show a emblem or something.

I'm certain the "white swoosh" is part of a larger, separate image that has been overlayed. Take a look at these tiles:

You can see they are the same, except for the white swooshes, and also some additional scrambling in #2 due to a separate overlay picture than the one used in #1 and #3.

this from the PC gamer interview:

BE: Absolutely. So any date-time references that exist within the novels, so the time the clans first meet the Outbound Light, it’s going to be there. In fact, we’ve already referenced it. It’s already referenced in our Twitter feed that’s live right now, which is simulating what the players are going to experience once the game goes live.

It has to do with the coming of the Clans I tell ya!!!!!!!

It's the only assault mech built around the Artemis missile system that's fielded by the DCM... The silhouette in there matches it perfectly but it is not in the TRO 3025 and 3050.

At least after digging around more, thats what it looks like... Naginata.If the silhouette in one of the square is a representation of the mech.

Don't go to 4chan if you don't want spoilers....NDA breakers all over that place

[Bloodycrow]

I took the time to make a gif that better illustrates what I was talking about above. I matched them up as much as possible. Because the borders on the originals are shaded inside and out, I did erase them where they overlap so it's easier to see the whole image.

Well done. I am starting to think this is the cross between a mosaic image and an original image that was fragmented and will only be visible when overlayed with all the other image screens.

[AceTimberwolf]

I don't know I feel thats not the right path. Still think its more like pieces of a puzzle but not a overlay

[Fresh Meat]

If this is a count down to a mech a bet it will be the Orion. Artemis the Greek deity was a hunting buddy of Orion, until she killed him on accident Also we just had the ON1-M appear in a news flash.

[CapnTytePantz]

Oh for the love of....it's one of two things, reasonably: 1) it is going to be the intro of the Artemis IV Fire Control System to mount on scout and medium mechs to give missile platforms greater accuracy/targeting or 2) it's an "unseen" that is being remade for launch. That's it! Done! End of story! Personally, I hope it's the Artemis IV FCS, as this would further boost role-warfare in MWO. Also, such pods were hinted at in the forums as earned upgrades for chassis mastery levels. Just sayin'!

[CapnTytePantz]

Although, I do like the Naginata theory, which would field a dual role (support/command) heavy-mech AND introduce the Artemis IV FCs at the same time! That'd be pretty sweet. Just sayin'!

[Monthar]

I signed up on the Artemis page and didn't think anything of it. Then a little bit ago I checked my e-mail and about had a heart attack when I saw I had e-mail from MWO. Then I read the subject and opened it only to find it was a newsletter. Apparently the sign-up on the Artemis page is for the newsletter.

Anyway, I'll bet the big reveal is probably a live feed from the MWO E3 booth. Thus we'll get to see folks playing the game in the background during E3. There will probably be some close-up views of the gameplay during scheduled interviews, most likely when they want to show us one or more of the mechs we haven't seen yet.

The first thing I think will be revealed in this live feed is the sending of the next batch of invites and how many.

[RogueSpear]

So the IP address belongs to Xerox? The guys who do photocopiers?
And this went up on Wednesday instead of a mech?
Could this be the Unseen release?
If it is, I'm calling it...well Tuesday when I saw it, but now I have proof to go on...

[Serevn]

Unseen... thats what I'm thinking... what else could have been REDACTED and is big enough to go through all of this mystery.

[Redbrew]

Lots of errors? Must be a future version of Windows!
