Everyone skinned as an Urbanmech for the whole day


This. Nothing screams April 1st like getting trolled by a bunch of trashcans walking in slow motion. ;)

Release the Urbanmech, unchanged from its tabletop roots.

Give the players something they want, that is absolutely terrible.

Yup. One of the quirks would be you couldn't upgrade the engine. ;)

Imagine, a 1 day sale on Urbanmechs and they will only sell them every April Fools. They's make a killing.

everybody plays as infantry against AI mechs
Training Mode has AI mechs actually try to hunt you down and kill you
5% chance to drop as a gold-colored Urbanmech with infinite ammo
15% chance where both teams dissolute abd the match becomes a "last man standing" free for all
*new map* Steiner Colosseum with 1% drop chance WITH voice over by DUNCAN FISHER (George Ledoux)

Flipping mechs over so their feet are in the air and their head drags along the ground.

The ability to walk on the "underside" of the map. As an example, people would walk "downhill" to the theta capture point on Caustic Valley.

Making the water on River Colony overheat like caustic valley.

Spawning all 16 mechs within a random 50x50 area facing random directions.

Oh, and instead of Urbanmechs, do Urbanmech-IIC

I would not be surprised if there was an annoucement of any of the following being done or released the following day:
- Community warfare
- Urbanmech
- Clan mechs/clan invasion
- New gamemode (dropship?)
- New map (desert? or something else if desert comes this month)

Replace Bitchin' Betty with Sheldon from Big Bang Theory. Have him detail why your `Mech load-out is all wrong instead of doing the power-up sequence.

THIS WOULD BE EPIC......
