Hahaha to the posts above me..

But on a side note, i do want to experiment with a few jagermech concepts i have in my head.. It seems like a great support mech that can deal consistent dps to a target so long as you can aim!

And I REALLY hope I can do some funky stuff with AC10s or LBX 10s to! :(

Just need to see how i can fix that armour issue the mech seems to come stock with.. >.>

Is this what you're thinking of? Someone posted it on the forums way back when the mech was announced.

Once we get state rewind for ballistics and missiles, I'll be all over this like a rash.


When I purchase one, I hope there are at least a few Puerto Rican girls just dyyyyyyin' to meet me.

Also, I wonder if the Mech Jagger can shut down or overheat. Afterall, once you start it up, start it up, start it up, I heard it never stops.

Oh man, my own post ashames me so. I thought I heard an angel cry.

Shame that nobody will pilot the Jager because of uninstalling thanks to consumables...


Except pretty much everyone is cool with the revised not-pay2win version of consumables, such that VERY few people are quitting over it.

.... eject the UrbanMech and while people see the Jagermech wreck and are laughing at the MGs, shoot them from behind with the AC/10?

Ram with Jagermech then eject Urbie for aerial AC/10 shot into DFA.

That's why they couldn't say anything, when we destroy the first Jagermech an Urbie is gonna pop out and run away.


"Urbie."

"Run."

One of these things is not like the other. One of these things does not belong.

I am very much hoping we get this as a developer made variant, a sort of sister mech to the Catapult-A1.
BEHOLD! WE GIVE YOU THE JAGERMECH-A2 !


It will be Glorious.

Actually, 6x AC/2's (36 tons...) on a 65 ton mech will be hilariously awful, but by jove, I'll still do it for the dakka.

I do it all for the dakka.

Hey, an Urbie could run.

It runs slower than an Atlas walks, but it could run.

"Run, Urbie, Run!"

No.

Atlas makes Hail Urbie pass, Urbie fires AC/10 into cockpit during DFA.

How fast is the jager supposed to be?

I think I might have finally caught a glimpse of a mech that would make me at least side trip from the dragons for awhile.

In that pic it kinda looks like an Urbanmech that got into one of those powersuits from the Aliens movies.


Can someone with skills please paint R2D2 into the Jagermech...? R2's badazz combat suit - online

omfg - I wrote the R2D2 reply before seeing this. My secretary is now wondering what the hell I'm doing in my office, to produce such grunts of laughter. Well done, sir!

Stock? 4/6 (64kph top speed.)

So 70~90kph in MWO after max engine and Speedtweak.

I don't see that happening, ever. Why? For the simple reason that changing the weight and critslots of the various components would mean PGI would have to redesign every stock mech they put into the game, and many stocks would probably no longer be possible depending on which way the change went. Changing heat, damage, range and so forth has a far lesser impact on the established mechs in the lore than changing crits and weights.

And yes, I know there are people whose response to the above will be "who cares about stock mechs? They suck and only stupid people use them", but no matter how you feel about stock designs and customization there has to be _some_ point where you say "if we cross this line then why are we paying for an established IP instead of creating a setting of our own?" Changes which make canon mechs impossible to recreate in MWO is, in my opinion, one of those line.


A simple way i like to view it is that as elite merc/house pilots we're basically "Heroes" so we have our mechs that are basically our own personallized "Hero" mech.

Jager looks sweet. Five days until dakka.

I predict the Jagermech will either be really awesome or really bad, or just ok.
