Oh I know that feeling well, I'll be buying it too.

Seeing as it weighs 90 tons and going on the pricing from other heroes this one should cost 6750MC (formula is 75MC * weight in tons) sooo roughly $32~ish

[Terror Teddy]

Oh god....

Team Cacophony

EVERYONE has the Speaker highlander and EVERYONE uses a different soundtrack...

[Sephlock]

Ideally an entire clan would use them and all have "Ride of the Valkyries" blaring over their speakers, all synced up.

If this thing actually starts blasting out music it automatically becomes a priority target.

alternatively it could blast out the "brown noise" causing all mech pilots to **** their pants causing upto and over 1 minute of mech paralysis as the pilot disposes of his ****** pants

[Mounty]

I'm thinking Duelling Banjo's when we go up against the Clans!

[KinLuu]

If I can blast my own music... I MUST HAVE IT.

np: Amon Amarth - Death in Fire

Please PGI, make it happen.

[Nightfangs]

Interesting Hero-Mech! Any ideas about its loadout/hardpoints?

If the highlander is able to play ingame music that can't be muted, I'm out until PGI fix it.
They won't be that stupid... I hope.

maybe



Smart money is on:
4 Energy
2 Ballistic
2 Missile

Man just think, 3 ppc's in that one arm, gauss in the other and jumpjets.

Looks kind of silly that it has 6 tubes in the big launcher and 10 in the small one attached to its waist. They got it right on the atlas.

If that thing streams MP3s to other players, I'm quitting. -.-;

The left arm has a hand, which means a full actuator set (Shoulder, Upper Arm, Lower Arm, Hand), leaving only 8 criticals open.
Barring Clan Tech: triple large lasers (LL, ERLL, LPL) in the arm are possible, but not triple PPC/ER-PPC (which would require at least 9 criticals).

The issue with allowing users to upload sound files (assuming the stereos do anything at all beyond aesthetics) would be that there would be a substantial number of dolts who would create and/or upload match-length recordings of swearing and national/racial/sexual slurs that would make "swearing like a sailor" look like a raindrop in a hurricane.
IMO, it would be smarter and safer for PGI to allow sounds played only from a server-side list of PGI/IGP-approved material...

Good point, i forgot about the hand.

On the upside that just means Gauss and x2 erppc's followed up by some missiles with jumpjets.

Good show.

[Calem]

It could play a small jingle (random out of a given collection) every time the mech scores a kill. La cucaracha horns etc. Would strike a good balance between funny and overly obnoxious

[Sephlock]

That should draw all of the commandos out of the woodwork, now all I need is a melee weapon skinned to look like a rolled up newspaper...

[Staplebeater]

It is a highlander i was thinking this

[Adridos]

I think we'll just get bagpipes.

Elvis would need royalties, custom sound would be abused and with in-game soundtrack coming + five songs plaing at once, many people would get sick of it really fast.
