Any guesses what it'll look like?

^^

Like a fractal?

Ohhhh, you said fractal. Thought you said Fraggle.

I wish they would implement old school miniature paint schemes already. Having limited 'modern' type camo options, and nothing classic, feels like Metal Gear Solid Modern Warfare 9.

By the name of Kerensky, I compel you to give me somewhat serious, speculative answers!



Not derpage!

Seriously dude? That's like describing what chicken tastes like.

No! It's like speculating on what the Soup of the Day will taste like tomorrow or something like that. ^^

I am confused, I posted a picture of a fractal pattern. Fractal camo will most probably be... a fractal pattern?

[Soy]

It's just a simple honest question that I was hoping would pose more insightful answers than pictures of muppets or semantics right off the bat... what is there to be confused about besides the question I asked?

I'm not a doctor, just a simple caveman lawyer, who is aware of what a fractal is and what camouflage is. However, I'm not very familiar with 'fractal camo' and thusly I'm just curious what peoples thoughts on what it could look like in game come Tuesday on mechs.

Tye-dye commando is boss btw!

I'm surprised you didn't expect this.

You want me to speculate on a self-similar, mathematical construct, that is infinitely similar so as to be impossible to determine what level of magnification you're viewing it at?

Ok, because you quoted Caveman Lawyer, I'll sleep on it and try to give you a legit answer tomorrow

On a related note, I expect to see the most outlandishly hideous mechs this side of the Inner Sphere. If I don't, I will be horribly disappointed.

Yes?

It's not difficult to speculate on aesthetics of things if you're familar with the patterns and forms that will be used...

Also, it's kind of ironic that you'd bring up the impracticality of discussing the infinite nature of it when the implementation of it within this particular game has to of course shave off some for the sake of practicality.

I'm guessing chicken, or tasting similar to chicken at the least.
