I like the redesign, but disappointed that all we got was another big slow moving assault out there.

Finally, a mech i've always liked. Looks like it's ready to Rock and Roll.

Wooot.
I love this mech.
How it looks practical and functional, how it has a heavy weapons load all in one easy to aim torso.

I loved in in MW4 as well. Damn, I need a heavy Rocketlauncher now.
Though a Cyclops would also be nice, we lack a heavy Commander.^^

Edit: It does look a little fat though, the MW4 version had sharper edges, made it somewhat look more dangerous.

The Stalker looks very impressive! The "head"/cockpit reminds me a bit to the Boeing 747 :P
but i would be happier with a Mauler ;)

Wooo o_O.
It's very nice ! From the über-crappy original "artwork", they made this magnificent piece of death machine, I'm very impressed.
This will probably be my assault mech for the game, unles they release one even better of course. Though I'll probably change the weapons a bit because I'm not a huge fan of what it's carrying for now...

Nice devs, for this you get : A+ :P

Man, Oh, man. Last I saw this beauty was in Mechwarrior 2 series. Now oncemore, unto nightmarish dreams it stalks back into the realm of terror to rain death from afar and unto the unaware who know not what it can do. I just hope to Heaven that it doesn't over heat as much.

Beautiful 'mech. I love the weapon arrangement, covering all ranges of engagement well. I'll definitely be looking forward to piloting this when the game comes out!

FD, this is your best rebuild of any 'Mech, yet. Every time I've seen a Stalker, even the beautiful MekTek Stalker, I have always just seen a clumsy oafish phallic symbol, but the way you've rebuilt this, I see a combat machine. Well-done.

I still wouldn't drive this amazing heat pig, but it is a beautiful machine, now, for certain.

I always liked the Stalker in its Standard Variation because it has enormous firepower, can support on any distance, but is slow and not too heavyly armored, which gives it character and makes it a balanced Mech.

The model here looks really good! A Job well done !

Although i never will understand, how high one must be, to get the crazy idea to call such a monster "Stalker" - I mean seriously?? That's like naming a Locust something like "Behemoth" ^^

As predicted. Not much of IS assaults have bird legs and this is the one very familiar to every CBT fan.
Looks like read badass. I like it.
