As long as there isn't kinda of a metagame where you can climb up mechs and hit weak spots just like in the novels, battlearmors will be totally useless. Even the lightest of all mechs will be faster, better armored and quipped with more firepower.
Since the odds for such a metagame are bad I'd say they we don't need them.

First battle armor was introduced when Clans hit, the Elemental.

Also, even though it would be 1 year after release, devs stated that they're basing the game around mech v mech combat, no BAs.

Timewise, BA's don't exist yet, and won't for a while. The first ones we'd possibly see would be Clan Elemental suits, and IS ones years after THAT. Mechassault's suit was ludicrous.

i know,mechassualts sucked.but they should make them operate things.like capturing a base,you need elemental.i hope they get put into the game somehow.they need to.it adds another level to it.always be movng.maybe an extreme scout?

Seriously, it was bad enough that the stuff exists at all in the TableTop.

BA are horrible...They are implemented in MWLL and it's just a nightmare, they are not fun at all and OP to a certain degree.
I admit though, some of those BAs look really great, and why not a spin-off game with only BAs, but not in the original game please :lol:


And while we're on it, absolutly no VTOLs !! It's just sooooo annoying and brings nothing in the game...

Well I'm done whining like a girl now, I'll go back to eating nails and punching torn up metal pieces that I set on fire.
