Tried to match the Cockpit to the in game image from Clan pack page... Maybe Dire wolf? Nothing really matched up.

[CyclonerM]

It is probably a Nova, it is the closest match.

Whoops.

Watched it again and lol wrong pic.

I think it is a Timberwolf cockpit. Sure.

...that is a Griffin's cockpit in the above photo, though. :\ We saw no arms in the photo, and there are so many Clan mechs with those gorgeous oh so fantastic fighter style cockpits. Damn. Do want. I second the Adder suggestion, as you can see some sort of overhand on the top left corner of the glass. The Timber Wolf and Nova have no such thing. Could still be a Summoner as you would not see the pod in a direct forward view, and it seemed to have sensors on the head in the external model that could account for window coverage. Still leaning towards Adder, though.

Adder. It's moving quick and is low to the ground.

Thought I saw it use Jump Jets. So it COULD be a Summoner, or a Timber Wolf S. Wish I could see what it was packing.

Edit: Scratch all that, it is an Adder.

Never mind, it is the Timber Wolf.



...I think.

Yeah. I really am not interested in MWO atm due to this. I want my Clan chassis... enough surat trash

I only have 2 hero mechs for this reason, never caved and bought any of the 50% off ones.

Like I said. The clan mechs have those wonderful cockpits full of glass. I absolutely love it. Makes identifying the suckers from the inside difficult, though. :\

I felt that very same way when the Timber Wolf A La Carte came out.

I gave up and bought the Timber Wolf. I needed muh Mad Cat right now.

The only glass that realy fits is the timberwolf cockpit.

[Pariah Devalis]

I disagree. Lower side window panes are wrong, and those red boxes do nothing to address the shape mismatch. Those lower side windows would need to be a lot smaller. Upper window is "clipped" at the top in the timber wolf, yes, but not that close to the front of the glass, either.

But you have to admit that the central panel is too different from that of the Summoner's cockpit to be the its cockpit..

And i find stunning how similar the cockpit in the screenshot is to at least Timberwolf cockpit i saw in a MW2 intro remake , not to mention MWLL's Timberwolf

Mmmhm. But it could still be the Adder. Remember, we have a TON of mechs with full glass cockpits, now. In fact, the more I look at it, the more I am sure it is the Adder.

It might be but honestly i am still sure that it is a Timberwolf.

BTW, now that i have seen quite more shots, i have to say the torso is not as short as it seemed in the first screenshots.. And, aside from the MW4ish legs that i have never liked, overall i like the MWO Timberwolf!

Yes quite a change, i admit. But now i like it so much that i bought one

[Pariah Devalis]

It was much noise about nothing, IMO, when the TW came out. Still think it looks incredible, and still think it looks better than any previous incarnation of the mech. Yes, some things were altered, yes my nostalgia would like certain things different, but basing the design on its own merits it is a beautiful mech that happens to check off almost every single thing the TImber Wolf has, aesthetically.

The slightly cute, slightly menacing 75 ton mech with the unique profile. Matches up fine.


Cannot wait to repaint it in Snowfall, black, manganese, and white.

Well there are still others incarnations that i would say are as good as it, if not better. And i will never understand the legs.. But i still love it

Honestly i think i will use all the three configurations i will get... And only one or two at best with JJs, because i want the old feeling (and the tons!)

Anyone else not get the Strana Mechty banner? When was it going to be injected again?

So are they not injected togheter with the 'Mechs?

[Jaroth Corbett]

I thought everything was getting injected on June 17th.

Edited by Jaroth Corbett, 02 June 2014 - 07:42 AM.

[Pariah Devalis]

So far the monthly rewards were injected separately. For example, I have the hanging cameron star and the holoKerensky. However, I do not have the Mechty banner. :\
