Ist a go...but not how well he realy did.

[Ovion]

Oh, I get you.
No, we never got an exact percentage or anything, or anything since - you could go ask Russ on Twitter though, that'll be about the only way you could get it.

[Kinski Orlawisch]

I just read Twitter..I will never go to such Systems.

[jper4]

maybe he'll give us a total after it's done. i'll go with 125% of what they were looking for based on the trend of updates we had been getting before the official go was given.

BRETHREN RECHOICE!
Darkness engulfs well stomped Atlas..ass...(well you know the plural),
Trashcan shines,
A bright new Day.
Honestly, i'm thinking about reinstalling the game. What have you got on CW now, 2 maps?
Bad enough to give it a try i guess.
P.S.: LOL at new post editor mechanics...

Your suggestion?

First off, sorry about mixing the names of the Phoenix and Shadow Hawk up. Never type with a migrane. I have no problems with doing 'Reseen' versions of the Harmony Gold/Macross mech...because there is no other way we are going to get them. FASA stole those looks and they shouldn't be allowed to use them again. Period. Make new looks and move on..

Second, I'll make my suggestions by class

-Light: The Hammer. Yes it is a bit after 3050 (3053 to be exact), but I like the mech as a support option for typical light lances. Faster then the Urbie and tougher than the usual speed mech, it specializes in LRM support and some medium range back-up. These guys can keep up with a group of lights and give them the firepower support to survive contact while using those quick locks. Runner up would be the Hussar.

-Medium: The Dervish. This was my first mech back in my Mechwarrior RPG days and still an old favorite of mine. It's basically a tough LRM boat with jump jets and some close-in fighting ability. Considered to be cheap, easy to maintain and repair, and tough as hell, I see this as an excellent entry mech for a lot of new players because it can fill in many roles, and be able to got out of most trouble, Runner up would be the Sentinel.

-Heavy: The Black Knight. No question here. Just the potential looks alone would sell this beast. It's a popular mech, and most versions of it are energy based, ammo free types so you don't have to worry about extra space for missiles and bullets. This is a mech made for lining out with the enemy and burning them into cinders. Range matters not. Runner up would be the Marauder.

-Assault: The Cyclops. The Cyclops is a little know mech, but quite useful. Its weapons can handle a lot of situations, it has a unique look to it, and considering the fluff I could picture it having quirks that would enhance modules for once. A person could take this mech into any random match and expect to do well with it. Runner up would be the Crockett.

[Dawnstealer]

I could get on board with the Assassin and Cyclops.

Better idea: Let us also buy these packs with MC?

[HlynkaCG]

Whe the Urbie actually arrive this thread should be renamed to "URBANMECH ARRIVES ON THE BATTLEFIELD (Better late than never)" and placed in a position of prominence next to the Underrated Locust thread.

[Túatha Dé Danann]

I really hope the max Engine is about 210 and not 180 - I will need the Slots for stuff and not DHS.

Also: Gimme a 5-6 Energy variant of that thing. Then I might consider buying the troll-camo for MC.

[Wabbit Swaya]

Will...patiently wait for 3062 and my damn Uziel.

Also hoping one of the Urbie warhorns is the classic Tweeky line from 80's classic Buck Rogers in the 25th Century...
BeeDeeBeeDeeBeeDeeBeeDeep whoaaah Buck!!!
or...
La Cucaracha... for that authentic urban sound

[Tarogato]

Looks like PGI already pretty much finished modeling dear Urbie!

[Nik Reaper]

Hm, I was hoping for a more squat model ,I hope they still haven't made the bone animations and could just verticaly scale the model a bit shorter.

For me, it's more about the size. I'm fine with it looking like that if it's the height of the Commando or shorter.

No taller than a commando. I will flip a lid if it is taller than a commando.
