Just go buy the K-9. It's only ten bucks. Run around, spin your torso 360 degrees, shoot at things, press L, then you'll understand.

Seriously, best 10 bucks I ever spent... 5 ML and a lightbar w/ sirens, STD180 for the "SUPRISE, I'M NOT DEAD!" moments...

I even wwon a game with my urbie when my game had bugged and I could not turn only walk back and forth.
When the last two enemies came to kill me since I was stuck in the spawn area, I killed them with my 360 degree torso twist :)

Because the K9 was the best 10 bucks I've spent on this game. Fun to play, surprisingly durable for a light, and THE SIRENS!!!!

Plus, you can make an Urbie look like an angry billionaire real estate developer for major trolls. This is my favorite camo.

Or you can paint it brown and put eyes in random places to be the Urbie Potato. Or bright colors and be the insane Skittle.

The paint job possibilities are amazing. Watch some of Larsh's Urbie videos and you will see people having fun with them.

Waiting for Urbie R68, and then i'll have full team of turtles Posted Image
Though loyalty pattern could be unfriendly for this purpose, and Mountain line camo is not straight enough. But we'll see.

Clan players are waiting for the Urbanmech IIC so we can have Factional Warfare as nature intended.

The U2C Hero will have flaming decals on the legs and be tricked out like a 1970's muscle car so K9 can chase it around the battlefield.

This thread makes me smile. Another point towards relaxing play is low target priority. Unless other Urbie fans are on the other team, and ESP! when those folks are actually IN their Urbie, 'cause who doesn't enjoy Urbie duels/chases?

and now it's 187 pages Posted Image

Some of my favorite duels are Urbie vs. Urbie. If you win, you are like "OH YEAH! That was fun!", if you lose it is like "OH YEAH! That was fun!"

Fun fact: by 3060 urbie duels had replaces hobo duels as the #1 form of entertainment in the IS....


Except for in Liao space, they needed the sport to manage their hobo population...

Guess which Mech I got the Creeping Death achievement in yesterday?

Same I got the Phoenix Down one in, a few weeks ago.

UM R60 - 2ERML and 4 MGs (I ran it with HMGs for a while too, up close and personal hilarity, but the extra range is noice).

EDIT: And I'm suddenly listed Tier 4.

Urbie Best Assault. :D

Hey, just because we have a highly mobile, low socioeconomic, indigent population of... okay fine, all my Urbanmechs have bench seats and luggage racks.

Dooo iiiiiit.

It's an excellent change of pace imo. You'll be overlooked on a regular basis, leaving you to fight on and on. Still enough firepower and speed to be able to put in some hurt. No reason to go try-hard, you're in an Urbie. Duh. Outpositioned and swamped? Urbie takes a while to die, so your team still benefits. Urbie jokes from the Reds and the Blues in the comments just add to the levity.
