When we put it into MW4, it was an extremely popular (though not necessarily effective) mech. PGI should give it more attention, they actually would sell quite a few I think.

I'd just like to point out that there is a very real part of this community that would actually be really upset if PGI DID waste time and resources to put a mech in the game that will certainly be a DOA deathtrap just because some people think it would look cool.

Do people see the irony in complaining about the new Raven hero because its not a mech that has 1/4 the engine, way less hardpoints, and a wider, easier to hit profile?

(Cue forum rage)

*hides*

Bull, I run a dual ac20 cicada with just as much armor, and I do fine in that!

I guarantee if I get an urbanmech, I'll get a positive KDR with it.

[HammerMaster]

Jokes on us. No Urbanmech for real. Happy Birthday(APRIL FOOL!) here is your crap Raven Hero instead. JOKES ON THEM. PEOPLE WOULD HAVE BOUGHT THIS!

i kicked butt in it throw on a linked cap ppc and mess stuff up lol

[Euphoric1RW]

Maybe it is not a joke!

[Hexenhammer]

Lol the urban mech is real and the 12 hours of downtime is the real joke


But it doesn't matter. Everyone hates PGI.

I want to see the urbanmech in the game because it would be a true underdog and. AND take the obsurbity level to 11

There is only way I know to make a dual AC20 Cicada..... might as well buy an Urbie then if you can run that machine.

I really do want one....

Not to mention jumpjets launched you in the air pretty far in MW4, making the UrbanMech very maneuverable in that game.

[Krinkov]

I think they are missing an opportunity with the urbie. They could release it as a stand alone hero and no one would scream pay-to-win. Everyone is happy, we get our urbie and PGI is guarantied to make a buck off it.

[General Taskeen]

Did one of the devs think this would be a good joke? It seems funny, but nah. You guys could have made bank on actually adding it to the game...


Here are proper April Fools jokes:







Anyways peace, whatevs.

[KuroNyra]

Damn it, at least wargamming and gaijin actually maed there april's fool REAL.
You really can fight that giant snarl in war thunder.
And play that 8-bit level on WoT.


Why not really a UrbanMech? That mech is has iconing has the Timberwolf, the Catapult, or the Warhammer!

[Trystan Thorne]

Haha, nice one PGI!

Well all I can say is this:

Vixen... hence the naming of the package as the Dodo Package... an extinct flightless bird...

If any part of my post was taken as anything other than sarcasm....

Doh.

[Mofwangana Bogogono]

I know this is a joke. But, really. I want one.

[Raggedyman]

12 v 12 urbanmech battles?
YES PLEASE

[Lord Letto]

Gimmee Da Urbie!

[cSand]

I would love a Urbie! For the 30 seconds it took for it to get blasted to nothing

So... gold-plated Mechs ARE a joke? Yet you still want $500 for the gold Clan Mechs? Something is funny here, and it's not the Urbanmech...

Yea it's how much of a d-bag you are
