Because the Urbie is too awesome.

It is like that unannounced and ill-timed moment of man-excitement,,, that partially annoys you, but more urges you to unbelt and let fly your Imperator.

Such is the deep passions... of an Urbie-lover.

[UrAllJerks]

I just wanted to let PGI know that I am finally emotionally ready to be an Urbanmech pilot.

[Adeptus Odren]

Whine bump. Need urbie announced soon.

PGI unfortunately.

I honestly rather that the skill tree cost 3 times as much, but was unlocked by the frame, rather than by the variant.

Which is where they'll have to go once they've exhausted the "3 variant" mechs. Really, it's a good way for them to do it: mechs with three (or more) variants were obviously popular, common models in the IS. But there are a lot of very good, very interesting mechs out there with fewer. I'd imagine they're in the works.

For the Urbie? There's enough variants to get in on the 3-mech wave.

I am betting it will be the light in the IS pack (hopefully) announced in the beginning of December.

Russ said no, it would be later than that.

Maybe we can get Urbie as a new years present? Please Russ? Pretty please? With sugar on top?

I'd rather that they come out with a package so that they can make some money and make it well worth the wait as well. Just giving it away as a "gift", does them no good and will not help us encourage the life-span of the game.

Make it a package, separate from anything else that you do.

[xeromynd]

I think the Urbanmech should be a real-money only-pack, never released for CBills.
If you think an Urbanmech for $$$ is pay-to-win, then lol @ u mate.

Pack pricing would be $30 to $40
You'd get the following:

• (3) Urbanmech Variants
  
• (3) Mechbays
  
• (1) Urbanmech Standing Cockpit Item
  
• 7 Days of Premium Time

[Heffay]

Urbanmech: Tier 0 mechs!

[Dawnstealer]

Hearing Russ talk about the Urbie on that town hall, he started out laughing about it, like it was a joke taken too far. In all seriousness, I would actually pilot one of these things, and I would have fun doing it. I would ACTUALLY PILOT ONE. Probably regularly.

But hearing Russ talk about it, he began with that comment about a joke that wouldn't die, but then, as he kept thinking on it, he started marinading on how PGI would actually make one and balance it...

And the Urbie snags another one.

Make it so, Russ: the Call of the Urbie cannot be denied.

right here PGI- this is how you can guarantee yourselves a holiday bonus this year...

[General Pete]

OK howabout this- a new mission setting, in addition to skirmish, conquest and assault: URBIE. Only 12 players in this drop, forming 1 team of mechs- and they have to face 24 ai-controlled Urbanmechs in an urban map like river city. They could even make new maps for it. How tough could it be to rig AI to handle urbanmechs? Those turrets never seem to have a problem frikking hitting me! Ooh! That's it- Make it 18 Urbanmechs and a double helping of turrets. And we need to take their base.

Everyone would play this.

The Avalanche is a medium. Those two are the designated Urbie heavy and Urbie assault varaints respectively.

Urbie, we'll never forget you!

Sorry. I meant that the Avalance was posted in response to my request for someone to find a medium urbie, since we already have a heavy and an assault (the 2 you previously pointed out)

PGI, I can haz urbie now?
