They are most likely saving up the Crab for something special. Vindicator was mentioned but not confirmed. The Dervish is still up in the running as a no info black horse candidate.

I personally would like to see it in action once they fix srms with its duel 2 slot srm launchers arms.

OS launchers were the dumbest idea in Battletech

I'm sorry, but this game is overdue for a case of crabs.

A 0 damage weapon with a 5% chance of causing systems crash (power down) or loss of power to whatever component is hit! I'll take 3 with artemis.

As much as I love medium mechs, please no more missile/energy 55 tonners. I think we have plenty of those.

Not necessarily... just HORRIBLY planned.

Rocket Launchers are an example of OS launchers done well. AN RL 10 is essentially a one shot MRM-10 with better range profiles, doesn't explode from overheating... and weighs a half ton.

I feel like we'd be due to see either a Vindicator on an Enforcer. I'd be glad to see either.

A Hermes II would be a huge curve-ball. A Clint would be... interesting.

I would say no to the Dervish. We need more of the small, fast mediums. We already have a bunch of 50-55 ton mediums.

For me I want the Assassin, but a Clint would work I suppose. I just want something to compete with the Cicada, which I don't like the looks of.

I'd love to see the Dervish in MWO.

But full disclosure, I'd love to see ever TT 'Mech in MWO, no matter how much DOA or duplication in loadouts they cause.

I don't mind Dervish, but my bets are on the Vindicator and my wish is on the Zeus. Don't mind a Mauler either.

The only medium I've heard anything about has only been the Vindicator.

Still holding a lit cigarette lighter up in the air for the Assassin, though.

what if your mech warrior is installed with Linux?, your OS launcher will not stand a chance.

Do we even get a mech this month?

I mean we had three patches in april and there was nearly no new content beside some warmed up pheonix versions...
What will we get, a Hero for the quicklegged and blowjack?
