well generally speaking we have some kind of hints or info about whats going to come in a specific month.. UI 2.0, launch module, mech variants etc. most of this information comes from NGN, twitter, dev videos or similar sources.

so my question is, do we know whats planned for May?? i know they are going to fix the 3/3/3/3 concept and bring it out on 6th (or is it on 13th? but what else??

May should be extremely important for the Devs to put out some real meta stuff as clans are coming next month and they need the game ready for it.so whats coming in May?

Probably mech variants of a sort, as "April and May are going to be different to normal months", implying that they will be similar to each other. Smart money is on hero variants for the Blackjack, Quickdraw and possible others.

Other than that we know nothing but will probably be sparse because there's "big things coming in 90 days June"

Mainly fixes. Nothing special planned.
Hero on the 6th is according to rumors a Quickdraw.
Standard mechs on the 20th might be variants of the Griffin and Wolverine.

so basically its a slow patch month...slow i say as it wont bring anything big in it like that UI 2.0, launch module kind of stuff...

for me it will be quite disappointing. but as long as they do some serious fixing to the game before the clans arrive i will be happy, if not then meh...as the game will be more broken next month when clan arrive (clans will need balancing which will be on top of the fixing the current stuff)

Hero mechs for those few that don't have any hero mechs.

Maybe they'll have new "dynamic weapon" 3D models for older mechs that still don't have that feature, like the Centurion and Awesomes?

Things to expect

3/3/3/3 "hotfixed" and working in a crude state
A vastly superior Quickdraw for about ~$20 (I rather just buy a game on steam tbh)
Variants for the Griffin and Wolverine (woo baby...)
News about how CW is being made and Clans and Sunshine and Icecream and Lolipops and gumdrops galore!

(Only if you drink the Koolaide though)

I'd love to see a new map. For example, something like the underground factory of MW3, with overpasses, caverns, buildings, alleys, central lake... ooh, working elevators to get to higher ground... fighting in a very large mine that is more 3D in its layout...... (Not Descent 3D, but more 3D that other maps. Similar to Crimson but with more portions of the map layered)

I'd love a new map. Something big like Alpine but not hot like Mordor. Like rolling hills and forests, with a bridge choke in the middle maybe?

Or an actual urban environment, broader than River City.

Anticipated last week, but I guess we gotta try again?

Do we have specs?

Does the Griffin have a ballistic variant listed on sarna?

I've kinda written off the Wolverine for a bit now...

Some of these listed are very fine examples of what's to come, we're also pretty excited to test out a special demo event this month. More details on that to come soon!

By demo event, do you mean the public test server?

This sounds like a Clan Mech PTS event.
