Well, I really like Thud

I like my Thud as well (with a STD thing is one of the TOUGHEST mechs in the game)

But it is hardly as powerful as people expected it to be is it?

Don't forget the Dire Wolf C, it also has ECM.

I noticed that among most of the clan mechs we're getting, there are no ECM variants officially listed. We'll probably get pods with the feature, but even those are few among the current chassis.

DireWolf with ECM & Jump jets? I can hear the symphony of whines already.

Hum...

Probably a stupid question but:

Do you intend to create your "own" favorite configuration for your favorite mech and give it a name?

Personatly yes.

A Timber Wolf I will call "Little O"
A Dire Wolf I will care "Big O"

Configuration? Waiting the implementation but it's try to get something allowing me to attack at all distance.

History behind the names.
In the Greek alphabet, there is 2 "O"
"O" = Omicron A.K.A. Little O
"Ω" = Omega A.K.A. Big O

Basicly for the last one.
"I'm the Alpha and The Omega" or "I'm the Omega mech who's gonna kick your @ss!"

First thing I thought of when you decided to name a giant mech "Big O".


But your reasoning is probably better.

But your reasoning is probably better. (you should watch the abridged series, there's hilarious scene. Including the one at the origin of both name. And the explication of the name "Big O"! XD )

Actually, it's also in part because of that one!

That was my first thought, as well... and then "Stand A Chance" from the Big O OST got stuck in my head (not that I mind that at all ).

Thanks on the information on the clan variants...

What I don't understand is this:

Mad Cat/Timber Wolf, Black Hawk/Nova, Uller/Kit Fox -- all have S variants

But the Daishi doesn't. What gives?

Becasue there`s nothing OP at all about a 100 ton mech with jjs and 3-4 10 or 20 class cUACs... I guess we could add an ECM hardpoint and 4 base module slots while we're at it

Call me old-fashioned.

[ToxinTractor]

So excited for these

Not sure what to think of some of the variants though >.<

Aaaaand now it's in my head. I haven't even watched that many episodes of it..... Yet. Mainly because the ending is one of the first episodes I watched. Dem spoilers. I won't talk about the show here anymore.


I should probably start naming my mechs something different. I just have a habbit of leaving the names default when I get a mech.



@topic
At least we get to see them in game and such in 1 more week. I look forward to seeing everyone's reactions then.
