Look, I know this post probably does not belong here, and i apologise if it does not, but I feel that I have to make the recommendation that in the future, the CRB-27 Crab be in MWO, and, I admit that it is a bt out of boased reasons (being that the Crab has always been my favourite ever since first strapping into Juliet (my 'Mech's name in MW2 : Mercenaries) and kicking off on the missions.

Besides my biasness (however that word is spelled), I believe the Crab would be an excellend addistion to the game, not only for it being a Medium tonnage BattleMech, but also as fast as almost Light Class 'Mech. And although it only packs 2x mlarge lasers, 1x medium laser and 1 small laser (meaning that it is more of an energy-based 'Mech) it can be customed in a variety of ways which allow it to perform varies roles and tasks that other Battlemechs of their Class could never do.

Well, that is my recommendation and one day, I hope to strap back into the beloved Crab and bring glory to the Capellan Condeferation like I once used to in my old Crab days.

I had once a Demo for Mechwarrior 2 Mechs - funny was i had 4 mechs for this mission, Thug, Awesome, Crab and a Light - funny is i never succeed that mission with the Assaults - but had no problem with the Crab.

If the MWO Crab get only half the hitboxes of the MW2 Mech (ok MW2 had very bad hitboxes) - it could become a really good tank Mech.

You have never lived until you have pilot a Crab, they are simply divine.
I hope the Crab you tried in the trial version gave you some joy and appreciate it. :-)

Oh - i did not use the Crab in the "full game" - i went strait for the Zeus - - Hatamoto and Mauler.

But while my favorites are in game - i can feal your pain and second your suggestion

We need the Crab
