[Foxwalker]

I think a Viper (Dragonfly) might be fun too.

You're both crazy.

The Ice Ferret is one of the best mechs in Battletech.

[Sylvian Le Fabre]

I dont want new mechs before 2015.

Just do maps, balancing and fixes.

[Biglead]

Not one day before the UrbanMech.

[MeiSooHaityu]

Cougar FTW!

Well since the Cougar is a bit off timeline wise, I will settle for a Bushwacker

Urban mech before anything else.

My ultra ac10 adder brawling direwolves and atlas and winning makes them viable

I think people forget that Urbanmech mania is a joke. Nobody would actually use it, because it's a fundamentally crippled mech.

....I would use it from time to time.

It would give my Cute Fox some company.

I kind of think this too...HOWEVER

It kind of depends on the mech's size. It might be slow, but if it is a real tiny mech with an A/C10, it might not be the worst thing in the world. Try hitting a target the height of a Locust's leg or shorter. It might litterally be an oversized Elemental. That might make it an interesting choice to pilot.

You are crazier than I am. I'd probably buy it for lulz. It would never see anything other than the training grounds though.

[El Bandito]

Arctic Cheetah/Hankyu master race.

No comparison.

[FupDup]

Arctic Cheetah, because it has waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay better stats than any other Clan fast light Omnimech (or medium) in the current timeline...and perhaps in the entirety of Battletech.

The Urbanmech is currently not possible to make in MWO, because engine sizes only go down to 100 (the Urbanmech has a STD 60). Even if they added it, it wouldn't have a canon engine.

Also, due to rather poor game rules, the STD 60 engine would only have 2 heat sinks built into it - meaning that your 0.5 ton (or 0 ton?) STD 60 engine requires 8 external heat sinks just to be able to walk. In contrast, a STD 100 engine weighs 1.0 ton and has 4 built-in heat sinks, meaning that the STD 60 engine takes 8.5 tons (or 8.0 tons?), and the STD 100 engine takes 7 tons in minimum. The only way that it would work properly would be if the STD 60 engine required negative tonnage, which seems kinda ridiculous.

My allegedly infallible yet sadly non-existent spies have suggested that PGI will release a Clan Second Wave pack, including the Koshi, the Fenris, the Vulture, and the Man 'O War.

Nah, it's fine. Ignore math and stuff. We need the Urbanmech
