There was rumors of it here and there and plenty of people would like to see it in game.

The Mauler
http://www.sarna.net/wiki/Mauler
http://www.solaris7....eMech/index.asp

Some variants that could be definitely be used.

Mauler MAL-1R you get the mix of Weapons Ballistic/Missile/Energy. Production Year: 3048
http://www.solaris7....Info.asp?ID=634

Possibly the Mauler MAL-2R Earliest again a Ballistic/Missile/Energy Production Year:3051
http://www.solaris7....fo.asp?ID=17033

Then with the Mauler X1 you have Missie/Energy boat. Production Year:2750
http://www.solaris7....fo.asp?ID=11113

Finally the Mauler X2 is an Energy/Ballistic battlemech. Production Year:2750
http://www.solaris7....fo.asp?ID=11115

Mauler MAL-1X: Three of these mecha participated in the Ronin-purge of 3034
http://www.solaris7....nfo.asp?ID=2569

Then you could always go Daboku. Technically the same mech.
Daboku DCMS-MX90-D http://www.solaris7....fo.asp?ID=13387
Daboku DCMS-MX90-E http://www.solaris7....fo.asp?ID=13418
Daboku DCMS-MX90-Z http://www.solaris7....fo.asp?ID=16495

I don't recall ever seeing anything official saying the Mauler was coming. I seem to recall it being mentioned in an NGNG podcast but in relation to Mechcommander modding not MWO. Rumours are pointless unless someone can come up with a real quote or clip.

Maybe PGI came to their senses and decided the Mauler is not worthy of their time and resources.

More likely, it's the next mech in the queue (so they don't need to include it in any polls or whatnot) and PGI is working on figuring out what other mechs to release in the beginning of the new year.

I'm sure we'll get it at some point, simple because it is popular, but there exist only 3 variants as of 3050 and one of those isn't really official. So PGI needs to be creative to give us any variety between these variants... They'll probably wait for the 3051 and C3 Targeting Comp. implementation.

MAL-1R: 2xER LL, 4xAC2, 2xLRM15
DCMS-MX90-D: 2xLL, 4xAC2, 2xLRM10 (Dabuko)
MAL/LMN-1PT5: 2xML, 4AC2, 2xLRM15 (Linesman)

MAL-C: 2xER LL, 4xAC2, 2xLRM15, C3 Comp (3051)

One of the most iconic mechs in the game. We must have it.

PGI needs to just start being okay with creating their own variants even if they are just copy pastes of existing ones with same hardpoints they just changed weapon loadouts.

It will probably be coming out in a new Clan Buster IS Assault mech pack along with the Annihilator.

I would gladly see how the C3 is implemented in MWO....because the target sharing is already in.
(maybe they made it like the targeting computer -with increased damage, range and crit chances)

Annihilator almost scares me more then the King Crab, I have put 4 AC20s on one in MW4 lol....Its pretty dangerous....but 4 IS AC10s is just as bad....still 40 dmg, but now at a faster rate and longer range.

Oh, and Mauler, I want it.

I'm guessing the enemy pilot knew how to drive it well.

You had to necro to bring that up?????
MX90 can pack 6 AC2'S comfortably with plenty of ammo. I've done well over a 1000 in my Mauler multiple times
