You know it. Makes sense though, same alpha as 2 ac20's, better range, faster fire rate. Lets hope that they have the room for them.

Looks extremely cool. Fortunately not at all like the one on sarna.

Thank god for that!

all the King Crabs will have their ballistics in their arms. So, you will only have enough room for 1 AC-20 in each arm or 1 AC-10 in each arm. But if they have multiple ballistic hard points in each arm, you might be able to do 2X AC-5s in each arm, but that's about it.

hoping the hardpoints come close to this

4-Ballistic
4-energy
2-missile
AMS

VME-1B SLAM (unseen) striken from Sarna due copiright failure.

There is no way to get 120 tons monster, cause of Harmony gold.

If PGI only brushes the TT then that won't help much. It will pilot like a brick. A brick with insane firepower of course but non the less a brick.

It will pilot the same as a Daishi, even better if you upgrade the engine. This is MW, not TT, and even there both mechs had the same movement speed.

Quad 10s are impossible on arm hardpoints.

[Kiryuin Ragyo]

I predict...

KGC-010 and KGC-0000... will be 2xGoooss+2xLPL or ERPPC walking muffin.

Well, that won't fit. 7 crit slots per gun, likely 10 crit slots open.

[Kassatsu]

That's either REALLY wide and long, or it's going to be "normalized" to Atlas size.

PGI's normal approach is to give 2-3 hardpoints per AC/20, 1-2 per UAC/5, AC/10 or Gauss.

True, but there have been a few cases where they haven't been doing a lot of hard point inflation. I could definitely see them having a variation with loads of inflation of torso hardpoints but limit the arm in return. My point was more probably unhealthy to assume hardpoints even this close before release.

[TurkeyMcCoolRay]

Wow that is looking really good as far as model design is concerned.

[Hillslam]

I like how the dire pilots are trying to push the narrative that the king crab will outgun the direwolf.

Just stop it.

Woo! Another AC10 fan! I do hope there is a variant with 2 arm ballistics and 2 torso ballistics to run 4-AC10's or 2-AC10's/2-LBX10's

I have never been a huge fan of AC20's, and an even lesser fan of an AC40 build...

[Walluh]

Dire Wolf wins in raw DPS. King Crab wins in turbocoring at the speed of sound when in range.

[Hillslam]

nobody knows if that will be true until it hits the field. as for baseless speculation: on paper the DW still wipes the floor with it.

[Walluh]

It's an AC/40 Jaeger with more firepower and much more armor.

Common sense proves it will be true.

[Urdnot Mau]

are we only getting only 1 variant of the King Crab ?

Yes you are. no Elite till January. ha

[LordLosh]

no the way i understand it, is all 3 versions will be released 16th for MC. those who qualify get one of the versions in a prime variant with c bill boost and skin. Also look at https://mwomercs.com/resistance
you can see the faction camo's on the king crab. not sure how that will work if we are getting the camo on the gift page or the faction ones you choose? but either way still excited.
