And surely you know about when this game is set...you know...before the clan arrival. So in short, there will be no clan mechs or IS mechs that were built using clan tech development.


...derp, of coarse i did ;) (didnt see that earlier...)

Orion, Panther, Jagermech, Cyclops, Zeus, Dervish, Assassin

any of those would be cool, assuming they're avoiding the Unseen designs still.

I hope newer Mechs are not Medium, as we already have 4 of those(3 of those all being at 50 tons) but only 3 Mechs each on the other 3 classes. I'd like the game to release with at least 4 of every class. This means they would need to an a Light, a Heavy, and an Assault. Then we would have 4 of each and a lot of choices. I don't know about the lore or timeline that much. I know Clan Mechs are off limits. So what about Flea or Osiris for Light? Argus or Thanatos for Heavy? Mauler or Sunder for Assault?

In the dev update they said they want about 10 unique mechs at launch and about 40 mech variants.
Actually it was said that there would be 10 mech and about 40 variants for those 10 mech at launch of open beta I believe... Not launch day (whenever that is).

I don't know how you got that number considering that right now there are already 13 confirmed Mechs in the game.(3 Light, 4 Medium, 3 Heavy, 3 Assault) We'll see more by release, not less, therefore never getting down to your number.

And we probably won't see a new mech till next wendsday as we just got a new mechast wendsday. It seems to be every other wendsday.

Yes 13 confirmed but the DEVS said the first 10 will be playable by open beta.

Seems to me an Urbie would play similar to a Hunchback. Just slower and with less armor.

Many possible Mechs left ...

Personally I there will be : Zeus, Victor, Highlander, Black Knight, Clint, Panther.

What do you think about the Hatchetman ?
Do you think close-combat weapons will be included at same time in the future ?

Thor or Shadowcat.

Madcat would be awesome too.... Madcat_Primary from Mechwarrior 3 was fun.


Keep dreaming... the clan mechs won't be in the game for several years if they keep to their projected timeline.

the game may release with 11 to 16 mechs , but it has been confirmed that they will be more than happy to have 10 with thier variants when Founders access starts.

You are probably right. Every two weeks seems to be the pattern as of late. But i do hope you are wrong!

I guess you can find "troller" in whatever game you play.

Good Hunting,

ppl need to get over the unseen 'mechs already. Until the devs report that there will be no legal ramifications with releasing them, you will not see them. Dream all you want, it ain't going to happen until that issue is resolved. Focus on the 'mechs that could realistically show up.

****Yes I know several of my choices are unseen but they are the Mechs I would like to see. Only the Devs know what or how many will be released. So this is just an exercise in wishing****

Light Mech - Locust (Yes its unseen but the light I would like to use the most, I will use a Raven or Jenner for light roles)

Med Mech - Doubt another medium will come out before one of each other weight class.

Heavy Mech - Rifleman or Grasshopper

Assault Mech - Zeus or Highlander

*cracks open the 3025TRO and randomly flips to a page*

*skips the Unseen Crusadier and Archer, skips the Awesome as it is already done and ended up on the Victor*

Almost as good as a dartboard.

Till the Devs actually come out and say 'We are not doing the Unseen" you better keep a lid on it and not pretend to speak for PGI.
