Linebacker has only one more ton podspace than the adder.

To be fair though, the Adder also craps over STD250 and above IS 50 tonners, all clan lights and IFR/SHC (NVA when you do not count the NVA's locked in 4 DHS)

So, does the Scorpion LAM remind anyone else of the old-school Cylon Raiders?

Now the last predictable mech was announced, we can get back to topic; meaning: "What do you want to do today?" - same thing we do every day: try to guess the next mech!





Wasp?!

So, do we have reason to believe that the run of Clan 'Mechs will continue, or do we have reason to believe that PGI might switch back to IS 'Mechs for the next 'Mech?

They will go IS because it's the opposite of what I want them to do.

Probably back to IS. Keep in mind they did a pretty substantial IS run what with all the reseens, so it is all fair play. I'd like to see some IS light and mediums, next, as well as a Clan light and medium intermixed with the IS set. So one IS, one Clan, one IS, one Clan, etc.

Yet since is had a year of mechs before clans I think they still outnumber clan options by a lot still but that's none of my business in these rose colored forums.

Meh. The IS always maintains a significant variety advantage. However, 50 shades of white is still white. IS has a lot more redundancy going around in their mech selection options as vs the Clans. At least most of the recent Clan additions have been mechs of good quality, which drives up the percentage of good robots vs the bad ones.

Pretty much. The IS has far more types of mechs then the clans but the clans have better options. for every new IS mech it somehow obsoletes another.

If its truly "none of your business" then can you please keep it that way.

Imperius I do not understand your salt here...Russ before last town hall never gave us any real answers besides a little soon^TM, yea I admit maybe from his call out to you I had my hopes up as well for awhile on it, but after listening to what the man had to say and understanding what had to be done now....we just got 4 realitivly decent and unique mechs for Clans. All have a place imo and happy to see them in. Now go back to the last town hall....

Russ finally gave you the most complete answer to date on tte Mk II and when to expect it. He said a few months, not years months! That should have you jumping for joy honestly, they have thier agenda planned out almost 5 mechs or so (so 5 months? ) ahead of current drops so EVEN if Russ was thinking about it back then we would have it what next month? But considering we just got a bunch of Clan mechs probably not , assume we habe a few IS mechs next, cause it is thier turn now we could expect it maybe to minimum of 2 to 4 months. Imo better space 6 to 8 out. So before you get salty with us try going with the flow here, the water is nice and calm, things are going rather smoothly (beside the minimap hickup), it's a great time to grab a cold one and not stress so much over this stuff man. MK II is coming sooner then later, but if you continue to be salty and tie your self to it....could worsen the situation for the mech and ppl supporting it. LooK at Bishops thread it's in the lead tied with the Nova Cat, with out you needing to rant about the mech, ppl want it! It's coming...

Please man relax and go with the flow, it's far less stressful come mech release times

Back in February I was told a few months... I just leave it at that. I already said I won't believe a word out of that mans mouth until it's got concept art and a working buy page on the mwomercs site.

I'm not ranting about the mech either. First people still can't get my name out of their mouth even mods. Every time a carrot about the MK II is dropped out of Russ' mouth someone has to go where is Imperius. I just stated the obvious that we will go back to selling is mechs even though they still have more is mechs than clan so that justification that it's their turn still makes no sense.

As for me so called delaying the MK II I don't care either the longer they wait the less money they get from me. It's quite simple. It's of no consequence to me I have games to play.

1. Russ never said a few months back in Feb, it was more along the lines of soon. He has not till this b point gave any indication of a time frame. In fact before last month, he said he had no idea and could not give an answer to if sooner or later

2. It does make sense to have IS mehs, cause there are players who only play and buy IS mechs, just as there are Clan players who do not care to buy IS chassis. They have to give both players new shiny mechs it is only far to both players. Also till lately, talking about the Mk II was pleasant but usually as soon as people bring you up with it or you show up and start getting satly, thus putting a bad taste in people's mouth...people stop talking and do not want to talk with the Mk II, and that's not on the mech, it is on how you treat people man, sorry to say it bluntly but you do have a way of pissing people off and any good will that I or others have tried to get going for the mech is reversed...We were able to discuss about the mech pretty comfortably in your absence, soon as you show up though...see a link?

3. Can you be more selfish? The Mk II is wante by many ( its 2ND most said "worthy buy mech" in Bishops thread, only to the Bushwacker. You saying if the mech gets delayed because of your actions as something you do not care about! WTF honestly! Your entitlement like this and lack of responsibility for your own words and actions, seriously man.....immature and selfish much? As stated I have been trying a campaign of goodwill and having patients with the community over this mech. With you in self isolation for the past month or so, things for the mech in the public eye finally started to go back up and the mech ws not nearly as much a running joke. Once again it was because of how you treated people when discussing the mech....and You saying you do not care if you acting like an a$$ affects it or not....is out right selfish, let me tell you....you were not and are not the first vocal person who likes the mech as thier favorite mech....it is not "your" mech......your tie with the mech does affect it's image thigh sadly cause you were so vocal and abrasive you tarnished it's image yes you! Some People have a personal issue with the mech because of you....you need to reflect on that...yes you have been quite lately for the most part, but you really do need to reflect on how your actions and how you present yourself does affect the public image of the mech. It is frustrating that even after all the dust settles it is frustrating that discussion on the MK II is still a tricky subject because of you, not because of how controversial the mech is, because of your blatant abrassive past with the mech that many do not utter it's name in fear of invoking you and ruining a pleasant debate and discussion.

If you must talk about it, I implore you to be very careful on how you hold your self in the conversation and leave the satly, bitter, angry person at the door and act like a God damn human being who has no more voice in the matter then the next guy. There is a reason the ones you considered enemies alot I consider friends, it's about how you treat people, and you could learn a thing or two about being more diplomatic in your approach.
