Also guys, behave, it's against forum rules to post details about unanounced content you've found in the gamefiles.

A few posts here were deleted, because they posted atual info about it.

Is it time to bring ceiling mech back? lol...

Let it be a secret, and we call the next generation the microwave generation. It seems we (gen x) are just as bad.

[Khanahar]

Fun fact I just learned: the Japanese folk hero "Kintaro" (tran: "Golden Boy") used as his favorite weapon a battleaxe or "Masa-kari."

Looks like the Kintaro thread got deleted. Dat censorship...

Why deleting a thread because of that?
If they didn't want to reveal the Kintaro, wouldn't be better to not insert it into the data before actually adding it to the game?

I completely agree with that. When I logged on this morning I was looking around for the thread (to see any updates) but couldn't find it anywhere.

From what I've gathered guys, the action was done by the community mods.

When called out on it in this thread: http://mwomercs.com/...55-tons-medium/, the IGP mod did nothing about it.

So, Kintaro next mech... (I was hopping it was an internal joke, not actual content)

They are really running out of ideas, aren't they?

someone has to be on the losing side... :|


Whoop, there it is...

Another generic humanoid 'mech. It looks more like a suit of armor than a 'mech, IMO.

With the announcement of the Kintaro, lets see where we stand...

Light
Commando
Spider
Raven
Jenner
Flea
Locust
--- Firestarter (reason: good weapon loadout, lots of variants)
--- UrbanMech (reason: fan favorite, Hero 'Mech would make PGI a fortune)

Medium
Cicada
Blackjack
Centurion
Hunchback
Trebuchet
Shadow Hawk
Kintaro
--- Wolverine (reason: leaked by news)

Heavy
Dragon
Quickdraw
Catapult
JagerMech
Cataphract
Orion
Thunderbolt
--- Black Knight (reason: Star League 'Mech, energy boat, command)

Assault
Awesome
Victor
Stalker
Highlander
Atlas
Battlemaster
--- Cyclops (reason: electronics oriented 'Mech, command)
--- Banshee (reason: fills 95 tonnage gap)

[Joachim Viltry]

Ugh, why do I feel like it will end up being the same height as a Quickdraw? the one good opportunity to build a wide and squat chassis, and we get this generic thing?

I see that they did the shoulders in the same overly boxy fashion as they did with the Dragon, so we have that niffty little faction design connection I guess...

I heard from somebody that the Kintaro is just barely shorter than a Cataphract, so if that's true then the Kintaro may end up in a good place.

Odanan, you have to admit the Black Knight is a sexy 'Mech.

[Joachim Viltry]

I like the original better, than the MW4:BK version.
