The only problem is that, in 2 years I'll already be entrenched in Star Citizen or another game.

Not trying to bring the thread down but, just like Odanan, MW:O's lost a lot of it's luster for me.

Hah! Same here. MWO is no longer our prime game, cause it still lacks some important features to use it well as a clan squadgame. For now, it's only one of our subprojects. MWO needs much more time, but atm., we're bored of it.
However, we will continue to keep an eye on MWO and we'll run it again, if it's worth it.

Well, i'm out for a while! Cya guys!

BTW: A nice "RSI Aurora MR" is waitingin my SC Hangar!

see PGI?
time to go to work!

[FireSlade]

Here is my clan wish list:
[Lights]

• Kit Fox
  
• Adder

[Mediums]

• Shadow Cat
  
• Nova

[Heavies]

• Mad Dog
  
• Ebon Jaguar
  
• Hellbringer
  
• Summoner
  
• Timber Wolf

[Assaults]

• Warhawk
  
• Supernova
  
• Dire Wolf

I am not sure if you noticed my favorite class yet. Anyways I wonder how PGI will implement the mechs that cannot torso twist (Adder, Nova, Ebon Jaguar, etc.). My other question to PGI is because Omni-mechs are, well Omni-mechs, can we add non-weapon equipment to them? An example would be in the Jade Phoenix Trilogy; Aidan Pryde had his Timber Wolf equipped with JJs and his daughter Diana’s Warhawk equipped with them too, along with the majority under his command. Both mechs that do not have any JJs with any of their configurations.

[CDLord HHGD]

I'd like to see the Fire Moth. They are gonna have to get a handle on mech speeds and MASC first though.... Dashing around at 216 kph with MASC and a stock config.... Blazing fast.

All Clan 3050 omni mechs are comming. Second line Clan mechs (except for the IIC) are probably not to be included because of lack of variants.

Shhhh quiet about that (the devs might hear you). Anyway, even if the fluff says these mechs don't torso twist, that should not be translated in the game. Because? Well, these mechs would be unplayable.

The same way they implemented the Jenner and Locust?

MW3 managed to pull it off by giving the arms much more mobility to make up for the lack of twist. Although FupDup could be correct in that they would just redesign them to twist like MW4 did.

First look at the Shadow Hawk. Very sexy looking.

I agree with your picks 100%.

[SgtMagor]

add a Black Knight could use 2 75ton mechs.

Don't you know, Odanan despises the Black Knight.

[Damocles]

Javelin! For completions' sake.

[Nathan Foxbane]

All the Black Knight variants available in 3050 had, for MWO purposes, identical builds. And they are all energy builds with identical weapon placement. The only changes are either to the internal structure and armor, heat sinks, or type of energy weapon. Even the Jihad and Dark Age variants did little to change the fundamental build formula.

For the iconic look, corrupted forever by MW4, the Black Knight is a really boring 'Mech when it comes to variants.

It is a great mech in TT that wouldn't fit in MWO.

Champion probably is the top of my list for the next heavy. Black Knight could also be cool, but I've never been as much of a fan of humanoid designs.

Of course, the very top of my list would be the Marauder, but...

(Next light I expect Firestarter.)

Love the Gundam style Black Knight but with MWO's heat dissipation all energy loadouts would just cook making DPS for them low. Also for naysayers, remember the quickdraw, not much difference between the variants so why not for the Black Knight. Though if PGI ever brings in a stock only mode then these would rock.

First Look-Battlemaster

[Jack Gallows]

This

and this....

https://pbs.twimg.co...I1KT6.jpg:large

Both look better in game then their concepts! Good looking machines!

So, noticed it a while back but it's easier to see here a bit, not sure how many people recognized that the Battlemaster has the double thumbs like the Shadow Hawk
