The flea is a troll mech with a bad fanfiction grade intro story.


Drop some PUGs against a group of light mechs, it will probably end the same way.

Looking forward to another assault whatever it ends up being. Would love to see the Mauler in game but I know that's a bit of a pipe dream. New artwork on the Banshee could be very bad a$$!

My hope is the Battlemaster. I was the king of it in the ancient Multiplayer Battletech 3025 and would love to relive a little of that glory.

You awoke extra early today just to post didn't you? (lol) Here is to hoping we are correct regardless of the outcome.


It was disappointing to do not see a new Assault today... I have no idea of what the PGI guys are planning.

Skipping January was... cruel.

Planning?

PGI has plans?

BAAAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAAAHAHAHAAAHHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

Seriously, I wish there was schedule for releasing items that was adhered too, or explained when it is not met.

There has been some recent post regarding this, and they are much appreciated.

But then PGI is damned if they do, damned if they dont....someone will be pissed-off no matter what.

Perhaps justifyably so...or not.

Fun for all to be sure.

Technically we did get a new Assault for January, it just has a silly name, weapons payload that makes little sense, a flamboyant paint job and cost's 6,000 MC?. :huh: Obviously not what we expected but secretly it's halfway what I thought might happen when I saw they released that monstrosity. Keep your heads up guys the next new (Non-Hero) 'Mech art will be here soon. :o

I'd much rather they add a new map before a new mech even with different modes/time of day playing river city gets really old after the 6th time in a row

Wrong thread for that buddy. This is speculating on what mechs they haven't announced yet.

There is a possible reason to this; CLAN MECHS.. they are developing multiple classes and mechs and swamp by the work. So only on March we hear something..

I also support that theory, but it stands and falls with the fact we haven't got the last IS assault yet.

im guessing they decided to skip janauary and reveal the final I.S Assault in Febuary, that way they can reveal the first Clan mech in time for the invasion in march.

I'm pretty sure this decision wasn't up to PGI. IGP decides when and how things are released and they have an odd way of doing things.

No they don't. Whoever told you this is wrong.
