Lol, my company's websense blocked that as "illegal or questionable"...not sure what it is, but that definitely describes Heffay!

YTMND has occasional NSFW content, which is why your company likely blocked it.

(The above link is only NSFW if you have an Urbanmech fetish.)

I just waited until I got home. I have already saw that animation, though.

It's older than the lifespan of most console games. :P

It's a place we can go in the end of the day and talk about one of our favorite subjects: mechs.

Anyway, if someone feel bored and don't want to read a book, he can instead read this thread from post one to post 10K+.
There is a lot of cool stuff buried around here, like the Strum lore lectures and the Bishop's drawings.

MEOW, baby, meow.

that Panther looks pretty sexy, at least from that angle.

Enforcer? Not in love with the stubby RA, and the cheeks are a little too pronounced, but otherwise pretty nice.

Put that Panther? Yeah, pussycat...... shagadelic!

That Stubby RA is because of the LBX. Since the last normalization for weapon appearance for the AC/20 and AC/10 the LBX actually looks small and stubby compared to the full sized AC/10.

With an AC/10 it will have a longer barrel.

That Panther looks smechsy. It will be the slowest IS light with it's engine cap (till the Urbie arrives) doing 115 / 127 kph. I welcome that as it would force me to a different light mech play style for a change. Maybe more of a ranged light.

The Enforcer is interesting. And btw am I the only one who thinks that mech has a giant looking head? :D
It will have a giant CT and tiny ST from the looks. XL friendly but might suffer from Jenneritis maybe. And the left arm looks like it gets blown off a lot. On the other hand it's a good shield.

I'm looking forward to play these mechs!

The Panther looks gorgeous.
One can imagine how good the Wolfhound would look in MWO...

Enforcer reminds me of a buff Firestarter.

That Panther is really tempting, actually. Looks amazing, just too bad it is IS...

Much better. But once done, I guess they won't change it anymore... :(

Well since the next mech pack is going to be released soon, I might as well put up my list of mechs I would like to see put into the game next,

Lights,

Flea - 20 tons IS
Mongoose - 25 tons IS
Javelin - 30 tons IS
Fire Moth - 20 tons Clan
Fire Falcon - 25 tons Clan
Arctic Cheetah - 30 tons Clan

Mediums,

Assassin - 40 tons IS
Clint - 40 tons IS
Crab - 50 tons IS
Dervish - 55 tons IS
Viper - 40 tons Clan
Phantom - 40 tons Clan
Shadow Cat - 45 tons Clan
Huntsman - 50 tons Clan

Heavies,

Lancelot - 60 tons IS
Black Knight - 75 tons IS
Linebacker - 65 tons Clan
Cauldron Born - 65 tons Clan
Night Gyr - 75 tons Clan

Assaults,

Charger - 80 tons IS
Crockett - 85 tons IS
Cyclops - 90 tons IS
Kingfisher - 90 tons Clan
Executioner - 95 tons Clan
Turkina - 95 tons Clan

All of these mechs are within a year of the timeline to be put in, (3052) and have at least 3 available variants. But some do need MASC, but are not necessarily too fast fast for the game. (expect the flea and firemoth) (and I know its the Ebon jaguar and not the cauldron born, just nobody calls it the ebon jaguar).

What?!? A list of possible up coming mediums that don't consist of a Bushwhacker? That's just crazy :)

Also, why not a Champion!

The Champion even has 3 variants that fall within the current timeline. Let's do it people, Champion FTW!
