I'll waddle between his legs and stuff them down his throat.....via his binghole! (well..... up it, technically!)

I know a lot of Ladies and Gents are on their knees at night praying for the release of this mech so I hope it is true. This machine should not be ale to move as fast as a jenner, panther, or centurian for that matter. I suspect Nostalgia value more than Playability. The Spider run videos had their goodpoint though they cannot be ignored for long.

Hey guys, here is a scary thought for you. If the Urbanmech follows size by weight it should be about as big as a Spider. It will be another mech with JJs and having MWO customization rules will mean that customizable speed with an increased engine cap.

This thing would be a waste of MWO resources... I mean really It's 100% tier 10 mech

max engine rating 160
Full 360 torso turn.
Jumpjets.
Most likely an AC 10 and 20 quirk for this "T5+" mech.
Increased everywhere armour quirk most likely.

This will be a monster in CW... It'll have the advantage of not being the focus target and thus easy to get free damage out and also it is a nice lighter mech for big guns and close range fire support when you got to many heavies and assaults in your drop deck...

I also hope the clans get there urbanmech IIC....

and it will sell like hotcakes, meaning regardless it's in game stats, it's a great idea to put it in.

Urbie can go as fast as a centurion with following TT and MW: O rules.

It's max engine rating is 160. which gives it 95.0 kph WITH speed tweak.

To be honest though I would not go that fast. I want to have a large gun on mine.
(at least an AC 20 and an AC 10 on 2 of the 3 variants...)

Yes, yes, yes!
Finally IS players will have Mech of quality comparable to Clan lights. Vith visuals clearly documenting its battle values.

T10 urban mech = AC 20 has more range then gauss rifle and tracks enemies like SSRM's. You fire 3 shots of AC 20 every second and you get 100 point armour bonus to each area.

Make it happen.

I personally think this would have been an excellent opportunity for a Christmas charity event, to the children's hospital or whatever. Something similar to Sarah's Jenner. Minimum donation of $10 could get you 3 (Or just the one, make it elitable on the 1 chassis, as a selling point). It could have been profitable given the amount of people already willing to pay for the little bugger!!!! And with that santa paint job I'd even buy one knowing it was going to a good cause.
PGI could use a rest from the haters lol. This way it wouldn't look like a cash grab

I hate those kinda things... not because I hate charity or poor little sarrah but it's the fact those have no payment options (gift card) that I can use. I sit here with thousands of dollars for MW: O and can't spend any off it for charity.

Actually, you can. Buy Karma Koin game cards, which donate a % of proceeds to charity, then use said game card to buy MW:O currency/mc and packs. The promotion they had running for the past month just ended on the 22nd in fact, but had some considerable extra bonuses for buying various tiers of mc packages, which was an added benefit to the method of purchase donating to charity.

I did get it but I can't buy an urbie with it (or if it existed back in the day, I can't get a sarrah jenner)

Omg, an idea to give the sick and the ill money! What kind of low life person are you. Am I right? :rolleyes:

To be honest if the urbie was the mech you buy for the charity thing they will have lot off money coming in... because nearly everyone in this game will get it and lots of new old time MW fans will get it.

What? Way to turn that around. I don't even want the damn thing, it was just an idea... Because you know its christmas...? It didn't have to be for a hospital either it was just an example.
I'll keep my good ideas to myself from now on.

Gentlemen, I have had a realization. We shall not see the Urbanmech, not for some months to come.

I predict it shall be released... on the 1st of April.

Ideally, there will be no prior warning, it'll just seem like a patch for some April Fool's event, when suddenly... Urbanmech.

...For real, this time.

and someday, if implemented right, a Rotary AC5.......
