You can tell if you look closely here


You can clearly see the aesthetic touches of the mechs we have in-game. Antennas, AMS (top right), Gear racks (top right)

ITS COMINGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG

Get 10 of them on a team and I can go urbie bowling.

[Lord Ikka]

Should be easy to acquire too. 1.5mil for the base model and the other variants shouldn't be too much more.

[El Bandito]

All I remember is the fact that Urbies were the easiest mech to head-shot, back in MW2: Mercenaries. Easiest salvage ever.

[Agent 0 Fortune]

I hope they put it on treads, because there is no way they will be able to get the leg animation even remotely accurate.
They didn't even get the Direwolf right and it has a fixed engine.

This assumes it's out for C Bills when released. Somehow I don't think that's going to be a thing.

The Urbanmech, the mech that will be a complete detriment to the team it gets put on....

Its gunna be "Team with the most Urbies loses'.....

[Valdherre Tor]

I can't wait any longer...... I have saved all my chore money from doing grandma's dishes. I'm about 64 dollars shy of $500 so I can buy a gold Urbie when PGI releases it.

[Kenyon Burguess]

no one noticed that the max engine for the panther was set at 250xl? guess how bad the urbie engine will be limited too. ug bad mech is bad

[Votanin FleshRender]

I played a lot of TT back in the 80's, but... the Urbie fascination completely eludes me. I even tend towards playing mechs that are 'underappreciated' a lot, and I still don't get it.

Meh, it will be a trashcan people take out once in a while for the lolz. Seriously...too slow...trashcan shape, light mech armor.

Not necessarily. There are occasions, such as defending the Omega, where you don't need to get around very fast. If they give the AC10 strong quirks. It could be viable as a last ditch defender.

[Tarogato]

SHUN THE NONBELIEVERS.

Bow before your Urbanmech overlords. Fear the AC/10. Cower from the small laser. Your day of reckoning will soon come.

[terrycloth]

It might be really, really tiny. Like, a locust without the legs.

[wanderer]

We're just going to enjoy the super-small-engined AC/20 obliteration that should occur.

30 ton quirked AC/20 turrets can make that gate rush an exercise in suffering. Or heck, classic AC/10.

And yes, that's definitely an Urbie in the background. Easily compared to the Christmas preview.

You obviously never watched the 'Urbie Spider' videos. Urbie is gonna wreck face.

The day the Urbie arrives is the day I take a break from Elite Dangerous and return to this game.
