Well... It's simple the % is off the charts, this is why they can't give them!

I seriously anticipate significant crying from non-Urbie pilots/Haters on release....and I'm going to LMAO at all of them.
True enough, all of the NGNG spot light videos are showcasing a mech focuses on high points, and understand that odds were the mech was "Elited" for the sake of the video.

So... you have a 30T mech with an engine cap of 180 (two models Jump capable) and IMO hard-points that would make some heavy mechs blush with inadequacy.....AND .... 360 degree torso twist, which until right now, I'm willing to bet most people really haven't considered the full advantage of being able to move at full speed (106kph) IN ANY DIRECTION in relation to your target and maintaining good visual contact if not a solid lock.

I'm not saying Urbie is going to de-throne the Firestarters, Spiders and Jenners as Light Mech royalty... but he is sure as hell going to be the push over little trash can people expects him to be.

I you see an enemy lance of them headed your way? Toss a teammate front of you and run. Its like outrunning a bear. You don't need to be the fastest, just don't be the slowest.

I'll get the popcorn ready for the hate, discontent and QQing when they drop Tuesday lol.

Yeeaaah...106 KPH. What a silly preview. Show us classic urbie, not this silly warpspeed urbie monstrosity.

[Hawk819]

And to think. . . Tuesday is only around the corner.

I only saw One True UrbanMech in that Video.

I also saw a 30% Range Bonus to Small Lasers
No General Ballstic Bonus was in at the Time of the Video
No General Energy Bonus were in at the Time of the Video
How did I see this you ask.

Weapon / Stock Range/ Range with Range Module / Range seen in Video

AC2 / 720m / 792m / 792m
UAC-5 / 600m / 660m / 660m
M-Pulse Laser / 220m / 242m /242m
S-Laser / 135m / 149m / 189m

As you can see the Medium Pulse Laser does not go pass the stock range with Range Module. But the Small Laser has another 40m Pass the stock range with Range Module. So 40/135 = 0.296 = 30% Range Boost on that UrbanMech Chassie

There was other cockpit easter eggs. Monitor shot out with bullet hole. "no signal detected". Like two repair tickets. And some radioactive caution do not open stuff on the left side.

[TripleEhBeef]

Well it seems Glorious UrbanMech can actually be run as a half decent light mech, or more of a pint sized fast medium.

Still want to rock an AC20 on mine though.

[MonkeyCheese]

I know many want to run them stock but Im thinkin a max speed legit build for my hero with big old cannons for the other 2 but I will prob still run em speedyish.

[Smoked]

Why is Phil being so mean to Bombadil. He is just pwning him with whatever build.

[ExoForce]

Nice Kit Fox variant. Glad I bought it.

Looking at the video you can get a 2x LL 4x MG and an Ac.10 with 2x med lasers while keeping the same speed and mobility not bad at all in my books.

Because either Bombadil is not very good or he is making easy for Sean.

Or just blame the HSR it always works as cheap excuse!!

[Mark of Caine]

Never will be a fan of the Urbanmech, but the Death Blossom video made my day! Awesome job PGI.

[ccrider]

Damn it. I fought so hard but the warhorn got me. Count me in as an urbie lover waiting for Tuesday.

[Gusevich]

Here's a rough comparison between a TrashCan and a Spider. I just paused the video on the right moment

need more pictures....... PLEASE?


They got hockey goalie/baseball catcher knee/shinguards

[C E Dwyer]

As much as I love the warhorn and the stein, seeing an urban mech skipping across canyon like a spring lamb disturbs me, it should be a stmping inercity killer mech, hopeless in open territory. That thing should just not be going 100kph plus

not to be picky, but shouldn't the dustbin, have a raccoon on top trying to get in
