With all the recent desire for fan input, Rak's Armory (aka Tahribator) produced the concept for a 'Mech that would appeal beyond any shadow of a doubt to the largest portion of the fanbase possible.

The Metatinator. MWO's own Alex Iglesias has taken the Metatinator's concept art:



And transformed it into a ready-to-model MWO war machine!



As part of Clan Wave 3.14, I have had the distinct pleasure of turning their brilliant artwork into a tabletop-and-MWO appropriate statted chassis, which will soon be available to anyone who buys the full Wave III package for a small additional fee of only $360 (includes a complimentary MG range 5 module for bonus 3 million C-bill value!)*

The MWO version will of course have a ballistic + 3 energy hardpoints on each arm, three missile and two AMS hardpoints in each side torso, and two very hard energy hardpoints where the Dingle-Berry Industries Collimator C-ERPPC is located in the center torso*** for maximum epeenetration!

Take my 360 dollars now! I need this mech as it pleases me in every way and is everything I have ever wanted!

Good work on this by the way I like the way it looks. Minus the special ppc down there. I can do without it.

One question, Does it come in black?

It comes with it's own unique skin for LRM users (seen above), and of course can be painted in Edgy Black for extra grimdark punch. *****

[Tahribator]

Awesome! Thanks for the stats.

[shameless]

I logged in just to like this. Great job man

[slide]

Nice concept.

Just to nit pick, you have the manufactured year at 3070 it is only 3050 which is what coincided with the Clan invasion you mention. 3070 would be Jihad era.

The PPC in the nuts would be just the right height to head shot Locusts

[Odanan]

Great mech! I would recomend 2 changes:
- make it 85 tons (lighter jump jets)
- the ER PPC in there won't be very useful. I would replace it for 2 medium (or small) pulse lasers.

[Harlock Fredrick]

love it lol

[Odanan]

Well, the Metatinator actually exists, and it's called Blood Asp.

Spoiler

Widowmaker1981, on 02 April 2015 - 03:31 AM, said:

Just a personal opinion, but i think the Blood Asp is too well optimised for MWO to be really balanced.. it makes the Timby look REALLY badly designed in comparison.

• 360XL engine in a 90 tonner? Perfect balance between speed and weight.
  
• ES for weight savings but no FF so internal space issues avoided (literally the only clan mech in existance with that combo)
  
• Up to 4 ST ballistic mounts as high up as it is possible for them to be (twin gauss/quad uac5 on the roof of the mech? imagine a king crab if its ballistics were in the torsos...)
  
• Humanoid with all the advantages in durability that brings (including nice high mounted cockpit, so no being shot at by things you cant see)
  
• 3E in each arm for actuated laser vomit backup to the ballistics
  
• 42 tons of pod space at max armour with 4 hardwired heatsinks.
  
• A and B variants have ECM in the CT
  
• A and E variants have JJs (A variant has 1 in CT 1 in each ST, E has 2 in each leg. A Variants ST JJs are useless since no weapon hardpoints with them though)

TOO DAMN GOOD. if it was released id never drive another mech tbh.

Coming in 2016.

*bows 30.5 degrees, a rare honor*

[Fenrisian Wolf]

I want to have that mechs babies

[A 143]

So the most meta mech in MWO would be an awkward fusion of a fire moth and one of star craft's Goliaths?
