That cockpit. what does that belong to at 1:30? i keep comming back to the Shadowcat cause the rest of the clan mechs cockpits are more rounded and bubble like but im not to sure.

Also Tina seems to be super shy and Alex doesnt look like he want to be there making it kinda cringy. Thats my review.

SO how does this

turn into this?


btw i know they are not same varients above, but imagine the bottom as a 0X

Maybe, because of this?

Welcome back, DevLog! A little more preparation and a bit more confidence would be nice. Go on! For your first Video of that new type, you get a +1!

Poor Alex. He must feel bad that there aren't any frorum trolls gushing about their undying lust for him. I'd say that some of his concept art is so nice it makes me feel funny in the pants, but I'm not sure that would really make him feel any better.

Anyway, stupid creeper comments aside, I thought the sound mix was a little off. It was like listening to mama bear, pappa bear and baby bear. Alex's voice was booming and almost blown out at times, tina's was like trying to listen to a conversation down the hall and Lisa's was just about right. I had my hand on the volume knob of my speakers to adjust the whole time depending on who was talking.

The format was decent though. Having multiple people with somewhat related jobs on at the same time worked out ok, but I think you could get away with doing two one-on-one interviews as well. I was going to suggest specifically bringing in some forum questions that related to the person's work, but the whole 'new pilot' thing was pretty much what I would have expected to see, so functionally it was there even if it wasn't attributed specificallty as a question from the forum. So, decent choice of content there.

Other than that, I enjoyed watching the video, so good job so far.

[Alistair Winter]

This interview was not at all awkward.

I keep coming back to the ebj. Scat has too flat a front pane for that, and no side windows. The crows cockpit is more blocky than I would expect, so maybe the same with the jag.

[dezgra]

Nice job. Thanks, I figured the VLOG's where history. I can't wait for clan pilots to get shorts, and combat boots...hint...hint.

I think that's the MDD.

It's cheaper, and faster to just use the regular CTF assets, than design a new one from the ground up. At least that's my guess.

Nah, i dont see its weird gyro thingy on the side or a place one would be and the counsel is well rounded. It could be the Jags?

how hard would it be to move the weapon mount onto the upper shoulder? I find the 0X as a scapegoat to shut the IS up about ECM heavies... and it shouldn't work it doesn't look or function like what the CTF-ox is and should be.

[MrEdweird]

The Mechwarrior Fighter rig in the background is AWESOME. I love the swinging Crab

Also those mechs under the screen, next to Alex's right arm...

I could have sworn the third one from the left looked like an Annihilator. Oh well.

Bushwacker next year pl0x.

I am very happy to have ordered a Crab pack, finally a good looking non-humanoid chicken walker other than the Cicada.

Please stop beating this dead horse in every goddamn topic. MWO devs are just as authoritative as the artist whose work you cherry-picked, and yours wasn't made for MWO. Plenty of CTF art where the ballistic is on the waist as well.

You won't get anywhere with this.

Is it bad that I just ignored the people and all the information and just focused on the wee wittle raven on that table?

Pitty pgi dosnt have the physical merchandising rights because I would be throwing money at these kinds of models from the ingame assets.

I think that those were the same mech models that were in some of the lunch party pictures on Russ' Twitter account.

We should probably encourage them to negotiate with Topps/Catalyst Games/IWM for cross-licencing artwork.

I am currently working on 3D-printing some of the models, and they will sure look great. The in-game models are really far away from being printable as they are, but with a few days of work in Blender, it can be done. A print can be used for making a mold... and a mold can be used for mass producing merchandise. I hope they will get the licencing done some day, as MWO's models for the older mechs are absolutely amazing.

I especially like Alex's KGC, so I will be printing a pile of those first.

That's the Black Knight.
Amusingly, Tina also didn't recognize it

[Wildstreak]

Those cockpits got a lotta polys to them.
