hope im not the only one who sometimes likes walking like an atlas, with the arms in angle i mean haha been doing it since 6


Lol, I used to walk around like a Mechwarrior 2 Warhawk, with my hands by my face in the dual gun position haha. Would roleplay as a mech around the house.

And sometimes when I see someone wearing baggy cargo pants, it reminds me of the Summoner and Hellbringer's bulky legs.

...you ask questions and give advice while your kid builds a vehicle in Robocraft until he finally says "Dad! This isn't Mechwarrior Online! It's not that complicated!"

When you wish you had a Daishi to take on the highway to and from work.

Yeah! Cut me off now ass holes! :lol: :lol: :lol: Melee declared.

Dat speed tho....

I usually fantasize about having a Jenner-F instead. 150 kmph, and 6 ML for ever-lasting roadrage. It can also jump over obstacles and is small enough to take most tunnels. :D

Btw I know I'm a mechwarrior when I hear a radio commercial for 'refurbished Macs' and think "Hallelujah!! They have arrived!".

when reading news/media all normal accronyms are mechwarrior related.

DHS is Double Heat Sinks, not Department of Homeland Security
MW is Mechwarrior, not Modern Warfare (already mentioned)
MASC, ACs, UACs, MPLs, etc.

When any mech from any franchise moving past 170 KPH is always moving Waaaay too fast and it should not be so.

When Aerospace is immediately followed in your mind by "fighter"

When the word "Clans" should always be capitalized...

When your spellcheckers recognize the words "Mechwarrior" "MWO" "Mechlab" etc...

You cut cardboard boxes out so they fit on your nieces legs, arm and "TORSO" give her a nerf gun and pretend im the IS SCUM she gets to shoot!

She will be a grand mechwarrior someday! Or Pokemon trainer! lol

Yeah, I guess you're right on the speed part. In the moment though the overall doom bringer factor of the Daishi always makes it a soothing thought for me.

You see an Atlas on the shelf at Walgreens and think Cool a book on the Atlas mech" and are disappointed when you see it has maps.

You see the red lights of a car reflected on a wall and while the wall itself is red you think oh crap incoming arty.

Your three year old knows Spiders, Locusts, cicadas, urbies, shadowhawks, and commandos by sight and is begging you to buy a stalker that he can drive around in the testing grounds.


this, as well as your wife asking you how far you have dropped on the leader board challenge as you slept.

When you change your startup sound on your computer to
"Reactor: Online, Sensors: Online, Weapons: Online, All Systems Nominal"

I did that myself, until I had to reinstall windows later on.
