There, I said it. Now I'll go place my order.

Game over man, game over. That thing would rock the world (Jagermech with no IS XL vulnerability and clan weapon mass would be some scary stuff. Quad UAC5 / Twin Gauss + lasers / Triple UAC10)

Im not sure the HG problems with the originals extend to the IICs, because they look REALLY different..

How is this:

Different from that:

They are still very similar, and the whole "derivative work" malarkey can still be argued, which HG will do till the end of time.

Me too. Sadly, unless you can get in touch with The Punisher, and have him do a number on Harmony Gold, I don't like our chances.

Yeah, I would love to have a Marauder, IS or Clan, whatever. Really bums me out HG and the stupid IP laws.


But, having these super Hunchie's will tide me over.

Sad that my Oxide is trash (without a MAJOR overall), but flying Hunchie's with dual UAC20s will make me happy enough. lol

It'd be better this way:

Locust IIC
Griffin IIC
Rifleman IIC
Warhammer IIC

Then Pack 2:

Wolfhound IIC/Commando IIC
Shadow Hawk IIC/Clint IIC
Guillotine IIC
Marauder IIC/Phoenix Hawk IIC

I'd love to see this instead, and for the value, getting an Extra variant plus another Two `Mechs and their extra variants to go with each would definitely open my wallet for $160 bucks.

While we're on the subject of the 'unseen', how about Aerotech and Citytech integration?

LAMs
Elementals
Infantry
Tanks

Will pay good money for the fun factor.

Since we appear to have IS mech's becoming clan, does that mean we will have an IS timberwolf. Call it the Treedog

The IS Timber Wolf is the MDG-1A Rakshasa

[Wildstreak]

Well, finally got to order, that problem is solved.

[DasSibby]

Wow. Now Clanners truly have the best of both worlds...

Just... Ow.

Like... you will shoot constantly as infantry whole 15 mins to atlas leg, putting down 1% from his armor at the end of the match, while been scared, beeing one stomped from urbie......

They get bazookas. Those can really hurt mechs.

Also, dropping a building on a mech can be enough to kill it sometimes.

It would be cool to play as a clan elemental, but I am not sure who that would work. My guess is five would count as one mech, but would that be five different people or would you control five elementals. The same could be true for IS infantry, but aerospace I would guess would be a whole mini-game.

Regardless it would be cool to see some of that implemented in the game. But before that happens they will have to add in a bunch of IS advanced weaponry. With the new IIC's coming out it is truly the best of both worlds for the clans unless I have over looked something.

Graphics wise, this game is set for life. Really, an online game doesn't need to look any better. All they will ever need to do from now on, is update some of the texture files every few years (step 1: Get rid of the crappy ones, why are some camos still showing up in awful texture?), They just need to get the game modes done right, and streamline their asset development method.

After that, crank out game modes, add assets as necessary, and this game can literally go on for a long time, with a growing player population, and include all of the things we're talking about, and then some.

[LORD ORION]

No pre-order bonus on ala-carte doesn't make any damn sense. (I want the Orion, none of the others [I dont pilot those IS mechs])

Take my $35 and give me early adaptor bonus content.

NO

OK, take my $20 and give me me the same bonus content.

OK

Still no clue about customer satisfaction huh?

[htsmithium]

Quick question, will mastery of the IS versions carry over to the clan version?

[Dawnstealer]

So what I'm getting here is that I should just give up on the IS and switch to Clans, right?

You have been enjoying the advantage in your overquirked IS mechs with unlocked engines, the ability to take STD engines to compete with Clan XL durability, and unlocked ES/FF slots for too long. FINALLY, Clans get battlemechs which will finally be able to compete with the Inner Sphere overlords.

Finally the Clans get BattleMechs in the first place. We have OmniMechs right now. That being said, I still do not know if I should buy the package. Well, still a few days left to think about it.

It doesn't seem like it will. Their names will be different (Notice how it's ON-IIC-A, instead of ON-IICA ?)

No, not really. I personally think they will be good. They still won't be competitive mechs.

[1453 R]

Still haven't bought IIC. Increasingly convinced I won't, whale status or otherwise. Just too much pack too quickly, especially when the Hunch and the Orion both look so incredibly meh. I've got enough 'meh' 'Mechs out of packs, more than I've mastered in a long, long time. May yet get Jenners just for giggles, twenty bucks isn't too much of a stretch, but jeez...what next, guys?
