Clearly that is a Fafnir cockpit...

[BlueDog]

Based on the window positioning we have so far, I'd have to guess Hunchback as well.

[rollermint]

I don't think that is the Hunchback. As we all know, the right window view of the Hunchback cockpit is quite literally blocked by that huge AC 20 on its right shoulder...but you couldn't see that on the cockpit concepts.

Of course, its not really a good idea to have that in-game wise so it could just as well be a Hunchback. I just don't think it is or should be.

Like I have been saying all along. Bonus fragment!

Cockpit looks really nice. I hope those screen displays become an integrated and functional part of the game, and not just fluff.

[Mordegald]

Well, whomever that cockpit may belong to, it looks frickin' boss. Let's hope all the 'mech internals look that cool.

That's actually the inside of Paul's head.

What a scary place that must be

You liked your own post. That's funny.

Pre-meds, or post?

I noticed he likes his posts too, he must be trying to pad that green number so people trust him.

Then whose head is the Warhammer's cockpit with the hula girl?

[Rogal Dorn]

Besides the requisite hula girl I would like my cockpit to feature a crushed red velvet command chair. Make it so.

Mine in purple ****. Relaxation during combat helps me focus.

Wow. I can't say the word for LONG HAIRED carpet? Oh yeah. It's also Austin Powers favorite word for, well, doin it.

I want my pilot's seat upholstered in faux leopard skin, AND I want fuzzy dice lol.

[Iron Horse]

Based on the overhead view it looks like a Warhammer to me.

I'm really happy with the level of detail PGI seems to be going for so far

EDIT: After looking at the cross-section it's pretty clearly a Hunchy. I'm still holding out hope for the Unseen, though.

While the cockpit cross sections look very Hunchbackish, in the pics posted on facebook, there is this one shot (hit the previous picture to the first one that comes up) that catches a status display that is clearly not of a Hunchback. Of the four mechs confirmed so far, the display looks closest to a Dragon, but not quite clear enough to tell for sure. (couple of folks say Centurion, and I can see that, maybe a Trebucket, but doesn't have much of a helmet). But is that the target much or the pilot's mech?

Agreed, I think it's going to be the Dragon, as well.

Of the four mechs confirmed so far, the display looks closest to a Dragon, but not quite clear enough to tell for sure.

Wow, good eye! I honestly have no idea what 'mech that is.

Also looks like these are using in-game assets!

Oh? Who's shooting missiles at him? Is working at PGI that dangerous?

[Kallian Ryke]

Anyone else noticed that the cockpit is facing towards an -ocean? lake?- while missiles are incoming?
