I'm not entirely sure what you're getting at here, what does a monitor inside the shadowcat have to do with a paint scheme?

That said, IMO it looks good on that particular camo spec. >_>

They do look great, however.
All Clans use the shadowcat and all clans fight for the glory of Kerensky we may fight like sisters and brothers but we are all of the same family unless your saying your not a clanner?

Yep, IIIIIII'm waitin.
fully agree like ammo status, ecm status ,beagle status, Targeting computer status?
heck even a weapon hit point status monitor would give some functionality to those silly monitors

And status as in (damaged undamaged online offline?)

backup cameras anyone?

Dude, we paid money for it.



Dude, we paid money for it, in advance!



Dude, if you want to communicate, which really is questionable in the first place. You should at least try to find the correct words and some proper basic etiquette yourself, before you demand it from others.



Guess what? Me neither.



I might play captain obvious here but i'll guarantee you MWO would be long dead and forgotten if not for the diehard battletech fancommunity which happen to have "some sentimental value left". *

* Guess what, strike that part. MWO would never have happened in the first place if not for the "sentimental value".


Most of this doesn't apply...

You paid money, for pixels that isn't even in propper pixel form and complain about pixels you had 0 idea about and complain it isn't exactly what you thought and paid for it in advance VERY well knowing that it won't be exactly as you imagined and knew risks will be involved.

(translation: you paid based on the concept art, which is never 100% exact of normal art and is only 1 angle, and complain about cockpit which you got no art on, and knew there were risks)

Dude, if you want to pay for something you want to know about first, why not wait until after release? seriously. It's no ones fault but your own.


Do you even have a straight face behind that monitor?
Because I am debating if you are serious or not. Or trying to be at that.

PGI even explicitly said that there are risks involved in pre ordering hence the extra bonuses before it's out. You can always buy it a day after it is released so you got all the time to look at your cockpit and mech outsides.
Seriously, This shouldn't even be a reminder but PGI does remind you either way and also compensate for that accordingly.
You could always sell all the mechs you got in the pack and equipment and make more c-bills then you spent on dollars using the MC to C_bill conversions if you are that unhappy.

It is true that the Direwolf is not that common in ghost bear control, however the Direwolf isn't that common at all to begin with. (obvious more common sight on the battlefield then the atlas II, Woodsman, etc... but due to price and mass and such it isn't that common on the field. )

Ghost bear colours on the direwolf makes just as much sense as wolf or falcon.

For timberwolf? Still as common as smoke jag or falcon. It is quite a popular chassis across all mechs and due to the Ghost bears love for the mad dog (which is 50% identical to the timberwolf) it gives lots of spare parts opportunities.


Sure... shadowcat and ebon jaguar is the only mechs on paper that should not be in any colours in 3050 to 3052...However not having those paints available would be just as logical as removing them from the faction completely... And this will go hurt most factions a lot.. imagine the Cappallens without 90% of the mechs in game?


I hope in the future that factions in CW will depend on repair values, using icon mech (ie a mad dog in clan ghost bear) is very cheap to say a ebon jaguar due to the scarcity of the parts and economics. Boosting the usage on iconic mechs of the clan and lowering that of non.
Also an idea earlier was that iconic mechs get a LP bonus and that this system can help out the later on features of using salvaged tech.

I'd rather continue the butthurt about cockpit monitors instead ;) . Skins don't impede performance.

The timeline is currently a little blurred... we already had the Battle of Tukayyid once (that would be 3052) and a CW reset, which means we can't say we are exactly in 3050.

BTW, by 3052 other Clans are already using the Shadow Cat.

Less than two days to go, and coming out on my birthday no less. B) Just wish I knew about it sooner so I could get the C variants.

I bought the shadow cat pack as soon as I saw it, I dig that mech so much, first mech I ever played in a mw video game. Also happy birthday c:

The shadow cat aside, I have to mention how absolutely amazing the ACH looks without missile pods, PGI did a fantastic job on that, even better than the EBJ.

The pre-sale variants for the Jag and Exe are in the gift shop... but yeah waiting for the MC/C-bill versions sucks. Want those Exe-D torso pods with more energy hardpoints... :P

Thanks! I was pretty much sold on it once I saw it too, just for the load outs and how the designs seemed to make sense. I've really enjoyed the Ebon Jag, and if these come out of the gate the same way I'll be very happy. :)

Yeah, the C variants for these mechs look beastly, that's why I was kicking myself for not having seen them coming up for sale sooner.
