[Alistair Winter]

The Cicada is going to be fantastic.

I hope the Nova D-variant has a nice CT quirk, because I know for damn sure nobody will be using the original omnipods on that thing

And the Zeus with XL390 engine and MASC is going to be interesting, for people who get that mech. Run it as a Super Saiyan Centurion SRM boat?

I've corrected the original post, the Zeus variant is not MASC-capable.

Yeah, Cicada with jump jets is going to be fun.

[InRev]

I've been waiting for so long for that Cicada variant . . .



This is amazing. Thank you so much!

[Davers]

Yeah, that Nova D is pretty darn bad looking. No Endo or FF either.

[Karmen Baric]

Any chance of getting the Cicada Loyalty mech for people who purchased a REINFORCEMENT MECH VIA THE GIFT STORE - or any mech for such purchases?

The mech is like the CDA-2A, but with JJs. I do hope the JJs are good on this guy.

It's a Nova. Meaning it's an omni. Rip out the current loadout.

Want MGs? Run the S side torsos and a ballistics arm, and then add a laser arm with pulse lasers.

Want lasers? Laser. Arms.

Want streaks? Missile arm with a Streak-6, Laser Arm with... y'know, lasers, NVA-A missile pack with Streak-6.

Want LRMS? Same as Streak config.


The possibilities are endlessly better than what is on paper. Novas are one of my consistently high scoring mechs, and I play with 300 ping on two of the three servers, and 400 on the third (goddamn ISP hasn't rerouted my access to the OC server).

No Nova in the game has endo or FF.

[Nightshade24]

hyped for the Nova D, it was something I wanted for a long time
hyped for cicada 3F, I just mentioned it a few days ago as well.
hyped for the zeus 9S2, I was going to stock+ it on the other variants until now
hyped for the Wolverine 7D I guess, I got no wolverines but I may get into them now I guess, also IS masc.
hyped for executioner C, it's ballistic hardpoint makes the executioner able to run duel UAC 20, on a 95 ton mech with MASC and twin UAC 20's you will bring lots of pain.

I qualify for all. so I am very happy.

I know that. I'm just disappointed that PGI is 'rewarding' me with a mech that is so absolutely trash that I will have to literally replace everything from weapons to torsos and limbs because it doesn't have a single redeemable feature.

You know, I have Elited 3 of them and never really noticed that. I guess since they are Clan mechs I don't concern myself with looking at upgrades.

[Tarogato]

I'm just a little disappointed they chose the WVR-7D instead of the WVR-7M. The -7D is pretty awful. It's just a worse 6R but with MASC. Why no -7M?

[Danielio97]

Hell yeah! I've been asking for CDA-3F since February! Now I can finally have my Cicada with jumpjets! Oh and that WVR-7D with MASC... This is gonna be awesome! I'm kinda meh about that Zeus, since I have 4 of them and I kinda don't feel like eliting out another one

[Tuann]

Free stuff for being a good customer,... Bloody nice,...

Thanks ! appreciated !

Edited by Tuann, 10 September 2015 - 10:35 PM.

[STEF_]

Oh well! CDA with JJ!
Really happy with this!

[White Bear 84]

Already playing with Cicada builds.

SNIPER

HARASSER.

3 tonnes is left for the JJ. Keeping these on for the lolz.

Notes (Ignore CT energy slots. Leave 3t for JJ)

[Navid A1]

Hmm... That NVA-D is one sad sad nova.!

EXE-C too!

Why is the NVA-D sad? It is just as sad as all other novas...

and why the Exe-C? it has a very vital hardpoint: a ballistic arm.
"but nightderp we already got like 2 ballistic arms that do the same thing!!1!"
Well this one is on the OTHER arm... meaning we can have 2 missiles 1 arm and 1 B on the other. Or run twin ballistic UAC 20's. etc.
