Though I don't really like the looks of the Shadow Hawk, I do hope they add Zues into the game

Shadow Hawk is an unseen, I doubt it will be implemented.

If there's an Assault being put in, I want the Daishi

Atlas might be best for taking the damage, but Daishi would be like the other side of the coin, it excels in dishing out the damage. I mean 99 damage? damn that's crazy.

Yeah not TOO far into the lore so don't know much about that (or at least have ALL the unseen ones memorized) But Mech Commander and MC2 had me loving most of the mechs (and yes, I did MC-2 last mission with all urbies once)

Daishi/Dire Wolf is a Clan 'Mech, buddy. You gotta wait.

Well all of them except the Zeus are unseen so while many are keeping their fingers crossed, it will be unlikely. The Lyran Commonwealth is short on mechs in the game so maybe the Zeus will make it in.

I believe everything but the Zeus is an unseen. I am indifferent to all of these mechs.

I believe Zeus has been thrown around as a likely candidate, but the other mechs seem like their roles are already filled by confirmed mech (e.g. the Archer is basically another Catapult)

I just dont like the whole "hands" look to allot of mechs, some can pull it off (Atlas) but others, just look kinda silly >.>

Totally for the Archer and Zeus. Love those mechs. I always thought the zeus was pretty beastly lookin.

just use the new renderings of the unseen. think what is needed is the type of mech the unseen filled. ( 20 ton scout , 55 ton work horse, ) just to start. i think they need to get all the 3025/2049 befor they hit us with the clans stuff .

I reckon the zeus will get in sooner or later. its competing with alot of the final assault slot but pretty sure it'll get released within the year. myself thinking of highlander and cyclops as sorta competitors but alot more assaults out there that could stake a timeline frame and purpose

i kinda doubt we'll see archer... because its role is basically filled with the catapult... but heh we'll see

The locust i'd be really surprised to see - we already got better armed and better electronically armed scouts. tough to see a plus with this one - honestly looking for the flea to fill the role this one could in a year or so.

shadowhawk... i just don't see it being the first unseen and its kinda comparable to a centurion i'd think

I'm all for all four of those, too bad three of them are currently Unseen.

Otherwise, I'm a big fan of all of them and the Locust is my #1 choice for a light mech to boot.

Need some ultralight JJ capable mechs.
