CDA-3F

The -3F Cicada is one of the most advanced versions of this 'Mech, it's upgrades based on combat reports from the front lines of the Clan Invasion, and was introduced in 3052.









MUH TIMELINE

[Speedy Plysitkos]

so maybe we skip today 2 years ?

[TELEFORCE]

This game was pushed up two years a few months ago. So no, we're at 3052 now, despite what the clock says. I'm pretty sure Russ said something about the jump to 3052 somewhere.

[MeiSooHaityu]

It's now 3052? Ok, so where is the freaking Bushwacker? Sheesh

They already said that they will release mechs through the 3055 timeline

40 tonns+8JJs! It will jump much better than the 45 ton+6JJ SHC!

[bad arcade kitty]

how about that banner 'tukkaid, never forget' marked with 3052 which most of us have?

[Otto Cannon]

You're kidding yourself if you think that timeline is ever going to mean something at this stage.

We could get the BSW-X1, BSW-X2 and BSW-S2.
BSW-L1 and BSW-S2r use weapons developed in 3058 and 3068.

It was moving 88 miles an hour. These things happen.

[Robot Kenshiro]

They should really take that clock down. No one is gonna wait for a 1:1 timeline for mechs. I'm glad Russ said they'd be doing year jumps to progress the game. Can you imagine waiting 10 - 20 yrs just to get the juicy weapons and mechs? The idea was a good thought at the time but in reality it's just not doable and these timeline changes should happen alot more frequent to help change pace of the game play. Mounting the same weapons over and over makes the variety very lacking. And having more updated weapons would solve alot of weapon balancing issues I reckon. Gives ppl more choice of what to mount. Unless they gimp the weapons on release then yea we're in for some hair raising times. I'm looking forward for some light ppc. Light gauss. Heavy laser x pulse mrms racs and so on and so on. Can you imagine the load outs then? Ppl be boating srm and mrms light ppc and ppc. Light and heavy gauss.etc. fun times.

I'd rather fix current weapons for balance, which they failed to do before Clams arrived. Have 3 levels of unbalanced tech wouldn't be great. Legacy Tech and all.

If we could get this made perfectly clear it could eliminate a whole bunch of fan boy BS. After that could we officially pronounce stock mechs the worst possible way to equip a mech period.

Yep, and also cda can be faster too!

[Thorqemada]

I do want my "Centurion from the Future" with Clantech and Jumpjets!

Who cares about the timeline? Its not like the game has a story or something, so really, what does it matter? It only artificially restricts the mechs and weapons we can have with literally no point.

I agree somewhat, they keep retconning the time anyway which just makes it useless. Give us the Bushwacker plox.
