I was unable to find anything on the newest dev log and how there was a thanatos sitting there, does anybody know if we will be getting the thanatos or will it be another mech like the flea where we can see it but it is just there?

I think the Thanatos on their desk was a player submitted model that was 3D printed.

Thanatos has a 360 degree torso twist. 360 degree torso twisting mechs are overpowered for the game when they are not gimped like the urban mech due to being able to keep distance and fire at max speeds. Yeah, we can't have the Thanatos. It's too overpowered with it's hit boxes spreading damage everywhere, 360 degree torso twist letting it run away at max speed, and jump jets with top mounted hard points. Thanatos out classes too many IS heavy mechs. Just way too OP.

wtf duplicate thread much.

The Raven had a 360 torso twist as well... I say "BRING ON THE THANATOS!!!"

I'm cool with a non-canonical torso twist if I can play my favorite mech ever!

The Summoner and Mad Dog also had 360 torso twist in that game. (MW4 for those who are wondering) It was a Microsoft gimmick that should stay there along with Mech Assault

Thanatos is a 3061 mech according to Sarna, so we won't be seeing it for awhile (if we do). Not to mention it carries MRMs which are also not within timeline either.

Still though, 75t heavy with decent hardpoints, JJs and ECM? Me likey
