Sadly, I am not excited. With all the issues, lack of new content and an unpopular rebalance about to be implemented; I will have to pass. I anxiously await the cbill release.

[Kael Posavatz]

So, we can't have a Timberwolf Hero because PGI doesn't have enough people to do a skin for it...but we can have Rifleman!

Rifleman comes with full suite of skins, including these custom 'reseen' skins (which I really do think are sharp even if I have not spent real money on them) and a hero skin.

gg PGI. GG.

[ChapeL]

It the risk of being branded Heretic, should the Phoenix Hawk make an appearance, I would prefer it be inspired by the reseen version of the design rather than the original.

Can we possibly STOP GETTING HEAVY MECHS!? On account of the heavy que being commonly in the neighborhood of 45-50% if not more after the mad cat was released and the is heaves (thunderbolt looking at you) got amazing quirks. So maybe give me one of these;

http://www.sarna.net/wiki/Valkyrie
http://www.sarna.net/wiki/Wasp
http://www.sarna.net..._Owl_(Peregrine)
http://www.sarna.net..._Eagle_(Goshawk)

Lights and mediums, not heavies.

EDIT;
Fogrot to mention that basically everything needs a fix in one way shape or form,

• pug matches always turn into tdm regardless of objective
  
• CW is...eww
  
• firestarters and arctic cheetahs that only exist to make everyone cry
  
• energy boating.....

yay, great design on the Rifleman....

Now, how about fixing more sutff in the game than give us more mechs and a wallpaper with the Legend-Killer like this?

Also how about starting to get us more wallpapers as well?

Sooo, the Firebrand is for sale again. and soon to be for c-bills. Glad I purchased it.

You need more then just the sandbox, and lop-sided galactic sandbox now to get more from me.

[Cranky Puppy]

mehh....phoenix hawk would e be a better choice.....even the Crusader Mech would be good....

I will most likely PASS ON THINS ONE....just because i have Jagermechs and BlackJack

16 WEAPON ATLAS IS NEEDED.

GAME CONTENT....fix UNIT Coffers and make them useful in GAME

[Unnatural Growth]

Not interested in a Rifleman, since we have Jagermechs.

And my wallet is slammed shut again until this stupid azz'd game mode voting is taken out.

Honestly PGI, the way you keep repeating the same mistakes... well, it really makes me question your sanity.

[SoulReaver7500]

Not buying anything until we get back out mode selection.

You will be mine.

[PraetorGix]

I stopped spending money on this game a couple months ago and this is not changing my policy.
NO MORE MONEY UNTIL YOU ADD ACTUAL CONTENT TO USE ALL THESE MECHS IN.
Also, what's next? They gonna sell each variant of a chassis separately and charge 10 bucks for each?

[Smoked]

I really wanted to stop buying crap from PGI but damn couldn't pass up this iconic mech with a revamped look.

[Racersky]

How about some content? I would rather spend $ on content instead of another mech that will get:
1. quirks
2.de-quirked
3. negative quirked
4.awesome hitbox issues
5.adjusted hitbox
I think I have purchased just about every package (Except for the GOLD MECHS) to "help" out with the Financial side of mwo HOPING for some real content. Gonna have to pass on future purchases until some content is added...

[Arkhangel]

In case someone hasn't mentioned it already, the Rifleman's got one main plus over the Jager. Energy weapons sidecarred to the ballistics on the arms. only a Firebrand has that for Jagers.

Additionally, a Rifleman's likely to have a better Torso Twist... so it's not really a "Niche" buy compared to the Jager. It's just a mech with a similar loadout that did the same jobs.

also, for all the people whining about more content and such.. first of all, this is cash paying salaries and to FUND said new content's development, AND they said they're working full steam on CW and the Quirks testing right now. if you don't want it, don't by it, but don't whine for new content, and be glad we got another Unseen.

Also, again, bear in mind the people developing the mech art and models are NOT THE LEVEL DESIGNERS, OR THE GAME MODE MAKERS. It's a lot easier to get a mech out than it is to make an entirely new level from scratch, plus they're still trying to update the older maps up to par.

so just be patient, and buy or not if you want to. not like they won't all be out for C-bills eventually anyways.

Nice PGI, BUT THIS ISN'T THE RIFLEMAN I WANTED!



GIVE US THAT ONE PLEASE. WE STILL NEED OUR HIGH MOUNTED CLAN MECH WEAPONRY (I'll probably end up getting the IS rifleman when the c-bill version is out).

I'm crossing my fingers for sometime next year, PGI releases a clan IIC wave 2 pack with the Warhammer, Marauder, and Rifleman IIC included. I really don't think we need more IS mechs for the time being.

Ohhh look what do you know - yet another IS mech up for purchase.....really PGI... makes me sick

[Berean03]

Or $60 for the 3 most iconic IS heavy mechs ever and a lot of extra stuff - that's a very good deal, specially if you consider the Clan omnimechs cost $55 each (a la carte).

Archer should be released next as standalone (with Morgan Kell's ECM hero), and then: Project Phoenix II:
- light: Wasp
- medium: Phoenix Hawk
- heavy: Crusader
- assault: Longbow
[reinforcements]: Stinger and Valkyrie

PGI please...this.

[Skexy]

Hrm...have to think about this one.......mostly rifleman looks like a weaker version of its replacement the Jager.......but any chance we get arms that go all the way around as they traditionally do? Not sure how it would work out; but would definitely make this classic mech unique.

It would, theoretically, have a 360 torso like the Urbie... I PMed Tina and asked if she could find out for me... cuz.... I don't have Twitter... If we get enough people to poke, maybe it will happen

I'll buy it if it gets the 360... I'll wait for Cbills if it doesn't...

Would have been nice to see the Crusader but I guess I will have to wait a bit longer....

Probably not too long, at this rate it's only several months down the road. I predict in the upcoming months we may see the Crusader and Archer.
