Wow, that looks so much better!
Like, really menacing looking.

Tweet it to Russ or something! (might be easier to change than the whole head being squished)

Actually several of us tweeted Russ, he said he'd look into it. The only chance of getting changes is to 'ask nicely' before the thing releases so they have the chance to make the changes now and not after it would take them even MORE work.

You really think it's gonna change? I reckon he's just giving you a nice uh-huh nod. PGI are notoriously stubborn unless it hits their bottom line. I bet that what we see now is exactly what we'll get.

In truth, wish you had asked him.

Then we could say "it was all for Naught"

Not trying to diminish anyone's achievements, but it's funny to see Tier 3 players running their mouth over the test account being Tier 5 on the first few pages. In his streams he is actually upper Tier 3 on the live server and possibly a better player than you'll ever be. On the debug build that is shown there every account is actually Tier 5.

Edit: On topic:

These arms are a bit... weird. So is the cockpit (it needs some flattening!).

But otherwise pretty nice, looking forward to taking it out for a spin.

I find it funny seeing anyone base almost anything off a bloody XP bar.
I have played less than half my normal number of matches for the year, play "bad builds" on purpose (meta is boring), started just above tier 4 because of lack of games...and am one good weekend away from hitting 2.

As long as your W/L is positive, and your KDr mostly positive..... your Tier trends upward. How fast of course depends on number of games, and quality does get you there faster (as does organized team play, as you are less likely to lose, and winner always go up).

As epeen badges go, MWO tiers are pretty uninspiring.

Ah yes... the old "Tier X makes you worth more" BS again. Do you seriously think that way???

btw.... I'm Elite T3 Winnah that earned the chikkin dinnah in less than 27.2 hours **cue the "Can't Touch This" music**.

Dont have account on twitter/facebook. Anyone who has - you are welcome to do it in a name of all mech pilots.

Wish the modelers followed the concept more closely...

well.... after clan wave 1, i learned not to expect much from the models (the problem is alex sets the standard too high)

well if the modellers can't inset the cockpit like the art work, should they be doing the job that is the one part that makes it look like they paid lip service to alex work

Like others have said, the mechs would look better powered down in the mech bay. It would make more sense of course to. The concept art shows the Warhammer at least partially powered down.

CAPITAL IDEA! we should be able to see our mech powered down AND powered up in the mechlab.

I thought this was settled. The Clans used their cloning technology to clone Natasha and use her clone as a weapon to help defeat the Inner Sphere. The real Natasha is in cryogenic sleep on a ship in space somewhere or crash landed on a planet or in a clan prison.

Think about it. Would the most famous Inner Sphere mercenary really turn on her own allies and friends? The Wolf's Dragoon's were given an entire planet if I remember correctly.

Difference is there is no relationship between a Marauder and a King Crab. The Hellbringer is the Clans Omni descendant of the Warhammer.


Actually, the arms are almost identical to the concept art. Angle matters.

Dammit man, why do your posts make sense xD
Swear I have to hold off like pushes half the time in case I'm liking your posts, again. The arms do in fact look accurate to the concept art, though I'm split on the head location myself.

Nice guys we did it! Tweet
