? wat?

Regardless, if we get the Kingfisher I hope PGI uses the top cockpit.


Oh the tears. "B...but now my guns are BELOW my cockpit!"

Though I suppose the alternative is "B...but they can see me before I see them!"

Well those shoulder points are barely below that cockpit. I would rather have the higher cockpit, it minimizes the amount of exposure, and PGI should take every avenue to help this mech due to its limited podspace, in my opinion. That's the beauty of this mech, they can buff it without having to worry about P2W.

For those saying the Cougar would suck let me say this....
Cougar Alt. Config. C
A configuration that has more of a mixture of long- and short-range weapons, the C is built around a single Gauss Rifle. It is complemented by five ER Medium Lasers that allow the Cougar C to stay on the field for a long time..

If it has the much pod space and tonnage free.....mix in a decent speed (not great I know) of 86 KPH and Jump Jets....this thing doesn't loo to bad at all!

The Cougar would suck due to its speed. Name a slow light mech that's used competitively outside of niche or experimental roles and then I will point out the Cougar is even slower.

Well the Cougar in a traditional light roll yes your right would not fit well, but it isn't a slouch, it is far better then the boom chicken atleast! Adder is the closest I can think f but even that has no JJ's right? Cougar loses some speed and armor for the addition of JJ and lots of fire power.

The Cougar doesn't have jump jets except for a jihad era variant.

MW4 lied to you. It lied to us all.

In before "BUT THEY PUT THE SHADOWCAT P IN".

No. Even with jumpjets it would still die quicker than mechwarrior tactics.

Grizzly has one problem: not enough variants. And with the Grizzly Summoner will be completely useless but that's a omni-mech problem.
