I heard a while back that they will add a weapon module for TAG called "Improved TAG module". Description is rumored to say "Upgrades TAG laser to use line of red plasma instead of line of red light. Knocks down lighter mechs and deals heavy damage at the cost of 5 MC per second."

Just use that on an Atlas or a Dire and imagine it is year 2002 again.

On topic, the lava gun is a type of plasma rifle. We won't be seeing this gun anytime soon, (shame, it is pretty awesome) therefore no Ragnarok.

BY IGNORING THIS MECH PGI IGNORES THE ENTIRE MECHCOMMANDER 2 CROWD. IT WAS A HUGE HIT ON THE XBOX 360 AND IS TIMELINE LEGAL BECAUSE IT WAS DESIGNED BY THE WORD OF BLAKE IN 2640 BEFORE THE FALL OF THE SECOND STAR LEAGUE.


Mechcommander (the Strategic Game) 2 of the Xbox 360???? you meen the crapy Mechassault ???for Xbox

MechAssault 1 and 2 were some of the most fun departures from canon Battletech as far as I'm concerned. Had a lot more fun (and friendly) experiences with them than I can say for MWO.

True, Mechassault kept my MW fires burining back when all I could afford was a potato with 256MB RAM....

Ah yes, the tracking ppc's. It's all starting to come back to me now.


Yea
But ppcs in mechassaut2 were more usefull when you didnt get a lock on target and basically shoot before ennemy lock was avaiable and also before see the ennemy..
Lots of good pilots did use it as suppress fire agaisnt ennemies Posted Image ( in opposite lots of bads pilots took thoses supress fire directly in CT ).

Pros:
And well mechassaut2 was the last BT video game where you can kill someone by using JJ also death from above. Posted Image
Hammer gun was cool too^^
Kill a 100 tons mech with a elemental armor or stole main ennemy mech, damn cool too.
Dodging alpha strike ( in timberwolf specially ) by shut down his mech at very last moment before tracking alpha strike was unleash was damn awesome too xD


Cons:
But ragnarock wasnt cool at all...


Mechassaut2 wasnt the perfect BT game but was a really cool BT game specially for console audience. Chromehound was interesting too but not enough variety.

I got into MW with MW1/2 on my potato W95 but after it got too slow and old we couldn't afford a new PC, around that time in 2001 I got an xbox for xmas and mechassault came with it. Best fun I ever had at that time.

I want novacat, uziel, night gyr. Please.

No friend MechCommander-2 was a tactical turn based game that was awesome to play and MechAssault was not crappy it was a great game with good looking mechs so was MechAssault2 Lone Wolf.

Build the Rag with current tech and submit to PGI. Speculate additional variants that also fit within our tech limitations too.

Now that russ says he will change stock loadouts (strip out future tech like heavy lasers) to get mechs in sooner, the blood asp is actually a likely candidate for a clan assault mech. Just dont expect any giant metal claw PPCs.



Probably not for a little bit though... we will likely see Mad Cat MK. II before the Blood Asp.

If the next clan assault is a battlemech yes. If they do a four mech pack, they usually do omnimechs, therefore blood asp, the next good clan omni, is in line, because the kingfisher and the turkina are both gross missteps if those are the mechs they end up adding.

If we do get the Kingfisher I challenge you to a Trial of Grievance against your BNC-3M.

TV mechs aside, Hawken was a damn fine looking game. Sound design was awesome too.

Actually, it is from MechAssault 2, not MechCommander 2. Supposed to have also been in the SNES version of MechWarrior. Never played either.

Lava Gun and Energy Shield, Posted Image .

Zero variants, Posted Image .

Well, at least it is not a usual MWO fight thread.
