It's like a giant, robot M.O.D.O.K.

[Thorn Hallis]

The whole Microsoft (and later retconned) 'Mechs from MW4. Though I know some will make it to MWO sooner or later.

Akuma. I HATE IT'S FACE

Z'Gok... oh, I mean Karhu:

No-dachi. NO, NO, dachi, NO. Bad mech. Akuma face and a stupid sword

I agree about Hatamoto, and the Ost mechs. I left out quads because they are supposedly not coming anyway ever. Honestly, I could say the only mech with a medieval weapon I like is the Axman/Hatchetman. the rest look too "themed" for me.

I am not going to get into mechs I wouldn;t want because of loadouts because it would take a lot of explaining, and not just lulz pictures.

We can literally never be friends.

[Archangel.84]

I actually really like the Hatamoto for exactly the reasons Bishop doesn't, considering the lore around it.

And the Imp - it's like the Urbie's giant redneck brother!


The Mk.II is one I actively dislike, not even talking about forum drama. And several WOB mechs (Blue and White Flame making quads laughably ugly, the Celestial abominations). Totem mechs in general can be fun (Thunder Stallion and Balius yay!), but the Falcons went wayyyyyyy into crazyshittown with some of the Dark Age-era designs.

I think you have a serious problem, and you need to stop posting for a while.

[Kiiyor]

And lo, Kiiyor did call down much wrath and forum anger upon himself when he revealed the mech he least wished to see stomp upon the hallowed grounds of MWO:

Veily, the skies themselves seemed angered after he clicked 'post' as dark, broiling clouds quickly hid the sun, and a tremendous crack of thunder seemed to split the earth itself as thunderous voice boomed angrily from the heavens:

'FORM NOT A HASTY JUDGEMENT OF THE STOMPY ROBOT, KIIYOR, UNTIL THOU HAST BEHELD IT UPON THE BATTLEFIELD. MANY HATH PROFESSED THEIR LOVE FOR THIS IRON BEAST, FROM BOTH TABLETOP AND GAMES OF YORE, AND I MYSELF AM NOT IMPARTIAL TO IT'S AWESOMENESS'

And Kiiyor was humbled, but felt as though he should stick to his guns:

'But lord, though I myself adore the machine, has thou not beheldeth the design of this abomination? In ye olde tabletop and many of the ye olde games, performance is based on loadout, whereas the physical design of machines in MWO has the greatest impact on overall effectiveness! And Indeed, the design of the Asp has meta heaped upon meta all wrapped in meta-fibrous meta-armour, with aged Gouda cheese flowing through it's veins and being cast forth from it's astoundingly well placed guns! I fear that it would be negatively quirked to the lowest circle of hell to compensate for it's design advantages!'

And the lord was taken aback and said unto him

'HOLY CRAP, IN THE CONTEXT YE HAVE PROVIDED THAT THING DOES INDEED LOOK OVERPOWERED AS BALLS'

it's not how many big guns you can fit in it, but in addition you can put some 12 MGs to it... which means MG can never be balanced to be a useful weapon in small numbers without adding some ghostMGexponential heat

Not sure your original statement was going for however I can talk about the MG ballance state.

Currently it has a cone of fire.

How about 1 MG basically has nearly no spread, and than the more MG's you got the slightly more it spreads?

and in MW4 it was indeed excellent, right up until the moment Mektek inserted the Canis. Now THAT was an OP sniper

If you take this stuff that seriously, perhaps it's you who needs a time out. Seriously, grow a sense of humor. David Bowie would not approve.

The original was "Only at bar time and with a bottle of cheap Whisky" fugly... The redone version is only a six-pack and a shot fugly.

[EGG]

How can people talk down the Imp?

If/when it gets here I'm going to paint it like an egg and drive the heck out of it. Possibly bully urbanmechs in playgrounds on River City also.




Edit- this is future me having a laser/missile party in my Imp.

You know how there's King Crabs and little bro Crabs?

Imps and Urbanmechs.

I'd vote to never add the Mad Cat 2. Just because i couldn't get my Flea.

[Wild Pegasus]

I could do without seeing this thing.



Judging by its Sarna profile, the Baboon is basically just a Catapult but as a light Clan 'mech. There's a even a version that replaces the pizza boxes LRM-5's with an ERPPC, so it has it's own tiny K2 variant. Any of you Clan players want a smaller, more fragile, less capable and sillier looking Catapult?

So Clan 20-tonner is smaller and more fragile than IS 65-tonner? What a surprise.
