I don't care what you think.

Nova-U
[color=#000000]8 MGs[/color]
3 heavy ML can be ML
3 micro pulse laser can be SL
Light active probe becomes cap
ECM

and the most important of all

a mother-effing sword.

BOTH 3 Energy Arms(Heavy & Mirco Lasers are not yet in MWO)
MY GOD THE SWORD!!!(Also Sadly not in MWO at this Time) :(

SMN-F; This version of the Summoner carries an Ultra AC/5 and ER Medium Laser in each arm, backed up by a torso mounted LRM-10 and ER Medium Laser.

SMN-G; This variant is most adept sniping at long range, then dashing in to finish off its foe. The long-range punch comes from an ER PPC and an ER Large Laser, each of which is capable of opening holes in an enemy's armor. To exploit those holes, the Summoner G carries six SRM-4s and a heavy small laser

and of course the SMN-M; The preferred configuration of Nicolai Malthus, the M configuration is similar to the primary configuration in that it has an ER PPC as its primary weapon backed up by an LB 10-X Autocannon. Where it deviates is that for close combat the M configuration of the Summoner has a Streak SRM-6 and an ER Small Laser as secondary weapons.

Or, PGI can just add their own (P) variants with different hardpoints, and endlessly bask in the adoration of "more variants please" crowd and swim in their cash. ;)

There is nothing barring PGI from doing that, aside from their own imagination. Want ECM Mauler, or 3-4 ballistic hardpoint Stalker? Go ahead and make some, I'm sure the crowd will buy em up.

Yes to more Variants!
Would pay for a couple more Vindicators and Summoners, Nova's with missile hard points.
The Phoenix Hawk looks good and all, but would rather spend more time with the chassis I already have.
The Variants with future tech just drop in current weapon systems and when the timeline moves forward have a sale on Special Variants with the new tech fitted instead. Easy way to get double the money for the same mechs.

I'd be happy with Omnipods only for clanmechs:
Warhawk F RT (1B)
Warhawk T RT (1E)
Warhawk H RA (2E 1M)

For IS I'd like to see BNC-5S, DRG-1G
also, Hero Crab and KingCrabs

This is actually very true, and its not like they actually care all that much about the lore.

And the only thing that would have me purchase mechs again before the game gets developed out is more Commando and other original line variants. Wouldn't even be all that much work since their texture updates is basically just flattening weapons and putting an interchangeable sticker over the top.

There's a huge problem with the MLX-F, though. It's not a MLX-P.

You see, when PGI changes builds from lore or invents new variants, they call them "P" variant. The MLX-P is already a "P" variant, so PGI can do whatever they want with it and still call it the MLX-P. Posted Image

Long Story short:

Why isn't the Grand Dragon in this game?

The 3039 version, or the 3050 upgrade.

LCT-DAY1337

RA: AC20
RT: LRM10 1ton lrm ammo
CT: XL400 2ton ac20 ammo (348.2 kph)
Head: Tag
LT: LRM10 1ton lrm ammo
LA: 3x Medium Pulse Laser
RL: 1ton ac20 ammo, 1Jump jet
LL: 1ton LRM ammo, 1Jump jet


I kept the ammo low and no artemis for weight saving. Big engine cope with added weight. Flame painted on the side for speed. Various insult written on the back like "git gud" or ""y so slo"

Yes This... variants shmarients. Give Us Duels and an In Game Bar for chat and the Bush Wacker and Rear View Toggle and the other stuff we have been asking for for years.

I'm fine if they add ecm to "their" P variant, then.
Juicy backstabber, and also it would help to "protect" my tiny lynx...

Taken from my thread:

View PostQuicksilver Kalasa, on 24 February 2016 - 10:23 PM, said:

With the precedent the Kodiak has set, was wondering whether that opened the door for variants of existing mechs with out-of-timeline variants that had no future tech?

There are also a few mechs within timeline that could probably be available as well, like a certain Cataphract that was in the game files when it was released (CTF-3L).

While there are quite a few redundant variants, there were a few interesting variants I felt were worth mentioning.

TDR-7SE - JJs and ECM
AWS-9Q - ECM Awesome, not that it really helps it any, still a classic variant for the thing

These next IS variants are technically within the timeline.
BJ-2 - missile boat BJ, to further solidify the BJ as a great medium
CTF-3L - CTF-1X with MASC essentially
WVR-7M - The medium we should've gotten instead of the worthless 7D, it is a 6K with JJs and MASC essentially.
BNC-5S - Sort of like a mix of all 3 variants, and still better than the LM (8E/1B/1M minimum).
VTR-9A - Dual goose jump sniper, not that it would be good given how fragile the Victor is and the fact the goose are on opposite sides.
Grand Dragon - Honorable mention, not that it would be worth anything.

SMN F/G - F gives us 1B/1E arms and 1E right torso, G only has a heavy small which can be replaced, gives us a 1E CT and 3M side torsos
KFX W - 2E arms with LA/H on both sides, maybe Wub quirks for the almighty Wubfox
SCR-I - Adds nothing, but mentioning it still
HBR-F - 1B/1E arms, 1E right torso
WHK-F - Ballistic in right torso

In Timeline variants
SMN A - Gauss quirks?
KFX A/B - Gauss/UAC quirks?
ADR-C - NARC quirks I guess?
ACH-D - Adds nothing, but mentioning it still
EBJ-D - Extra energy hardpoint for right torso

Not saying more variants really helps some of the issues with this game, just putting this out there, partially because I want the TDR-7SE, AWS-9Q, and SMN-G.
