I just knew they would start using the Weapon Bay Door button for general-purpose Mech functions...

Any new Mech they make can have something "happen" with the weapon bay door button if they wanted to...

I love it. I genuinely hope that as any mechs that can reasonably have a "special" function get one.

Now if only we could get it to do this:

Admit it, we all have met people in-game that we'd gladly do this to.

Completely seriously, I would pay $20 right now to secure the ability to do that.

And I'd use it every single day.

That's ok with me. In fact, that's the goal.

Wolverine fingering you is kinda cool. But Mr. Bean? When Mr. Bean can mock you, you're hit rock bottom.

As I've said previously, I'd prefer my Kodiak be bright pink with a white Care Bear belly. That would make the whole effect better.

If my gigantic, hot pink Care Bear Kodiak could finger the Badass Camo'd smoking wrecks of his foes as I stomp through their ruins... well, that would be the best day ever.



Edit: See, this is the thing. I would prefer to be Mr. Bean in the video above, gleefully fingering the world, as he hops, skips and jumps over Wolverine's smoking corpse, than to be Wolverine above.

But that's just me =)

you and me both. In fact, if I could get a Mr Bean "blowing a raspberry" warhorn to go with it all?

Another pointless feature with no melee in game.
Useless as t i t s on a man.

Quoting and liking my own post, because I just can't like yours enough.

I'm sad that you can't enjoy these things we enjoy so much. Ah well, what can you do?

You know what else is pointless? Anthropomorphic walking combat vehicles. They would be huge targets, top-heavy, and grossly expensive. They should be removed, too, and replaced with nice sensible tanks.

Hardly. I love this game - the ONLY PvP game I enjoy at all - because rule of cool is more important to me than anything else in the game. Because I love battletech, and because I love things like this. Small things; those little touches. These things make me happy. No sense in hating on awesome stuff just because you're sad about something else.


I long ago learned that the key to happiness in life is accepting what you can't change, and finding joy where you can. *shrugs* There's nothing to be gained by wallowing in salt.

All seriousness, I would drive the hell out of a tank in MWO if they had the big ones like the Demolisher or the Partisan.
