Surprised there isn't a topic for this yet, but it looks like a nice opposite to Frozen City.

We get to see an Awesome, and more PPC fire, along with badass flamers at the end.

I love the end part.

And now, here to add insult to injury, is jimmy. Jimmy is piloting his flamethrower laden hunchback he has dubbed the flaming R-K311Y

You will have to work for that one but its worth it.

Because most of them arent discussing it, its more like Oh cool, or FIRST, for the next 20 pages.

I think that some folks don't realize the comments on announcements actually are a forum thread themselves. This seems to happen pretty regularly... perhaps just merge the threads?

Riffleman is correct, but even more importantly, a huge chunk of the population isn't smart enough to look at the stickies, so they damn sure aren't smart enough to look in other forums.

Eh, I thought the pulse lasers would blink. They just seem like regular lasers that stay on target longer. Of course, also, the guy had Large Lasers firing ontop of them, so maybe the line of sight made it look like that?

FIrst official video Ihave seen slow it down to get a good look at the mechs. I really like the look of the catapult, although I like the missile version better it looked smooth. and when he killed it and it rolled down hill ragdolling it looked pretty convincing for a machine.

Yeah, that was pretty sweet. I liked how they toned down the glow effects as well, and how you can shoot fallen limbs away :huh:

I wonder if they'll add in HUD distortions when Mechs overheat though, currently it looks like the screen only distorts and go red when you shutdown from overheating.

Oddly enough showing PPC fire on the map and then telling us it's prone to making you over heat.... doesn't seem to add up.

And with this map the argument that "lasers are overpowered" and "ballistics are weak" dies a horrible and silent death.

The glow has definitely been turned down. Wonder how much of that was beta feedback and how much (if any) was the rabid slobbering about it on here recently.

That Centurion arm made me lol. I would have had to yell "Fore" on vent when it went flying.

I guess they wanted to show off the Awesome as well.
