With all 12 starter mech's now known would it be possible to add a list of "HOUSE MECH's" to the FACTION PAGE?

[Adrienne Vorton]

hm, since they said something like "and yet MORE MECHS (plural) to come..." last week, i´m not sure if the Stalker was the last one... but we will see...

generally i second the OP´s request

yea it be nice to see if there was a faction only mech. but if not then maybe a faction only varient. As in only this faction can have this type of varient but all other varents can be use by any other faction.

I'm thinking 20 starter 'mechs. 5 for each class, 1 for each house.

I do not think so any house faction, merc corp or lone wolf could have any mech in game.

The Raven was first built by the Capellan Confederation
EXAMPLE (WAG on my part)
Raven Cost 5,701,725 C-bills but your a member of HOUSE LIAO so you can buy it for 4M and repair it for less then other house factions, merc corp or lw.

There aren't any house-specific mechs, any player can have any mech (different houses may have different prices but all mechs are available)

Awww thats no fun. Other then Role playing reason/ pretty banner and cheaper repairs, what would be the point of joining a house? Having my set list of lance Mates and a few extras when they aint on would fill any social gap. Oh well, at least cool colors will be in my future.

didn't they say somewhere that they will start the game with like 10 mechs and add the rest of them over time?!

the artwork is not an actual indicator for what will will be available right at the beginning.

Why, would they only release 10 initially when we already know about 15 of them now?

Because even after they tell us a mech will be included, there's a huge amount of work to actually put each one into the game so you can use it.

There are no faction 'Mechs in MWO, at least for now.

no faction only mechs.

Perhaps faction mechs that can be bought with MC only with a visual difference, but when you put different loadouts and hard points in the mix, people get antsy.

Well hopefully at some point after release there will be a Encyclopedia button on the webpage that shows you all the mechs and information of them & components, along with some small screenshots.
