Honestly?

Stinger/Wasp
Bushwacker
Devastator
Piranha
Cougar
Coyotl
Stone Rhino

All of those would get me to consider spending more money here.

I see there are no rules to this so... I suppose after I get my Linebacker (yay), I'm most interested in the Assassin.

The Assassin will completely cap off my early Battletech nostalgia tour. Any mech after that might be a hard sell for me.

After that, who knows. I suppose PGI can try to drudge up fond memories of MW4 with some later-timeline goodies. Uziel, maybe?

All my favorite 'mechs are already in the game, with the exception of the Javelin. It's also the only 'mech on my list that actually brings anything really different to the game, the others are mostly redundant but (IMO) cooler looking than the current choices.

Javelin
Firefly
Lancelot
Crusader
Guillotine
Thug
Shogun

I don't really expect to see any of them actually added though, except maybe the Crusader -- the unseens sell well, don't they?

Nova Cat was my fav from lore and will likely be the last mechpack I'd drop $$$ for.

Was already a badass looking mech (which was an exception for FASA who's designs for the most part left a bit to be desired). Just imagine what it'd look like with an Alex makeover! Posted Image

Most Mechs. Hardpoint inflation, agility quirks, engine cap exceptions, and myriad other factors can make almost any Mech awesome. It's up to PGI to decide whether or not to make them sub-par to begin with... however if new Mechs always meet or beat par, then you have Power Creep...

Only a fully functional LAM that would have a toggle-able mode between land and air mode the same way you open cat doors,krab claws, etc. With 87 mechs already only the lam would really get my interest back into mechs.

http://www.sarna.net/wiki/Land_Air_'Mech

With all the limitations they have they would take as much skill or more than a locust:

"LAMs cannot exceed a total mass of 55 tons and thanks to the complexity of their conversion equipment cannot be constructed using Endo Steel, Ferro-Fibrous, any form of advanced engine technology such as XL Engines, [2] nor can they built to use OmniMech or OmniFighter technology."

All the ones I would have mentioned came up in the first 3 responses.

Crusader
Charger
Javelin

I'd like the bushwhacker but we're kinda far out for it.

P.S.

Dervish

Honestly... As much as I deny it, any mech essentially. I'm a glutton for punishment apparently. Posted Image

Bushwacker and Blood Asp are the two that I would be excited to see.

I'm fairly ambivalent to all else. Nova Cat is a distant third. What else? Cougar (would honestly be redundant to the adder for all intents and purposes as far as MWO is concerned.) Uziel? Anubis?

Eh.

The Phoenix Hawk. A Phoenix Hawk that has arms that don't fall off when you glance at them. I'd pay (again :( ) for that. Maybe one that has arms at least as tough as a Panther.
