I'm on the fence on this one being that it has nothing special (masc,ecm,etc) for most of the mech unlike the Cyclops being a command mech getting the +150% sensor range but what I do love about this mech is the nice left torso high point so you can poke over hills having a low profile.

Also the point that this will be a zombie mech as well with the energy hard points in the center torso, I do see some nice dakka builds with this and would be a nice mech for Scouting being under 55 Tons.

I also do see that they changed the modules you get with a normal purchase and replaced them with deckils(russ) and I think the card will be one exclusive to the mech but the dice are normal but saves you about 680 MC from purchasing the card(if available) and the dice.

Still on the fence but seems ok not knowing about the quirks and with the history of the Inner Sphere Collection quirks being so bad I dont have much hope that it will be any better.

Here is my Pre-view of the Bushwacker

I love that the hero mech has the same paint scheme as the old toy, which I still own. I don't know if it's really worth it or not, but I bought the "I want it all pack" purely for the nostalgia. Looks like it could have decent hitboxes. It also brings back memories of the first mech you start with in the campaign for mechwarrior 3.

Nice.
Maybe spending less time on speaking out what everyone has already read would be good, instead using the time on you own thoughts.

Also:
  • I doubt very much the special BSW hanging items will be the same as the generic PO bonus knuckles.</li>
  • "Reinforcements have nothing special besides hardpoints" - well, we don't know anything else about them! Quirks are yet to come, and 6 missile slots are at least quite special.

They are, I mean you waste too much time on the other part. Could be more compact.
If you didn't link it here for feedback, why then? I hope not only for promotion, because this would be, like, advertising. ;)

I have no problem with feedback I guess I didnt understand what you were saying..So could have been less me talking and just give the facts then?

People ask my thoughts on the mechs that come out on a pre-view and then I make some builds when the mech does come out and thats why I give my thoughts on the videos...

No, the other way around. ^^Less obvious facts and more original thoughts/opinion/argumentation. Or just less obvious facts.

Another IS medium. My wallet still feels the PHX burn. The Kodiak however, I bought after it was released, same with the Whammy. The preorder has no interest without modules that I probably have a few of. And modules are looking at a nerf so I get to keep my hard earned CBills. Only thing I have to say is wait for the OP mechs and buy the 60 days of premium time.

Quirks will make or break the mech, just like all the other mechs. No way to tell until it is released as PGI will not share the quirk info until then.
