Uhm....why PGI? WHY?!


why did you give this thing a twistable torso? its not supposed to have one......give it a better turn rate instead...make it unique...like the Nova should have been...

and uhh...last time I checked, this was an OMNIMECH

THE 1ST INNERSPHERE OMNIMECH

so why does the sales page indicate that it's not?

Clanners got regular mechs in those 2C deals....so the IS getting an omni chassis clearly isn't OMFG OP

gemme my omni if you want my money

[Isaac Steiner-Davion]

Lol, this was not, nor the first omnimech ever... please research your info.

[TexAce]

why do you think omnis would be better for IS?

Its not like you will get clan XL engines with it.

[Heveric]

Well... I don't mind the torso twisting since my first time seeing the Bushwacker was in MechWarrior 3...

But we're getting a normal run of the mill Medium Battlemech instead of what the Bushwacker was built to be, which is a OmniMech?

Riii-iight... *rolls eyes*

[JaidenHaze]

Stop talking nonsense.

The Bushwacker was NEVER a OmniMech. They had problems with the development and with the help of salvaged OmniMechs, namely the Mad Dog, they could fix it.

At least try harder and read on Sarna before posting something like this

It always had a torso.
It NEVER was an omnimech.

I'm really not sure if OP is a very bad troll or just an idiot.

[Isaac Steiner-Davion]

OP was prolly thinking about the Avatar, which is an Omnimech, which is based off the Mad Dog.

Well it doesn't have one in TT if you use quirks. But that's one of those quirks I ignore.

The Nova wasn't supposed to have a torso twist, either, but PGI couldn't figure that one out. Welcome to the "new and improved" BT universe.

I'm hoping it'll be just as much of a deathtrap as the Mad Dog is....which would make sense, since it required captured Mad Dogs to make it work.

Im not an idiot, I just own the original frigging lead/rallidium minitature of the mech, and the TRO it 1st came out in...not whatever retconned garbage that came later in the pc games. So I DO know what its supposed to look like...heck the figurine was so poorly balanced it liked to flop over on 1 side all the dang time unless you glued a steel pin support on its rump to help hold it up because some funny guy at the fig factory decided to mold it in 'mid stride'


as for why I want it to be an omni mech? merely because it WAS one...no more no less...as far as omni mechs go? it was a pretty sub par performing one on tabletop...very undergunned for the tonnage to what it was expected to have to fight.


but thankyou for calling me a troll and an idiot...the internet and anonymity is no excuse for bad tact and language.

It's not an Omnimech!

[Isaac Steiner-Davion]

Dude, get your facts straight, it's not an Omnimech, please tell me where does it say it is? TRO 3058, please read, let me what you find and please... no more ignorance.

Basically you've entered a forum full of people who were either bullied in high school, had a lot of siblings, or hung out with nerds for most of their life (or a combination of some of these). These people will not only physiologically need to correct you, they will call you stupid for being wrong.

How you choose to deal with it is up to you.

I have to point out I think you're wrong.

Why on earth would people ask for mechs to be implemented without torso twist????? all that would do is make the mech completely unplayable. Being completely unable to move laterally to your target would make a mech useless.

If you want to test how utterly horrible it would be, go into controls and unbind X axis torso movement from the mouse. Drop into a match and see how well you do being unable to laterally twist your torso.

Its not even accurate for this mech anyway, but there is simply no point for PGI to release an unusable mech.

I would.
When it comes to Quadrupeds.

But at least they'd have something to compensate for it with their ability to move laterally, increased turning-rate, etc.
Torso-less bipeds are just... Dumb.
Don't do it.
