Better have someone who knows how to use the 8 jump jets as well as it's high speed, otherwise target practice.
At 30 tons and only 3 tons of FF armor, a single Gauss or PPC shot will strip off the armor and hit internals anywhere, and 2 is almost guaranteed to down the mech.

Tell me they are equipping this one with an ejection seat. I don't know why but I remember them as being sans ejection seats...

Yeah, speedy mech and great jump capacity, but otherwise a fast-moving coffin. The weapons are a joke. The original has no targeting or TAG gear, so it's usefulness as a scout/spotter is limited. Maybe this version will have that gear, or it's equivalent. Ought to be a lot of fun in one-on-one duels, tho. The right pilot and situation could really put it's speed to good use.

Looking forward to my chance to learn to dance the spider waltz. Still waiting for beta invite. Got invites from other games but the one I want the most alludes me still.

Dude, there are no Mackies still known to exist. Even the Clans don't have any. Kerensky took all remaining Mackies into exile with him and they have either been destroyed or used for spares. Even Comstar and later the Word of Blake did not have the technology or knowledge to create more.

i agree, got a beta for The Secret War, which i didn't really care much about (or was impressed with for that matter) but not MWO which I do care about and plan to play a lot.
