Awesome design, I love it.

But never liked this Mech. You have a real hand in picking Mechs, which I absolutely like and absolutely dislike. Furthermore, by chance (mainly) the heavy Mechs I like and the light Mechs I dislike ;-)
And I like light Mechs, before someone quotes something different.

I was kind of expecting the spider like in mechwarrior 2: lone wolf, that shoots out the plasma from its mouth!!

This bit reminds me of a friend who would do the same with his panther Mech totally owned my Archer too many times with tactics like this. :D

This is Mechwarrior 2:



The game you're reffering to is Mechassault 2. And the game made up many stupidities to make it more appealing to the console demographic. Lava cannons, Ragnarok, the Spider you talked about, final boss, Timber Wolf and Mad Cat being 2 different mechs are all non-existent in the real Mecchwarrior. ;)

Are you sure? For all I know, Atlas couldn't hit that thing no matter how hard you tried.

These re-interpretations of the old mechs are, bar none, superior to pretty much anything I've ever seen in or outside of a TRO. Every single mech so far has looked 100% badass -- even mechs that I never really liked that much -- all while staying absolutely true to the spirit of the original designs.

You should never judge a mech by the size of its cockpit! :P

This will be the first light mech I actually like the looks of except the commando, but commando is nerfed by not having JJ in my opinion...spider has them, so I may actually pilot this thing.

My one fear is it won't be well armed enough. I really hope it can pump out at least 18 dmg...Oh and I hate spiders so change the name to something cool please...like the crazy ferret...or the shrew...pound for pound one of the most deadly mammals in nature :P
