Madcat MKII sounds good to me. When can we expect it?

While we are at it, I'd also like a Madcat III



Heck, they need to make a Madcat IV that is a light mech so I can make an entire drop deck full of Madcats...That is if I played CW.

Sorry, but the Mad Cat Mk. IV designation has already been taken for a Dark Age Clan 75-tonner.

I don't want the Mad Cat MkII. I have enough OP Clan Mechs, kthxbai.

Welp, time to move on to Madcat V.

Maybe it should be a Madcat mk .V?

I don't even know where you're going with that. We are talking about light balance. Reading comprehension strikes again. People derailed ops thread because they got triggered reading one of my tweets telling a light pilot to quit crying about what's fair. Honestly until collisions are added to the game you have no right to address "light balance".

Also MWO does not care one bit about lore so let's not try to use that crutch.

You asked "What is your attachment to lights?" This is not a question about light balance, this is a question about preference ("What is your attachment" ie "Why do you care"). If you wanted that specific question to be about light balance, you should have worded it differently.

A person's attachment to lights may include (among other reasons) history, and lore, and the basic design of the game. I answered - they're a fundamental part of the game ("far more important..."). And then I snarkily pointed out that they're more important than a single 90 ton Clan Battlemech.

Seems like I'm not the one with "reading comprehension" concerns.

Nope. We're going to skip straight to the Mad Cat VVVVVV, which uses all its pod space for jump jets and a device that reverses the direction of gravity.

Something to lighten the mood here...

How did with all this Mk II hype....how did we miss these from IWM?!?



Mad Cat Mk. II 4 This variant of the Mad Cat carries two ER Large Lasers in each arm and a pair of LRM-15 launchers. A Light Active Probe identifies hidden units. It retains the 120 meter jump radius of the base model.

Mad Cat Mk. II 5 This variant carries a Gauss Rifle in the right arm, supported by an Improved Heavy Large Laser and Improved Heavy Medium Laser in the left arm. Six Improved Jump Jets allow it to cover 180 meters at a time.

I want the Cougar too of course!

[DiabetesOverlord Wilford Brimley]

After the MK II I'd like the nova cat, blood asp, mw4 hellhound, uziel, and a stone rhino! I won't advocate those though until my baby comes

It is pretty, but man is it going to be terrible.

Such a silly design, 24 tons locked into JJs and a Gauss Rifle all too lock up and waste tonnage.

Isn't the Cougar just a Puma without the hood?

We is completely the wrong word, stop misrepresenting me.

The "We's" who just want mechs to purchase are who keep allowing PGI to do very little with this game. They will floss you people wanting this most pined for mech when they absolutely are in dire financial terms. I hope soon. PGI doesn't deserve to hold this IP hostage any more.

And who is going to take it up, considering the deathly long abandonment of any other new MW title by MS.
MW4 is 16 years old, Mech Assault 2 is 12 years.

Who cares if someone picks it up? Just because they provided an arena shooter with mechs doesn't mean we should bow down to PGI or this stale shallow game. Something is not better than nothing. Not with how this game is 5 years later, which is not very different.

[pbiggz]

Clearly none of you guys have much to do other than complain about the mechs you don't want in game.
