Nope. Until PGI gets their act together, I'm not spending another penny on this game.

[Peter2k]

Well aside from BT toying with my Mechwarrior need/fix

There are other memorys and nostalgia being tickled
At fairer prices I might add




Sooo
Yawn about another assault
Maybe I'll pick it up for C-Bills and if I like it add the most useful version, the hero

[TheArisen]

With the Marauder IIC being the last another assault may not have been the best way to go.


I tend to pilot IS mechs generally so I'll wait for cbills despite MW3 nostalgia.

[Thunder Child]

Goddamn it PGI.

One of only TWO mechs that would get me to open my wallet again, and you release it! CURSE YOU VILLAINS!

I will be buying this one. I have to. She's my baby from TT. A pity Ghost Heat means I can't fire all 6 LL in a turn, but thems the breaks.

Anyways, after this, my wallet is closed again..... unless you RELEASE THE KRAKEN!

[Y E O N N E]

I will not be buying it. Just like I did not buy the Huntsman. Or the Cyclops. Or the Night Gyr.

I want a Light.

[VitriolicViolet]

nah i wont get it, last thing i bought was the cyclops and while it was ok i need content.

CONTENT as in weapons, at the least bring in MOAR WEAPONZ.

Seriuosly i really want weapons, ill buy 2 FULL MECH PACKS IF you release even ONE new weapon.

Especially if that Weapon is the Arrow IV. I can't wait to see people Noob-Tubing themselves at point blank range against enemies, building, walls, cliffs, etc.

[DaZur]

Nope... Wallets closed until I get my Nova Cat.








Who am I kidding? It's a new shiny... Of course I'll buy it.

Not buying the pack.

Not buying for MC.

Not buying for C-Bills.

This, no chance, none what so ever.

Why not a Warhammer IIc, appears the way they choose the mechs they release is the same dart board they use for balance decisions.

Does Arrow IV do splash damage? That would be great fun, launching a single big missile at a time with splash damage into a ball of mechs.

It doesn't look great, but boy does it look great. That special variant camo looks sick.

It's like a smaller Long Tom. Problem is, it takes up too many Crit Slots, and we don't have Crit Splitting.
My suggestion for implementing it was to have the Arrow IV launcher as a Missile Component, and then have an Arrow IV Targeting Computer as an Equipment Component. And then you just need one Computer per Launcher.

Edit: I think it was 15 Damage instead of 20, and the AoE was only 90m, instead of the MAXIMUM DERP of the current Long Tom. But still, 15 damage to every component of every mech in a 45m Radius from the Impact point is pretty scary.
Sure, it'll probably fly at half the speed of LRMs, be able to be shot down by AMS, have a 20 second Reload Time, a Minimum Range of 500m, and it will have to be locked to be fired.....
But I'd still run one of a CLPT-C3.

Well it's my standard post every new mech announcement.

<-Obviously I'm not buying it.

Buying it would require being supportive of the current progress on the game from PGI.

Nope.

Smaller Long Tom sounds like great fun!

So not likely to see it? That's a shame.

Nope Nope Nope....as usual.

[Cranial Enigma]

Not interested in another assault when we already have the maruader IIC, coming which should have opened it up for either an IS assault or a light since we have not had a light mech pack in a really long time. Maybe..... MAYBE..... if it was the fire moth I would buy it, but there needs to be more in the game besides just PvP and the baren faction war before I will buy anything with money.

Man, it's going to get weird for some people if the Marauder II gets released. And then double weird if they release the Marauder II C.

[Snowbluff]

It's pretty, but it's not the mech I wanted.

Personally, an energy assault is unattractive to me. I barely use my KDK-1 as it is. And it's slow. And it's an omni with entirely redundant pods.

[Moldur]

MWO suffers the same issues as when I stopped buying anything from PGI. Sure, you get a cool shiny new mech. What can you do with it though? The lake is still tiny, buying a brand new shiny motorboat doesn't make the lake less tiny.

Its not an omnimech.

But yeah, it has a lot of redundancy between models.

I guess it lets you fine tune just how many lasers eat the dirt.
