What is the coolest looking mech in game in your opinion? Please do not consider game performance, only the 3D model and pattern (the appeareance in game).
To me the Huntsman is simply a great looking mech. It's really a beauty. Kudos to the 3D artists that have done it.

Gonna with the mech that always been with me through thick and thin



Just love it sleek and refined look, while still having an animalistic style to it

Warhammer, she just looks like something that is going to put you in a world of hurt.

I think P.G.I's take on the Linebacker.

While I don't like the clans much for balance issues since their inception, I've liked a lot of the 3D models, which is why I own so many of them.

The Huntsman I cancelled, but when it arrived in 3D glory, I just had to buy it, the LB has taken a lot of flak for not being meta, but for sheer looks it's the best to date, in my opinion.

Pffft I run PPC arms, nothing stubby on my Whammy.

Just like Critical Rocket once said : "Warhammer is what makes Battletech A BATTLETECH."
Love this Beauty machine

While I own the Warhammer and is one of my preferred IS mech in game, I do not like the 3D model a lot. It's too different from the original art. For the unseen mechs, I love the Archer and Rifleman 3D models, Marauder is good while Warhammer is "meh"...

Agreed, the 3D model seems very, very good.

It's easier to point out the really bad ones than choose the best one.

I don't know... I like the Thunderbolt, despite its horrid dynamic geometry.

[JediPanther]

I'd say the Catapults. I'd add image but the forum doesn't like me enough. Hoorah for the art dep in updating the old looks of mech to be cool again.

[xVLFBERHxT]

To be honest, I like them all!

For me, the coolest looking 'Mech in the game was the original CPLT-K2 Katapult, when it had those massive PPC barrels.

Pre-rescale Black Knights were very good looking. The re-scale made them look really awkward, something with the geometry messed up.

As far as i know, the only thing they changed geometry-wise is they made one of the Right Arm mounts larger, more like the Concept art. Which, in my opinion, is a nice change.

[Pariah Devalis]

Huntsman. It just exudes a look of threat. It also has a more sensible, sloped armor design to it. Something you'd actually start to expect with real warmachines.

[Belacose]

Shadow Cat

[kuma8877]

While I love almost every design, my favorite overall is the good OL Hunchy. To me it exudes purpose. I'm just gonna stroll up and punch you in the face with this AC 20...KAPOW!
