Counting from post-MW5 announcement.
(Sorry, Roughneck, you missed being counted by a few hours)

How many more mechs that we haven't seen yet will be released before this game powers down its nominal systems?

Your predictions?
(I'd say the winner wins a mech pack, but by the time we have the answer it will be too late for that)

Ok, so... if we assume (For the sake of doom and gloom) that MW5: Merc does kill MWO... and that it's released in December of 2018... and that mech's are released all the way until MW5:M does get released... 24 more mechs.

That was easy.

As many as PGI can squeeze out to capitalize on cash...obviously. I win!

OK, but we got a lot more than 12 new mechs this year.

Is it really so simple?

I don't care how many

Did we? I'm only counting 10 this year.

EDIT: Or 11, actually.

Unless PGI ramps it up to 3 mechs a month/1 mech a week I vote 24 more mechs if MWO really does die in two years.. assuming it doesn't die sooner.

Oh, I see. I wasn't thinking purely about chassis. We had clan heroes. We had reinforcements added to mech shopping. All of that.

I mean, I did count all the variants the other day. The number is on the forums somewhere... 440-ish I think.

But counting future variants is insane, particularly since the new skill tree kind of makes it a moot point. The days of actually paying attention to every variant are probably gone.
