I challenge you, PGI, to dare to define MWO as a unique entry in the franchise. To stand out and shine in all robot glory...

Quads!

Quads require new code + Crytek dying = no implementation.

I approve of this message, but I have to take issue with the images chosen. I want Alex to base them on _these_:

That's what the Stalking Spider II, with dual HMGs is for. That, and it has a turret.

Eh, anything called "Ursa" just makes me think of this adorable idiot.

And I imagine people playing it like Ursa players play Dota 2. Aka running towards the enemy no matter what.

Part of me wanted to not actually respond to this thread. To be MYSTERIOUSLY absent. To confuse people.

But then again, it's a thread about Quadrupeds.
I just can't resist.

I still have a pack of Ursas here. The figures come from the Mechwarrior Dark Age clix game, where the Ursa itself premiered.

pgi wants to do a game thats different than any other mechwarrior game (their utter refusal to copy tried and true mechanics from legacy mw games is a testament to that), and i cant think of a better way than to add things those games did not have.
