I think he was more concerned with CDS's questionable design practices and quality control issues. You know they are cutting corners to maximize profits as much as possible..

Personally I've historically been more interested in older women.... but my wife does clock in at 8 days younger than me, so yeah.. you got me I guess.

By all means list your favorite mech.....seriously I said no petty grudges. If you can't handle that, how do you plan on it when I kill you while i pilot a MK II?

I highly doubt you could say anything about the Mist Lynx that hasn't already been said.

Mechs who's development had a decent quality control, and weren't born for the purpose of profit.

Only if we get the other two notable CSV battlemechs that are the Vapor Eagle and Black Python, can even throw in the Matador for good measure.

If he can fix the Viper, he can fix the Black Python.

Most great things in this world were born for the purpose of profit. Either that or born out of the need to kill your fellow man. The Mad Cat MK II was born from both of those at the same time. It's glorious.

I literally know nothing about the Black Python (Viper) outside of the fact that it's a 75 tonner and it's infuriating that the IS named it the Viper, since I always get the two mechs mixed up.

The newer version looks like a grown up Cougar. I... sort of like it? Don't really care for the fists, but I like the jet fighter vibe.

No, it was created for the purpose of trying to hawk it off to the other Clans, mostly Wolf and Jade Falcon, neither of whom wanted anything to do with it.

Because they wouldn't know a good mech if it had been airdropped onto their homes. Your only real explanation for disliking it is "It's too much like the Timber Wolf", and "It's not a perfectly loaded Omnimech". Wait a second... Was it you who said they'd enjoy the Grizzly getting added to the game awhile back, or was that someone else?

Nope. I dislike it because it was a poorly made knockoff who's purpose was to inflate CDS's wallet, a purpose which it failed with the relevant Clans. Seriously, the only reason most people want it is because it has cockpit height dual gauss. Except, that can be done better by a 60 ton heavy.

I'd venture that most people who want it, it's because they think it looks neat. With Gundams.... Rule of Cool. I mean... seriously....it's a video game.... what other real reason is there to want something? Being "Uber" doesn't actually translate to much.
