Something no one thought about yet; TIE fighter sound effects for the Cyclops.

Another thing occurred to me..

PGI is known for making mech packs.. and they've never done a super-heavy mech..

So maybe the we'll be getting the Omega, or Orca?

In all seriousness, I hope the "new feature" ends up being something like pseudo random drop zones, or occasional misdrop feature, or more interactive terrain (trees and buildings that can catch fire, and/or fall over to cause damage (remember the original MW5 teaser video?), or if IK becomes real (which they say it will) surfaces that affect your movement (water or deep snow slows you, ice or other smooth surfaces that you can slip on) etc...stuff that might actually affect the match and give players more tactical variety. ANYTHING like that, anything at all, would be a welcome "new feature" imo.

Only when i get my Center Medium Torso Laser with a 70% decrease in Cool Down and Duration + 50% more range - in this case I would drop all the other guns Posted Image

Since the two games are centuries apart in the timeline, using the same maps would feel like a massive cheat to me.

Keep MW5 separate, make it what it should be - a story laden, rich, in-depth view into the Battletech setting.


Centuries~?! I think you're a few decades off there... Actually not even that.

MW5 will take place from between 3015 and 3049. That's only 34 years worth of story.

MWO is currently, what? 3057 or something? And will be moving to 3063 with the Civil War update.

So MWO is only about 14 years ahead of what MW5 will probably have its story END in.

A comprehensive aesthetics enhancements system, or that's what they should be implementing at least to diversify their income and allow more personalisation options.

I knew it was 3050-something, I just couldn't recall what exactly the something was.

i know this. the feature is going to be far more mundane than they make it out to be.
