Hmmm.

[Alistair Winter]

It would perhaps have been appropriate if the screenshot showed the next map being made for MWO.

Not the next mech pack.

Coulda, woulda, shoulda ...

Wanna buy a mech pack?

What map? If there was a new map coming anytime soon they would have.

Come on, give us a still of the imminent new map that Russ is going to talk about. I want you to prove my cynicism is misplaced for once.

[Glaive-]

Am interested to hear what the stream is going to be about exactly. Hopefully Russ has stuff to announce that isn't just FW or mechpacks

The Nova Cat is looking pretty great so far actually. It's a shame that it'll probably be ruined by the volume scaling and dynamic weapon models. Those amazing laser barrels will most likely become stubby boxes

[YUyahoo]

Maybe it would be more appropriate to title this "production DELAY update with Russ Bullock". Don't get me wrong, I was as happy as anyone to have the new tech introduced...but there are so many other things we are all eagerly awaiting that keep getting put off patch after patch (not just new maps) that its getting harder and harder to believe anything we hear in these sessions with Russ other than what next months mechpack will be (even though there is no need for it to be a "pack" anymore now that the rule of 3 is long gone).

They will not.

Why did the Cougar lose the barrels though!

I did not pre-order the Nova Cat during the early adopters phase. Looking at the model, I am regretting that a bit.

[STEEL JUSTICE]

I hope we will see the nightstar too.

Agreed... I opted for the Nightstar, maybe they will show something of the work on that model

[Pariah Devalis]

Love it, except for the head design. I still wish it retained the more angular configuration of all its previous iterations. Seems way too... rounded to me. Still, though, overall that is one sexy mech. Especially with those barrels!

[B0oN]

The only thing I´m interested right now is :
how many maps
what size
which environments ( do we finally get to see some night/day shifts with forced weather/temperature changes, low/zero-grav maps, underwater maps, maps to have tactical battles on some bigger maps with the olde "central hotspot", etc. etc. )

And yes, we´ve been waiting quite some time for proper new battlegrounds, not only the map-remakes you did (looping back to that: give us the old maps of the remade ones to play on as well, the more maps, the merrier), so stop teasing, get releasing.

[MechaBattler]

As an IS loyalist. That is one damn sexy mech. Very intimidating and those barrels.... can we get the same for the Osiris?

[HGAK47]

Thats a nice looking mech, its arms look like they shield the chubby belly just nicely ;-)

As others have said though, new maps is too hot a topic to ignore.

[DSkou7]

So why the phrase "Production Update"? Is this not going to include Q&A?
