For sure. Yep, should be the Madcat mk II part deux, only look better.

im concerned about how high the shoulders are going to be above the cockpit. Im thinking its going to take way to much damage if you try to hill hump with those high mounts.

I wonder if PGI could implement a damage reduction for shooting certain parts rather than a flat armor/internal bonus, lore/common sense be damned.

That's already a thing. There is a couple of mechs with missile bay doors that add damage reduction when they are closed. Catapult, Centurion, Stalker and maybe some others.

Not trying to be rude, so if it comes across as such, I apologize;

Article 2, "Against Common Sense" works here.

It should get massive armor quirks too and +40% velocity PPC quirks you know just to make it work like a typical ******** clan overpowered mech..

I'm sure it'll ruin the game even more with it and the mad cat II together, almost pointless playing IS anymore.

I'm actually having way more fun with IS mechs than I ever did with Clan mechs.

Do you feel a thrill or tingle going up and down your legs? Good grief. I was excited over the Thrantos and look at the mess we got. Want to be that thrill is short lived?

Lol, I want some of what this guy is on...

Pointless playing IS? Hahahaha... don't make me throw a dual HGauss Annihilator at you.. or and Assassin for that matter..

Hell, IS is fun to play just for the MRMs..

[Gen Lee]

Blood Asp would be seriously wicked if this game had a mechanic for using a periscope. Who WOULDN'T want to use the BAsp if we had a targeting camera up in the shoulders, high above the cockpit and up there with the periscope weapons? It would be cool if you could switch to a side-torso camera up there on the same level as a weapon, to use for shooting over a ridge line without exposing the rest of your mech. I know it's wishful thinking, but if I were on a battlefield with that thing, I'd have my engineers mount something up there like that in a heartbeat, lol.

Well did you forget about dual heavy gauss annihilators, the most broken weapon/mech combo in the game? Also they for 5 mpl aside the high mounted hgausses just to **** you in the *** deeper.

Yes.

Armor quirks and MRMs make IS hilariously fun. I haven't played a clan mech at all in like a week.

AC/20 + MRMs on a decently-mobile, uber-armored chassis is just the most fun in the world.

For a second I though this was something interesting besides “would you like to buy another Mech Pack?”
