Looks nice, but... I don't really like these humanoid chassis :/
Maybe it is from BT, but comparing with mechs like Bushwacker, TimberWolf, Madcat MK2, Cicada this one is like from another universe. Quite different design... I don't get it :/

Bought it. Mankind wasn't meant to resist mechs like this.

Can you make that hero have just a few more hard points? I can't even imagine trying to fit a load out that works for a 55 tonner with an adjustable engine.

i'd probably do something like this

https://mech.nav-alp...8ddf36db_VGL-RI

or this

https://mech.nav-alp...80bd2a4a_VGL-RI

the other variants can run the same builds with better weapon mounts, but they don't have MASC. i'm also expecting that the rival will get slightly better quirks than the rest.

Not just that. Haven't people wanted Jet Blast and Jet Intake decals for ages?

It's a GREAT looking mech, as always, but I have to agree with the previous comments: with the unfair clan nerfs that you keep trying to get passed means no more pre-order... sadly.

Do something other than the PTS nerfs and I'll buy it, I just got paid.


I got a grand sitting in my paypal balance but PGI ain't getting a dollar of it if the nerfs of either PTS go through to the live servers. I have enough virtual content already, I certainly don't need more if a large # of my existing money sinks which I do still play are going to become garage queens with the ones I don't bother playing due to previous nerfs.

And take away MASC? You're not thinking big enough.

Why always repeating the same left arm balístic load out in all variants? At least make one with balístic weapon on the right arm and laser mounted on the left.. please!

Anyone else getting some serious Pacific Rim vibes off of this mech? The Hero mech especially reminds me of that Chinese jaeger from the first movie.

A lot of the mechs towards the end of the BT lore look kinda funky. As we get closer to Jihad and Dark Age stuff the mechs just get weirder and weirder. Especially Clan and Word of Blake designs.

I'll need to see some more investment in MWO from PGI before I make any further investment in it.

Improving FP, zero-basing the PSR system, and creating Many More Maps, should be top of my agenda.

(Endless spreadsheet changes to weapon, armor and quirk values don't constitute 'investment'. That's just shuffling deckchairs.)

looks great, I'm still not buying it cause you still want to nerf clans. Also you can't put ecm on another clan hero?! Not like clans have stealth armor. would be more willing to buy stuff if you all did that. IS mechs still outnumber clan mechs with ecm. no I will not count omni mechs as multi mechs.

hey PGI: Take my money! I want it. And right after this bring the Clan Laser nerf and turn all Clan Mechs to LRM Only builds. Lets see if this Mech can handle a few Lurms for be at least usable. Sad for the only Laser Boats...
