Marcus said: "Another masculinized girl-boss. You clearly showed, that planed game income isn't from gamers, so it would be foolish to expect something good from you, remove from wishlist."

I said: "You removed it from wishlist because of masculinity of clan mechwarrior woman? Do you feel unsecure? Clan trueborn warriors are all tough, including ALL women. its the lore, dude)))"

I think this Markus guy mixed agenda with lore.

Mia seems freakin' intense!

Also - a Smoke Jaguar MechWarrior with EI tattoos Now that's digging pretty deep into the lore

Looks COOL !

It doesn't matter if a Clan Warrior is male or female, any Clan Warrior has survived through many trials since birth and is more than capable of doing what they were bred to do. Anyone who is upset that there are strong female Clan Warriors, does not know BattleTech lore. All of the voice actors are great so far.

Great video. Finally, we were shown one of the ladies featured in our game. Circle of equals, EI implant tattoo, more and more immersion in the history of the universe and Lore itself in this game is already very much. The Clans are shown as real Clans and this is very good.

I think it's not a bad idea to add skins for the MWO pilot, and sell them of course

the chick is the more manly looking one (very clan-like) nvm that though, this is cool, but I really would like to know more about game-play features, those would be the things I'm more interested about. characters, and plot details is something I usually like to experience organically and knowing as little as possible.

but what about weapons? are you guys going to take more liberties like you did with MW5M? (like whe you added the light , medium, and heavy rifles?) are you going to reimagine the Battletech universe with MW5C? are we getting more polished melee for this one? can we stretch arms? can we dump unexpended ammo from destroyed weapons? will superchargers be implemented? what about environmental destruction? can we ran through a building and get momentarily cloaked by the gigantic cloud of dust and debris (a building collapsing can leave a behind a cloud big enough hide an atlas in there even if just for a few seconds of very cinematic effect) maybe some interesting level design like rivers\lakes deep enough to hide a whole mech? just wondering...

-we are the pilots...maybe a feature that allowed us to add a portrait of sorts? though I can see how clowns will abuse such feature for the sake of being mean, hateful or downright gross....maybe presets images?...with a degree of customization? like those in the HBS battletech?

Would it be possible to release a list of the mechs that we will be able to play/ fight against? We know from the trailers that there will be a couple of IS mechs and the base omnis from the clans but we dont know if we will be able to play as clan BATTLEmechs. The IIC series of mechs are really effective and certainly iconic! Not seeing them so far makes us scared that they will not be included .

if they go all the way to operation bulldog PGI can get away with a lot more than that, they could even add protomech....a big "if" though.
