The mech announcements have followed a regular schedule of 14 days. I was really looking forward to finding out the next assault mech planned for today, but that did not happen. MWO Fans were a little disappointed today. :D

I've been following the thread started by Odanan as he seems to have it figured out...

Piranha is trolling us. I've been sitting here studying and keeping an eye on the site to see what it is. I'm a sad panda.

They're likely in crunch time getting things ready for the next round of beta and don't have any new mech ready to show off.

with them giving us the Atlas vid today, i can see them holding off another day or 2 before showing new mech concept art. Or maybe the next mech is the biggest surprise yet and they want to see how much we beg for a new mech lol

I mean, it could have something to do with the fact they've released a new mech every other Wednesday for months now.

That might be it.

Maybe.

look closely under the waves and you will see it crouching behold the king crab surfacing at a beach near you! either that or it will be the littlest assault mech you know the one.

Just PGI trolling us most likely.

I'm hoping we get the Zeus. The Lyrans need their scout 'Mechs or they won't be able to fight properly.

The Zeus is simply too awesome to meet a deadline.
