they shot that cat outta the air!

[Trogusaur]

Here's one: poptarts are temporarily displayed as nyan cats while jumping, and 5 ERPPCs appear in rainbow fashion.

It will be integral to the UrbanMechs that we will all be forced to pilot exclusively on "Urbie Day 2013". Mark your calendars so you don't miss out; April 01, 2013.

I wuld pIlot Urbanmech for this. it is the onlything to get me into one.

I do every day.

That being said, this should probably be merged with the other speculation thread.

So.. every thread on the forums will be merged into 'Wild Speculation'?

Serious Atlas does not approve of this unseriousness...

OMFG You are my hero. This is so my new wallpaper.

In other news, I speculate that Dev held worlds will have a 100 ton artillery piece that fires urbanmechs at their enemies as they are podding into orbit. They'll choke our spawn points with so many useless targets and free XP we won't know what hit us.

Urbanmech bullets, worse then nyan cat bullets.. :C

[DaZur]

Speculation: Paul, in an attempt to better understand the psyche of a Mechwarrior, will lock himself in a closet outfitted with a PC, a copy of Mechwarrior 3, ancillary control devices ( to include a hula girl ) and a space heater to simulate the environmental hardships within the confines of a Battlemech cockpit...

3 days later Paul will emerge dripping in sweat, convinced he could have defeated MW3 in two days had he not been distracted by the hula girl... Of which he affectionately refers to by the name of "Naughty Kitten"...

A psych eval will be ordered on the fourth day when Paul announced his engagement to the hula girl.

Had the rope ready Omigir, but since you spelled Canon wrong, the boss says you get a pass. (damn it all. We could use a good linching around here)

No idea how that saves me.. and dose not make it worse.. but eh, i will take what I can get. Accept for the urbanmech, i will let that pass.

Don't worry, suggesting the inclusion of something new doesn't warrant a lynch mob.
Destroying something old, on the other hand...
Anyway... back to topic, or lack thereof.



All we know so far is that MWO is going to be a software product using the mechwarrior license.
Could as well be a bundle of office applications with a mechwarrior related theme.
I mean, come one...
Table commander, Presentation Warrior, Word Lab, HPG mail... who could live without programs like that?

Bulletproof hats are confirmed...

NO, not helmets... i said bulletproof hats... helmets are not fashionable

[Vexgrave Lars]

I speculate that peace will be declared, and we'll all be left with unarmed racing mechs, and farm machines.

Had to open Chrome to see that, but it was well worth it!!

There will be an event called "Astrolympics", where every 'Mech jockey can prove his/her skills with a 'Mech in competitions like rowing, fencing, arm wrestling, handstand walking, etc. To make it more balanced, the only 'Mech you are allowed to use for this will be the Urbanmech!

And yes, the 'Mech will have to wear a fencing mask and gymnastic slippers!

I hear House Davion strongly disapproves of "non Cannon" 'mechs. I'd watch my back...

[Paul Inouye]

I am going to filter the forums for anyone who has stated something along the lines of "I haven't seen a screenshot/video/footage so I'm worried/sure it's vaporware" and then delete their accounts at the end of GDC.

How's this wild speculation... and not a fact?

[Phoenixfire]

When the clans do land they will get to say "enhanced imaging" and make everything look like the battle scenes from the old cartoon
