I believe my ex wife said very much the same thing... Fun, cyanide, it all sounds the same after a few years.

A Leopard. Just what my brand new Merc lance needs. No all I need is a pilot with guts. (unlike the last one who cost me my Catapault.

Well thank you developers! Unfortunately - I'll have to spend all night getting the cream out of my new jeans before I can get that shiny new joystick :)

Edit: Oh ya, I will crack one to this for sure!

I personally can't wait, I hope that if you guys get a training room, we can practice drops, so that way, my unit can perfect the art of hot dropping.

the reason for those floor doors on the leopard is pretty simple actually.

opening side doors and stepping out just seems like a bad idea.

I mean it's fine if you are parachuting out of a cesna. but when you are in a flying brick going at "too fast kph" from breaking through atmosphere, do you really want to open a huge door on the side, increasing the amount of drag significantly, and step out into what will probably be a full blown tumble?

or would you rather a more controlled drop, bomb style, straight down?

It's still a leopard, it's still got 4 mech bay...compartment thingies, and 4 primary doors for them. It just now got some secondary floor doors too. :)


Jumping from the side door would mean the Mech would have to 'jump' far enough to keep itself from colliding with (and tearing off) the wing of the drop-ship.
Large airdrops are not unusual for airships like the C-130 Hercules, Antonov An-124 Ruslan and the Lockheed C-5 Galaxy; all of which drop from the rear center of the fuselage.
Bomb bay style made obvious sense.

I can't wait for this to come out. And please tell me we will have that MW2 female voice in the live game. That brings back great memories of my first taste of mechwarrior that lead me into Battletech.

Wait??? Green is a color of House Marik? I had it pegged as CapCon.
Also why hasn't anyone mentioned about the other three Mechs you can see in this video? Any thoughts on what they are?

Now.. if memory serves me correctly (it often dosn't but i hope this time it will) The Lepord Class drop ship was imagery was pulled form somewhere else and became 'unseen' ..

So im going to cluth at any straw i can and look at this with the hope that all of the old unseen will become reseen, after a few tweaks by the great FD ...

So cool. I did'nt think it was possible for me to watch a one and a half minute long clip over and over again so many times, but it looks like I was wrong. But now, I want more. I can't wait to feast my eyes on the main course.


Fly like a brick, Atlas. Fly like a brick. Someone is about to have 100 tons of 'Eff You' land uncomfortably close to them.
