Just because you don't know how to shoot while moving doesn't make them useless.

its not shooting while moving that makes me hate it, its the lack of any large bore weapons or firepower in general biggest thing that piece of **** fields is a medium pulse if you shave tonnage off armor hell whats next are they gonna add the worthless urbanmech to the lineup to appease the other group of $#()%'s on the forums? the light mechs now outnumber the other models by at least 2, that idea doesnt thrill me at all

Look at the bright side:

When they are added, all the n00bs will flock to the useless light mechs because they're new, and you can stay in your big boy heavy or assault and own them like a pro boss. That'll learn 'em, those rascals!

if they add limitations to the game, we'll all learn to fear fleas.

“I can’t hit him he’s at my feet. I can’t see that far down!” screamed the Atlas cadet

Lol thats so stupid where does it say that an Atlas pilot can't look at his own feet or point his weapons down there since he has ARMS and HANDS and LEGS that have KNEES that can crouch down. =P

May I suggest the Atlas-D? Upgrades the AC/10 to an AC/20, the LRM-15 to an LRM-20, two medium lasers to four medium lasers, the SRM-4 to an SRM-6, and 14 tons of armour up to 19. And all at the cost of ~12 km/h.

Now that was a reveling post. So... no Orion in MWO, it looks like.

I agree with you, the Orion has the same horrible mixbag weapon layout as Atlas, Highlander and Cyclops... but, even so, I really wanted to see it redesigned by Alex Iglesias. That mech is so hideous that there is something very pretty about it. And it really represents the original decadent, pessimist feel of the Battletech Universe (not that cheesy space opera after 3055).

Look at this and tell me you won't feel sad for humanity.

Lights are so much fun. I was evil in my Firefly in MW3 and loved the Flea in MW4.

Better be careful what you say. Everyone was rolling their eyes at the Jenner before the beta, but after that video was leaked I think they've begun singing a different tune.

Come to think of it.. I was kind of harsh on the Commando when it came out..

Thought it was too small, not enough weapons, etc.. etc..

BOY has my opinion on the Commando changed.. Its one of my favorite Mechs now (2nd to Awesome). The Mech I was sure I would love (The Centurion) I now really dont care for..

So I could be wrong..

I want a Warhammer... a Thor and well a Madcat for the holidays!

[HitNRun66]

MWO newbie here, how long till these new mechs hit our Mech Lab?

[Shatsbasoon]

Well I for one am happy the Flea is back! Every Mechwarrior game needs the "I lost a bet" mech!

[Gryphonhawk]

srry but you wont see the warhammer I think thats one of the ones they used from the macross/robotech if I am not mistaken,

[Jin Dax]

GIMME THE OWENS!!!

[ElJefe]

Long Leeve THE FleA!

The Flea~! It was an annoying bug in MW4: Mercs.

Though I'm not a fan of light mechs (Raven is an exception), but I'm looking forward to take the Flea for a ride in the future. It seems fun to ride, ya. It would go insanely fast with the MASC equipped, can even outrun Jenners. I guess the Flea will be the most annoying nuisance after Jenner when MASC is introduced.

By the way, I find it interesting that this mech was Wolf's Dragoons in origin. But until in 3040's, the Flea is officially a Capellan mech in the eyes of the IS, after when they got their hands on its design blueprint. They favored the Flea was it because of its specs are equipped with full-energy weapons?
