CSI could find you if you fatrted when you commited your crime.
"Enhancing" 4-8 pixel letters will be no problem to their technology which I got my hands on.

I found something interesting besides the 3D Graphics, stereoscopic 3D....

interview extract:

interviewer (time hack 1:38):"Something else is new, you'll kinda be able to navigate the cockpit when you're the pilot of these mechs, which feels really cool"

Bryan Eckman, Creative director (time hack 2:02): "....put lots of little ***** and doo-dads and actually make the screens functional" (really, the filter will not let me post the plural of k n o b??)

Okay, this suggests that we will be able to actively "navigate" some of the on-screen bits, probably with either a mouse, the "tab" button, or both. (maybe a hatswitch on a JS)

How can you be sure I did not "enhanced" the image and then just found a way to justify my findings to others?

Assasin on the top right i think
And awesome on left

It's an Awesome, which is AWESOME news.

I'm moving on to hoping for my other Mechs as I'm sure the Awesome is now TBA.

Awesome on the left. Mauler has a pair of rocket launchers above the level of cockpit, while the mech on the picture doesn't have anything sticking above the middle top of the mech.

And that's not Assassin, it's probably just a Dragon without the AC (because they changed the look of it based on community suggestions).

Why would PGI commit such a blatant oversight by showing concepts of 'Mechs not yet unveiled? And if they did, why haven't the news outlets plastered these unseen (lol) 'Mechs across the Internet?

A simple mistake, intended leak, etc.

The main fact reamins the same - We see a concept of an Awesome, and that's all that matters.

Just posting what I said over at MechSpecs:


Re-Posting the Picture for reference


First thing that caught my eye
* far right row, 3 down. Notice the Arms look like barrels and notice the shoulders and how they stick up vertically. Awesome perhaps?
This is also noticeable in the first image when you look at the entire 3rd row, seems like an Awesome Awesome to me!

* 2nd Picture (right ride), the top row, the first 3 images. Does not look like the commando to me due to the fact if you look at the sketch with the front, back and side it does not seem to have a head. Also the flat body on the side angle has lead to many speculations. Orion perhaps?

* 2nd Picture, Bottom row, first image. Different arms for the centurion!

you guys did not notice this detail?

Really, you guys are more worried about mechs than game funtionality? Tunnel vision FTW

I don't have a 3D monitor so no. I will agree, I thought the fact that it was added was really cool. I think stereoscopic 3D is going to become more and more common as 3D TV's and monitor prices come down.

[Sarah Dalrymple]

So long as 3D mode is optional. Most kinds of 3D televisions and movies give me migraines, which would render me ineffective in battle!

Why in the heck was that Jenner slow walking towards the Atlas?

Still looks like it is going to be fun.

[Randal Waide]

What we have there is all of the mechs we have already seen, in various variation on the theme. Concept work only. The artist probably roughed up several different looks for each mech for approval. I doubt they would leak anything by accident. Creative types are paranoid. It would be just like a sleazy game company to rip off final concepts for work ups. Everyone chill.

[DRevD]

The only new one for sure is the Awesome. The Mauler some people are seeing I think is just a continuation of the Awesome concept. The awesome does have tall shoulders which with the blurry picture could be mistaken for missile launchers.

There seems to be two sets of atlas pictures, but thats kinda odd. One might be another mech, though its hard to tell which one. The upper left mech (2nd pic) has a similar shape as the atlas but somewhat trimmer. Too blurry to tell for sure.

[Brakkyn]

I'm not going to buy into the speculation of people who think they are seeing an Awesome. We'll have one when (and if) it's officially revealed, and not when you visually matrix a blurred image into something you think you recognize.

[Outlaw2]

Even if its not an Awesome, its a mech we haven't seen yet. Though I suspect there are two mechs we haven't see yet in that blurry *** picture.
