I am LOVING the design cues on this beast! EXCELLENT job FD.

My worries about seeing another Centurion-esque "Gundam" are being quelled quite nicely. Gonna go work on some Raven configs!

So the Raven is apparently Davion and French. Interesting

House Davion is historically French. In fact back on Terra the earliest ancestors of the contemporary Davion's were French, that lineage is not something they have shied away from in the centuries since they departed Terra.

Y NO BETA!!! ;D

But:
Love the look! I dislike the (more classic I guess) way it is in MWLL.
And McDoomswinger -- that's awesome. XD

What, you won't use "That's so Raven"? *Evil chuckle if people get flashbacks to that show*
The nose is more of a sad dog than a birdish beak, but other than that I don't have too many problems with it.
I'm also pleased it has Davion colors considering how it was a Cappie design mostly.

Where is the face-palm emoticon.

I dare not tred there.

Also I agree about the nose. Kinda weird looking, rattish almost.

Bird like, hmmm you mean dinosaur like, because birds are related to raptors like the dinosaurs

To be totally honest, when I first opened up the thread and I saw the image - I reflexively said ew. I really didn't like it at all.

Now, having said that, the more I go back and look at it - the more it grows on me. Yes, it is ugly. But it's much more military than previous versions of it. It's much more utilitarian.

I'll be proud to see my scouts in them. Nice work FD!

Wow... the Raven looks like a...
Raven... atleast the cockpit beak shape anyway...

Looks awsome.

Oh and dull thud = NARC beacon? :DDD

[LaorDeLove]

I would pilot it. If it does the job well, who cares what it looks like besides it looks like it will be harder to hit since it looks narrower. It should be a thrill to pilot it.

[Arnisador]

I like it! I wish for an another image with different angle.

[Ironhawk]

Very different but nice design touch by our favourite FD! This will be an interesting ride in-game. Looking forward to start repaint work on this one. Would have expected default Capellan 'colors' on it but that is something a paintshop can fix...

[Siilk]

Damn, that's ugly! Worst Raven I've ever seen.

[FoXabre]

Intersting look. Overall I like it, but I think the lower section is a little fat compared to the old design.

St00bert likes the 'Mech... St00bert does NOT like the Universal Symbol of Surrender (French Flag) painted on the 'Mech.

St00bert is done refering to St00bert in the third person.

[StonedDead]

Very nice! Love the new look! Keep up the good work devs!

[SirRobert Johnson]

I only got one problem with this game so far and that is the look of the Raven. It looks like a bird with an ant-eater nose. That is all.

[Hartsblade]

Really like the new Raven, nice work FD!

I do think it looks more like a greyhound than a bird, but still think it rocks!

[SpikeTank]

Good work devs!! (You should pay your artists a bonus for that pic)

[Garth Erlam]

Glad to see (most) people Raven about the new 'Mech.

[Fomorian]

So many nice ridges to catch my AC rounds from my Mauler! Looks great too!
