If you mean that we won't see the entire TRO 3050 line up, then I agree with you.
Though we will probably get news updates that Icar, Somerset, Trellwan, etc have fallen to a mysterious alien invader.



Most people think we'll be getting clan mechs and packs in march, this is naive.

LULZ.

Yes. We are superior! We are honorable!

We feel so honorable calling out honor duels in mechs 300 years superior to yours! No "unfair" advantage to be had!

Yawn. Has fun with yer Cos-play son.


The IS has had access to infinitely better resources and at least the same tech level as Kerensky's predecessors (when they departed), and it's our fault that you've been going backwards in tech somehow?!

Last post to mention it said that the initial stage of it was going to launch in late March. Which means probably something like support for clans in the game.
Man, people are SO impatient.

any one who thinks clans are coming this march, is in for a shock.

I can't wait for the QQing next month.


I have the feeling the ISN News Flash is going to be very evasive on the subject of the Clan Invasion. The clans might just invade the forums.

Know what this community needs to instill patience? More cockpit items!
(or a "next mech" announcement with art by FD)

I thought the clan roleplay was supposed to be confined to their own forum section.

Then they shouldn't have said they were doing a timeline.

Hell we're still in ***((((""""BETA""""))))*** with no sign of ending.

Who said they can't? The problem is people are wanting it now (you know, the whole: "I want, I want, I want. Me, Me, Me. Now, Now, Now).

People also want ECM to be fixed, won't be happening though.

I said they can't, it's a fact, we're off time line already.

In order for them to be on time we'd need the 4 classes of mechs for the clans in march.

1 clan light, 1 clan medium, 1 clan heavy and 1 clan assault.

Then they'd have needed to have made clan weapons and equipment,

Then they'd have needed to have balanced it,

Then they'd need to have figured out how to balance them,

Then they'd need to have made CW so we got our factions up.

Hi guys I’m kind of new to MWO (even though I’ve been playing BTech for the last 25 years or so :D), and I’ve just been getting out of the trial mechs now and I had a thought about Clan mechs...

I’m a massive fan of the Clans (go Wolf or go Home), but I’ve noticed so few warriors try to play the game with any skill, or to challenge themselves! When I try to duel other mechwarriors they often gang up on me, or shoot me when I’ve shutdown. So this got me thinking, how will the Clans and their awesome mechs be implemented over the next year?

So if you've been playing BT for 25 years, then aren't you aware of the fact that this is exactly what happened in the inner sphere invasion? The IS doesn't fight for honor, they fight to win.

And with you dying all the time, doesn't that reflect on the skills of your tactics? Or lack thereof.

Silly.

But as for one on one matches and different scenarios, assymetric battles and so on, I'm all for that, and strongly urge PGI to implement all these scenarios. However, until then, everyone else here seems to be adapting to the situation and trying to use the best tactics available...

Join a Clan League that does 8v8 sync drops. You'll get your duels that way.

Yeah, I want to assault bases, capture warehouses full of mech components and secure space ports, not sit next to a mining platform for points.
