This thread is, unfortunately, non-constructive. It opens with a very demanding statement "requiring" action from PGI on an issue that the opening author has absolutely no inside knowledge of. We don't know WHY they aren't commenting, we don't know what they have already discussed in their offices, and nobody who posted in this thread has an answer. Saying stuff like "they will never release them" and "of course they will release them" are both equally inappropriate statements, as is demanding an explanation from them. They have control over all the announcements they make, be it related to in-game content, promotions, game features, 3rd party involvements, or whatever.

To demand that they tell us whether or not we should be hopeful for the reseen is essentially a demand for them to relinquish their internal game plans, and that is not acceptable. If anyone would like to continue this discussion about the unseen and reseen mechs, it will have to be done in a mature fashion, not by threatening the game developers with pitchforks and torches. This thread is being jettisoned from the general discussion because the topic (demanding that PGI announce their internal plans for dealing with the unseen) is not a discussion about the current gameplay or the game, itself. It's a discussion about their marketing/promotional agenda.

If you're sick of the answer, stop asking the question. It's not hard.

A thread full of worms sent to a forum full of birds? How thoughtful.

From the last "Ask the Devs" answers. I'm really tired of seeing "I can't comment." or "Insert dancing around the issue here." It's been brought up, again and again how the "Reseen" are under no legal issues. And that even more recently Harmony Gold has no leg to stand on when it comes to the original artwork anyway. Look guys, Just give us a damn solid answer to the effect of if we can be hopeful they'll EVER make it into the game in ANY form. All we want is a "Can we be hopeful unseen/reseen will make it into the game even if undergoing a signifigant redesign by Alex." All we want is a yes or a no to this question.


You nor anybody else will EVER get a yes/no answer to this.

HG and fasa had a private agreement that's under, we presume, a gag order, settled out of court. Those who hold the FASA stuff are presumably still under the same agreement, and said agreement may still hold regardless of HG having or not having a legal leg to stand on.

You can:

drive yourself nuts asking for answer you will NEVER get

or

Find a way to get over it.

Most of the unseen designs look like anime ********* anyway. I am glad they are not in the game.


You are aware Battletech came about BECAUSE of "anime crap" as you so elegantly put it.

The creators wanted to recreate the battles they saw in those classic anime on the table. And Battletech was born.

No they don't. Unless the fusion reactor is powered by burning spirit and the power of friendship. And the best weapon is the power of j-rock. They just took the anime visual designs and wrapped it around a game of tanks with legs.
