I would have expected one two days ago like the Spider.

On a Saturday? Not likely. Marketing was probably too busy with the valentine's sale and the twitch events

Marketing is another department entirely. Not to mention how disconnected they are when promotional media comes out. Or the annoyance that PR bits get first scoop long before it shows up here.

[Thirdstar]

So news about the Banshee AND no in-game shots of the Treb? Marketing is really dropping the ball.

[Norris J Packard]

It really makes me think we won't see the Trebuchet on Tuesday.

I'd like to be wrong, but honestly I can't see any excuse for there being no updates.

[LaserAngel]

Or worse, no patch on Tuesday...

[Tennex]

PGI isn't exactly consistent.

i don't think they really have a set sched for reveals, Q/A, sales, new mech concepts or anything like that.

[PoLaR]

A little screeny wouldn't hurt...

[Merky Merc]

I'd wager it looks similar to the released concept art.

I'm still skeptical.

Sounds like patch will be delayed... something is wrong if we havent gotten a preview of alpine or trebuchet yet

That's not relevant.

A screenshot can potentially give us the scale of the Mech, can show that the Mech is actually done/close to being done, etc.

It's content, in a content starved game, anything tangible like this is good. Simply failing to understand how to pad content out across many weeks is a massive weakness of PGI's that is almost sad.

I seriously hope not. Releasing the Spider before the TBT was bad enough, but another delay without some sort of prior communication would be very disappointing. Getting pretty bored waiting for them to finally release another mech I'm actually interested in driving!

if we can follow trend from centurion. it will get massive shoulder treatment. to avoid clipping (there is tons of clipping already, why the vein effort)

they reduced the cataphract's torso arm twist. but there is still large amount of clipping when the cataphract is turning.

It doesn't help much when you ask the devs and they just decide trolling their customers is a good idea...
So much for being professional.

When I try to aim my prachts arms it makes me feel like I have short and stubby arms on a mech with a 60 foot gut that it cant reach over. Still love the mech though. I Have been saving up for the trenchbucket, if it does not happen on tuesday I will be a sad pracht, but I do kind of fear patches , scared of what will break next....no offence IGP.

EDIT: User made maps IGP, user made maps now!
