At this point, I know we have the final release art for older mechs but why not let Alex show us some more concept art for mechs beyond the first 4?


Because REASONS. They should sell chinese lewd comic book collections packed full of his art.

Oh marketing, doesn't PGI have full control over the Mechwarrior IP now within certain restrictions. We've talked about this before but make a print on demand MWO art book, coffee mugs, T-SHIRTS, etc.

We'd be paying them money to advertise for them.

I don't think anyone cares about hero mechs, but people do care about the real, actual mechs. Another raven delay would be terrible.

Mild Hyperbole...

While I will not outright dismiss the Trebuchet's impact on the perceived "value" of this impending patch, I argue the Phase-3 MM is probably the higher hing-post in regards to the success of the patch...

I just want figma atlas, MWO style. It'd look great with Adam Jensen and Optimus Prime.

I've pretty much given up hope, Garth said that the Treb would be previewed some time tomorrow "soon".

They don't seem to understand that it's not a preview if its being released moments after.

Unless of course they were just stalling for time, or legit not even finished with the Treb which wouldn't surprise me since when the Stalker was previewed the model itself in the screenshot had unfinished textures 3 days from release.


They're previewing it tomorrow because it's getting delayed until March.

Indeed, I'd be willing to drop moonland level prices for a figure of my Founder's Catapult.

Models that come with a code to redeem on the website so you can have the same item as an in-game bobblehead. PGI is sitting on a goldmine of untapped potential.

The last time they didn't hype a new release was when the raven got delayed forever, because NARC and placeholder ECM item.

I sense great evil ahead.


PGI is punishing me for threatening to run Trebuchets like the Fastbacks of old. It's my fault guys, sorry.

>there is no image macro for what I am feeling

And it'd use all the existing models they've already completed and we'd be giving them money. It's like...the don't want it.

I assumed everyone was going to do that, so that medium mechs would be relevant again.
