so good to finally see a REAL Clan Assault mech being added to the roster for MWLL. The MKII is a joke sold to the Inner Sphere, I look forward to piloting that blood asp many times  ;D

Yes, didn't you here they are making a TC version.  Hels Gate looks great, I wish I had the time and patience for making map that look that good, y'alls skyboxes are getting better and better with every release. 

oooooooooooooh, Blood Asp!!  Those are some fine legs you have there, mind if I take one off of you? :P

I suck!! But WE are AWESOME.  We started a unit.  What's that?!  YOU WANNA TOUCH MY UNIT?!! :P ^^12thVR Recruitment Page(clickthepic) ;)

And also a small glimpse of TC_Sandblasted!

Amazing! Hels Gate looks particularly unique, especially that skybox, is there any chance that we can bust the smaller crystals?

Can't believe the speed of that Blood Asp btw, it might just be an Assault mech fast enough for me to want to use ;p

Both new mech and map look awesome. I can't wait to run around on "Hels Gate", it looks just beautiful!

And regarding information number three: A new game mode? That would be "everybody on his own", right? That will be interesting!

Damn, i will have trouble sleeping until your update comes.

Thanks a lot for all your hard work!

PS: Please, no 3rd person. Playing the game with a joystick is hard enough as it is, the mouse-users would have another huge advantage in 3rd person. :-\

Eh, I knew it was happening, but to actually see it makes me twitchy.

Third person views are only available in our development build.  We use them for debugging animations and checking clipping issues.  It's not usable for in-game play though because, one: we still have the issue of weapons firing to reticule center regardless of orientation, and two: not intended gameplay design.

Oh well.  It does make sense since I don't know how it would affect gameplay balance letting everyone have a perfect view of the battlefield at all times.

Dont think so...so do dont get all wet and stuff ;)

The Animation looks real nice and stompy, giving it correct aggressiv attitude when moving....just RAWR.
And that map....*drool*...

*Puts napkin back on after changing in quite rapid succession*
Im gonna stare a bit at that video and contend myself for the next inevitable small waiting time^^

And again I am just able to have these words for you, dear DEV´s :
Lovely, beautiful, oh I am so insanely craving for it.
<3 to you DEVS

It's awesome....and expensive....and if you don't already notice, its left and right torsos pitch independently of its center torso (which was a bitch to get working).

Especially the Hels Gate looks awesome *-*
'any kind of discussion of randomness ALWAYS WILL EQUATE to being able to critically hit a mech's reactor by firing a micro beam laser while facing 80 degrees to the side, shooting the ground, which would cause a random explosion which would randomly crit his entire team's reactors which would randomly cause the server itself to explode which would randomly generate a strange quark which would randomly hit the earth and randomly randomness randomfapp the shit fapp random!'
