lol.... hahahaha!

As for urbanmech - it'd be a waste of resources... I mean... c'mon - you would need to create model, textures, entirely new animations (!) than test it and find out that it's just the easiest, defenseless target in the game. Than people wouldn't even bother buying it other that for the easter (paint it and you have nice easter egg)

It would only be a waste if the Osiris with ac20 is left in the game.

If the osiris is made more sane, then the urbanmech would be useful as it would have a very large cannon other tiny mech was carrying around.

And the urban mech could be cheaper than dirt.

You should able to buy 2, with the knowledge that your first one going out probably would get shot out from under you (unfortunately this would be because you fired and their failure rate is about 50%, causing catastrophic mech failure on half the mechs just by firing).
I hate Aircraft in this game, if I die from one, I leave.  I wish I could just fire back at them from a Mech.

One side note for the Hellbringer.

I mean the Summoner is coming anyway, and most parts of the Hellbringer are the same, except for the upper torso part and one arm; at least with some minor changes. 65T at 86kph = deadly awesomnes right in the face.

Actually I'm really looking forward to most Clan Mechs that are already planned like the Summoner, the Storm Crow (97kph and decent weaponry made me use it almost exclusively in MW2 and MW4 Multiplayer) and the War Hawk  except for the Kodiak and the Blood Asp, for I usually don't really use all to heavy chassis.

  • Alt. Config. B - Another close combat configuration, the B configuration of the Stormcrow carries a single Ultra Autocannon/20 as its primary weapon. This is backed up by six ER Medium Lasers. To handle the 'Mechs heat, it has three additional double heat sinks.
  • Alt. Config. A - Configured for close combat, the Stormcrow A is armed with a single LRM-20 launcher for long range capabilities allowing it to support friendly units at long range. For close combat, the 'Mech is armed with four Medium Pulse Lasers and two Streak SRM-6 launchers making it a deadly knife fighter.

I've always had a soft spot for the Kodiak ever since MW2: GBL.  But I still want my main mech... the summoner

Heh, the Hellbringer. That mech creates exactly twice the heat it can dissipate and has paper-thin armor ;D

Yep... good point. Osiris should have AC10 or even lower. AC20 is waaay too much for any light mech - this firepower is simply too much to fight with  :o it's in fact more dangerous than bushwacker what makes me feel odd...

 Love that walking monster! Haven't seen it in action since MW2:GBL. Used to play it with 3xERPPC and lots of heatsinks. Yeah, PPCs was the thing that counts back then...

To counter the nova cat, how bout bringing back the IS energy boat the Black Knight
Don't know if it will be the most popular suggestion but I'd really like to see the black knight too. 
And the Urbanmech would be nice though not high priority for the developers I doubt... It just doesn't seem right having a mech warrior game without at least one completely pointless mech :D :D :D

 Black knight!  1xPPC, 2xLBL, 4xMBL, 1xSBL for prime, all in 75 tons! BL-6b-KNT and BL-9-KNT also rocks!

 And I want my Urbie! Damh, it has a lots of armor for a 30-tonner.

I'd love to see the executioner/gladiator. Another one that'd be great would be the devastator :D

 Yeah, both are damn good mechs. Do want.

Warhawk: A more awesome Awesome. already planned.
Marauder: Coolest mech ever built. Already planned. (>for me the weirdest Mech ever built, born in a Manga...)
Rifleman: An anti-air mech. Nice addition, don't you think? (>and a real classic)
Executioner: 95 tons. Runs 86kph with MASC. Jumpjets. Need I say more?
Stone Rhino: A mech designed to hold an entire company assault. Extremely slow, but armored like hell. (>looks like a Marauder on steroids, s.a.)
Nova: Versatile and fast laserboat
Battlemaster: A classic.
Jenner: Another classic
Orion: An old design, a heavy featuring a C3 computer and NARC
Urbanmech: Something so ugly everybody will want to shoot it. The perfect distraction.
Centurion: the IS workhorse

IMO the best wish-list so far.
Yes, I really miss the 'classics'.
I only would add the Cataphract (love the design and idea behind) and the Sha Yu (The Scat for men).
And the Centurion would be really cool, but with a mechlab I don't wanna know how many 'unique' Yen-Lo-Wangs would be out there. I would have one for sure... ::)

But even more I miss Tanks! Von Luckner, DI Schmitt, J.Edgar... where the hell are you?!?

BTW: Why is nearly no one keen on a Hatchetman?! Or the Mackie?

Lies! This thing is born in a manga

The Marauder is too awesome for Robotech. We deserve him 8)

I would love the Hatchetman. Problem is, the Hatchet will be useless. No mechs beating each other up in MWLL (yet)

Ahh... the Marauder... the Manga Mech.

Yes we not only deserve it, we NEED it (luckily we will get it!)  ;D

For me it's one of the most iconic mech ever.

I love to see the 'unseen' mechs in  a BT game.... give Haramony Gold what they deserve, make the best Battletech game and put the Unseen designs in it :)
We got the Warhammer already, Marauder is coming.... so I am happy.

I'd like to see the Blackjack


In general I think we need more medium mechs at first, since there are only 3 meds for both factions so far, but 4 of any other weightclass
check the wiki
If at first you don't succeed try again, and if you don't try again, you'll be hit in the face with a shovel!

I was thinking there's need of a fourth clan, something like the Hellion or a Koshi, Dasher, or Hankyu added to the game. Personally, the Hankyu would be my pick
I'd go for Fire Falcon - something to counter the Osiris ^^

I already forgot this one. Great addition to the rooster of light mechs for sure. We need more Jade Falcon anyway. :D

Amen, in the end the middle class stuff is most fun the great symbiosis of speed and firepower. They should add some more middle class instead of 100T which most people don't even get because they don't get enough C Bills :D. So it's good for getting more people to play as well.

 :'( but I want Stone Rhino!  :'(

But seriously though - sure, medium mechs is what's needed most at the moment in the matter of mechs (aside from the fact that we need other stuff than mechs more) but still when we'll have mids done - one could add the Stone Rhino some day... just because so few MW games had it and it was really great mech. :)
