Semi-related I guess, but I would like to see how the HUD has progressed since we last saw it in a past update. That pic you posted reminded me about that.

Did u guys ever played mercs2?If u did!?Do u remember the jump jet`s controls don`t u?!I love`em.I wish i could have`em on my nova cat! ;D ;D ;D ;D
Sometime ago as a teen i messed with the game`s files in and somehow i managed to have a flying panther all over the maps and performing manoeuvres and flying in supersonic speeds.The only problem was to land the mech.I could land it if i knew what the heck am i doing to the game files.After i failed the landing issue my pc flew over my window. ::) ::)It`s sick!Anyway i would like mwll to finish it!I wish they could!What do u think?

Hell NO!

The idea that you can jump on a mech and 'hack' it from the outside is ridiculous.

No one said ANYTHING about hacking.....
Reading is your friend :P

He said it would be cool to hijack the mech, and rip off the pilot's head, not steal it.

And while that ...... might.... be cool (not really imo) i think it would be better for BA to just do what they're planned to:
Strap a bomb to the cockpit and run the fook away! :P
its much more evil that way >:P

Ok.  I had a sudden awful vision of MechAssault 2.    Fun in its own way, but not Mechwarrior as we know and love it.

I still think the more we have elementals and footsoldiers attacking Mechs, the more we get away from what's at the core of Mechwarrior.

And that's not a good thing.

still this is a combined arms game, there trying to go beyond just mechwarrior. your going to want BA and tanks about as much as mechs.

You can use the claw to latch onto a mech/vehicle and use another button to damage the mech/vehicle with the claw while latched onto it (forget where I read this but I'm about 90% sure it was from a Dev's post).

So if you jumped and grabbed onto the mech's front windshield you would definitely be doing cockpit damage with the claw. An animation with you ripping the pilots head off would be kind of redundant/stupid though.

This does mean you can latch onto a friendly mech/vehicle for a ride though. Lots of ineffective but funny tactics coming to mind...

Atlas with the other 15 players on the pilots team hooked on its back hidden until in close combat...

Jumping on a friendly ASF's windshield if hes being a douchebag...

All while listening to Yakity Sax.

Jump on cockpit

Plant demo charge

Much cooler and realistic IMHO!

are you joking? Battlearmor and especially elementals jump all over mechs and destroy them in the fiction all the time, thats what elementals DO.

If you mean mechwarrior as in just the PC games, I think its good that theyre moving away from them. I want a true battletech game, not just a game with mechs.

Yes, MULTIPLE POINTS (i.e. more than 5) elementals will do nasty things to a mech, but a single or pair of elementals should not be able to do a whole lot to a mech.
