OK, so i stumbled upon this on the MWLL boards.
Who had stumbled upon it on the CBT boards. https://twitter.com/InnerSphereNews They have been releasing puzzle parts of a bigger image. The image of a Mech. Which we experts have, by now, come to tentatively call an Atlas (OMG SQUEE!) Furthermore, the Bottom of the bigger Picture has some writing on it, that indicates a release date maybe(OMG PLZ!) The image used for comparing the hidden Mech: http://i.imgur.com/NMjPpl.jpg The image as complete as possible right now: http://i.imgur.com/lgYGL.jpg Link to the CBT board which does the re-assemblimg of the snippets: http://www.classicbattletech.com/forums/in...,11198.330.html Don't really know who did the right image in the comparsion one . . |

I was thinking more like, "Have you been ill? I know you love mechwarrior. Should I call a doctor?"

Well, at least Smith & Tinker are doing something.
Also, I think we're going to need bigger guns. Bigger fraggin' guns! |

"Only played mechwarrior 2, given it is free is 4 worth downloading to play?"
Pfft! Hell yes. I liked the mechanic of juggling mechs/weapons/availability - starting out with the Dragoons Vs that of the Highlanders, that little bit of flavour. Liked Mechwarrior, loved Mercs, thought 3 was disappointing and 4 (storyline) a trifle overwrought...good battles though. (So, save sister or loot the ammo depot. Yeah, like THAT's a hard choice....<later> "Oh crap, I ditched my whiney sister for this! Joker can go hit on co-eds at some bumfuck backwater training facility after we win...") 4 Mercs works soo much better, less bitchy whinging, more Solaris action! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) And it's free! I would like it though if you could write in a subroutine that allowed ammo/coolant useage to reflect on mech handling. I mean, after you've expended all the munitions, I'd like a mech to handle lighter... -Tir Getting stuck between a bunch of Calliopes hurts...but not as much as having your wingman stupidly reverse into you and go critical against your weak back armour. |

The MW4 Mercs Free Release also incorporates all of the MEchs from MW4 Vengeance, Black Knight and the MechPacks i think.
PLUS several others that MekTek modded in. PLUS elementals. PLUS More Weapons. Also, if you have a computer that can handle it, try and get your paws on Crysis Wars and download the MWLL Mod. You can Play Mechs, Tanks, ASF, Hovercraft, VTOL, Artillery and frigging Annoying little Pest Elementals too! |

Okay, why is the Warhammer worried about a Jenner? The pilot oughta be thinking, "Eat this, gnat!" And what happened to the female computer voice from the previous MW's?

Because the Jenner is one of the most heavyly armed light mechs and can out dance a warhammer in it's sleep to pepper the thin backside with it's considerable arsenal?
As for the Voice, no idea . . QUOTE @russ_bullock: Okay #MechWarrior fans have a great weekend. Keep spreading the word on @InnerSphereNews big news coming down the pipe! < 2yrs promise

Yeah, but the Jenner is jumping.... That makes the Jenner a wonderful target. A single PPC shot will burn off the armor for any location it hits. The Jenner can't take two PPC shots from a Warhammer, let alone the alpha strike the Warhammer could have delivered in the trailer.

That's one thing I'd like them to put in the games, a little bit of balance between the mechs, or at least a reason to use something smaller than an assault for everything. I love the lighter mechs, but they've always felt so useless in the PC games. Admittedly, I've only a clear recollection of 3&4 because my copy of two is annoyed at my modern operating system. Were there non-Solaris missions in those where Lights were useful?

Actually, MW4 Mercs had one specific Mission for a REALLY light and fast Mech . .
You had to sneak into an enemy base and stand there for some time next to a building to scan it . . And then get the hell out of there . . Otherwise? Pretty much no . . MW3 is a bit more difficult to say, because you had FULL Customization in that one. And you CAN build some really horrible rapey light mechs, if you know how to . . |

Well, as long as the Atlas was the only 100t Mech, sure.
Now it's just another Lyran Scout Mech . . |
