Thanks, looks awesome

ChemJet was a vehicle AC/20 and not in the 3025 era on mechs original or revised, but thank you for showing some great pictures. And no I am not trying to nitpick just trying to keep it in the 3025 era and not 3040 otherwise that would start up a LosTech thread.

I find the right screenshot in the third row really interesting.
Under that Spider are the movement options displayed. Going, running and jumping I can identify. But what is the last symbol? No movemen at all, just standing still?

Edit:
Why did you use a screenshot with the old shop prices? Just a mistake or will the prices be changed again?

.. really nice pics … this would be good to see every week till it launches

Also it looks like iclorox likes ammo based rounds LOL or is he compensating for something (just kidding)

You know that’s what I was afraid of with their only being 4 v 4 I think most will be ammo based mechs … just because you know it will be a short match (most ammo weapons will give you more damage than a laser of the same weight (heart points))

I figure it is no movement. Probably every mech has to be given an order of some sort so it is there for when you feel like losing said Spider.

nice shots. I don't see CV on the Atlas, nor on the weapon shown... still under construction at the time the screenshot was taken?

I am very happy with the look of the mech bay. It confirms that critical hit slots are still in and at least very similar if not the same as TT. The graphical representations of each weapon taking up the appropriate number of slots as you drop them in is a nice way to represent it without making it look intimidating to new players, in my opinion.

Having the AI player's name reference the NAIS is also a nice touch.

I see Blue, Gold, Purple and Red colored cards. Hmm...

Can see enemy hitpoints.

Engagement by turn 2.

“There’s gonna be different levels of packs — different theme packs — depending on the type of promotion [running] that month,” said Romanchuk. “And people are able to buy this and add to their collection of MechWarrior stuff to play with.”

OMG... The collecter in me is screaming!!!

Yeah, but I figured they'd just go the MegaMek route and let you pick a hex and inform you of how many MP it will take to get there. Click a button to make it a jump move. End turn to commit. It's an easy and logical implementation. Initially I thought it was just more of an informative icon but the zero-movement is a bit puzzling. ('Why, yes, not moving does cost zero MP!')

Oh, maybe you click the icon and it highlights hexes you can get to with that movement mode. That actually does make more sense for mass-market, I suppose. There's probably proof of this in old gameplay videos that I vaguely recall.

(edit to remove evidence of me forgetting that in MM it's blue for walk and yellow for run... )

Insert Matrix parody here. 'I need AC/20s. Lots of AC/20s.'

The Mechbay and STAC stuff is new, but how is the rest of the screenshots "new" when they all come from the first teaser footage?

[Himack]

I'm really looking forward to this... Even more now. :-)

[Wildstorm]

Mech bay looks sweet! I can't wait to get in there and customize some guys.
