I get press releases all the time, but I usually don't post them because I don't find the content terribly interesting. This stuff warrants mention.
We had heard a rumor that there'd be new content today, but that must have been a corrupt reading - what they did today was announce new content. Starting in January, we should be getting almost weekly additions to the game - mechs, maps, and gametypes. I've got some screens of the new "Hell's Kitchen" map right here, if you want to see them - in fact, I have no less than (one, two, three) four. There's more than that, but it's not in this release and I don't want my guy in there to get in trouble.
Things I can show, though, are a new mech and a variant on that mech that will be coming out - check it:
Raven (Click here for image)
(loadout may change due to balance)
Speed 42 m/s (2nd fastest Mech in the game)
Laser x 2
MachineG x 2
Defense Null Sig x 2 (the x2 means it lasts twice as long as normal)
No Jump
Corvus (Click here for image)
(loadout may change due to balance)
Speed 42 m/s
Pulse Laser x 2
Auto Cannon x 1
Defense Target Jam x 2(the x2 means it lasts twice as long as normal)
JumpJets
Something to chew on, for the time being.
