Battletech nerds rejoice? Mechwarrior 5 being worked on?

[Vladimir]

The Timber Wolf was top class. I liked the Summoner, Hellbringer and Mad Dog as well though. I was never that keen on the big assault class mechs such as the Dire Wolf or Masakari - you get too overconfident in those. As for the IS mechs, they're basically crap and inferior in design and function. So what is there to like?

Quoted for truth.

Early Clan invasion IS tech was just too unwieldy to use on a decent weapons platform. The game designers did a good job when they created Clan tech. Powerful and compact without going overboard.
