Your mech choice. Light, Medium or Heavy_

I am currently split, I choose light but I am not so sure. I like the chicken legs but at first glance I didn't like the torso, and with the heavy mech I kinda like the torso but don't like the human feet. But after a while I started liking both, I like the torso of the light mech and the legs of the heavy mech.
I would like the medium mech to have chicken legs, and possible a cooler torso, but as for now I really like the light mech.

Are you asking which we prefer in appearance or what you think we'll play as_ I loved what Chris said last night about the light mech in the g4 video. Fast with all your points in defense_ That sounds like a lot of fun.

Anyway as far as I know this is sadly a medium mech :_ ;

Hope we will see more mechs for each weight class to choose from, I usually play with medium mechs but I really don't like medium mech here. It needs wider and thicker hips and legs or simply smaller torso.
About light mech I don't have any opinion, it looks rather normal but I didnt get a chance to take a good look at it .

Will be interesting to see how teams pick up their choices before the action down there. Three different mech classes are going to open lots of tactics as well as strategies. Very excited!

It'll be hard to coordinate things with such fast paced action but who knows lol

I'm pretty sure the picture you showed is the heavy mech, and from all the interviews I've heard and read the medium one wasn't revealed. But I don't know, I might have been wrong all the time. We will see though.

I'm pretty sure I've heard Khang say it in person, but this is what I got with a google search:
"There will be three builds to chose from: light, medium and “mechâ€, the latter wasn’t shown as it is still being developed. The light body type will be a fast moving mech which can jump and dash around quickly and using little fuel, however it will be the weakest Mech of the bunch and can be destroyed easily if found standing still. The “mech†built wasn’t shown in action, but it will be a slow but heavily armoured Mech, most useful when defending a position, but also a valuable offensive character. The medium build will be a balance between the other two classes, balancing speed and power."

but since my roll in most games is either Tank or The-Guy-With-The-Big-Ass-Gun ... it's a fairly safe to asume i'm going to roll as a heavy

I can't decide between those two without seeing them both in action and I generally dislike heavy mechs in games as you need proper support to make them work since having high armor is pointless if the enemy team decides to all aim for the "slow" one.
That being said, perhaps I'm wrong and the heavy mechs are kick ass in this game.
For now, I'll hold judgement until new gameplay videos come out showing the different types of mechs.

I picked Medium for the expected balance of speed and armour. Points can then be distributed to increase speed, with the benefit of better armour than a light, or extra defence so it tips towards the heavy end but with more speed!

Actually it kinda does, minus the head, and I actually really liked the design of Robo-Cain, but I suppose I should hold my judgment until they release more info on the Heavy
