only way it would work is on a planet with tiny gravity.

you would also need a really efficient fuel source

you would also need a reason to have mechs in the first place

Laughing at the idea that you would call a vehicle where the pilot sits in an open glass cockpit a "tank"

>battlesuits nips call mechs
>mechs
lmao think again.
NGE only acceptable humanoid mecha with muh retarded oversized guns because they arent mechanical.

Bipedal mechs are fantasyland but could there ever be a place for spidertanks or something like a giant version of the Boston Dynamics doggo?

spider mechs could deal with rough terrain better than tank tracks, without the stability issues of a two leg mech

fuel efficiency would be a disaster though, and moving at high speed seems impossible

>realistic
>mech
I just want more sanic speed armored core with loads of guns and parts

we already have mechs irl but they are used in forestry to traverse without damaging the ground.

We will propably never have anything heavier than powerarmor humans with legs as the complexity, weight and lack of any benefits vs massive drawbacks won't make them viable for combat.

Construction and civvie shit? Yeah sure.

It's the same reason why you have western animefags that go on about how the only mecha shows you should watch are Evangelion and TTGL, since all the other ones are dumb toy commercials. For some reason they're fine with guys with wire propelled jet packs fighting 30 meter tall giants and monkey aliens who scream loud to dye their hair yellow/blue/silver, but the robot suit is too unrealistic for them.

Stop acting retarded to try and defend your retarded armchair general "plans" for why mechas are anything but a money sink.

There is no answer beyond mechanized units are at a greater danger in urban combat, and a unit's usefulness can't be measured by how it could be hypothetically disabled.

You cannot beat tank treads when it comes to mobility. MAYBE at best a missile boat. No realistic mech would be able to withstand recoil forces without artistically tumbling itself backwards. And even if you could, good luck finding material that wouldn't collapse on it's own weight.
Western mechs might "look" realistic in contrast to Eastern ones, but it really doesn't matter because both would be inferior to either Jets or Tanks at their respective roles.
Mecha will always be science fantasy, not science fiction.

Unless, of course, you're trying to go over something that's taller than half a meter.

Neither boats nor planes nor firearms were ever designed out of a fantasy appeal to look cool. Mechafags are like if Da Vinci's tank prototype spun at 300 RPM to deflect projectiles and fired hydraulic javelins out of firing ports.

>No realistic mech would be able to withstand recoil forces without artistically tumbling itself backwards.
The fuck? Did you know that recoilless rifles are a thing? Do you think jetflighters tumble uncontrollably around when firing missiles or guns?
Stupid motherfucker. A whole thread full of stupid motherfuckers patting themselves on the back over why youtube told them mechs are unrealistic.

To answer OP, i'd make something that's the brainchild of ChromeHounds, Aurora4X, Kenshi and SolidWorks

Mechs are made of various parts, whether they be arms or legs or heads or shit, and those parts are in turn made of smaller parts, joints, pistons, electronics, armor, myomers, the works.
With the proper equipment you can rip a mech apart and sell its pieces as spare parts, or replace the busted hydraulics with a spanking new set and sell it for more money, or if you're cheeky, take the best stuff for yourself, cobble the rest together and sell that while you use the more pristine stuff to slowly build your engine of destruction.

Each part is first thoroughly simulated in the physics engine in order to model it's behavior without resulting in the game slowing down to -1fps the second you take it for a spin, then this is repeated for bigger and bigger assemblies till it results in the mech proper.

Moreover, different manufacturer=different implementations so you might have to design and build fluid lines, wiring, electronics and simple programs to translate stuff from one part to another, after all, you can't expect a torso belonging to a armored groundpounder to work natively with the a-grav skids of a hovermech

Of course, you can buy parts and services from NPCs if you prefer to blow stuff up rather than playing My Summer Car: Even More Autism Edition, but they cost a pretty penny (though since you'll also spend more time getting paid it balances out so both doing actual missions, playing Mechanical Engineering 101 and Sleazy Car Dealership Simulator are viable options to play the game if you so choose)

You're legitimately arguing that bone and muscle are stronger than steel, tungsten, and titanium? Do you think we use nanotech to make fucking skyscrapers?

>>fucking rocks a combat engineer can clear in 15 minutes
How do they exactly do that though? Do they just slap C4 on them? Dig them out?
Also, i'd wager that they are part of a defense and not just left there alone, so any engineer would have to weather enemy fire as they remove them but i'm no tactician

Ironically, realism fags have a profound misunderstanding of recoil.

Jets have thrust counteracting that recoil you drooling retard. Guns like the Gau-8 and 105mm howitzers are centrally mounted for this exact reason. Do a google search before you spout your retard MGS baby fantasies like you know any shit whatsoever.

Most jets that employ Gatling weaponry also fly fairly fast, though. The recoil force of the weapon pales in comparison to it's inertia. Plus, if you take a look at OP's pic , that looks like a cannon. You are comparing a fast moving jet to a stationary, unwieldy bi-pedal mech.

reboot chromehounds

Use them for tanks, problem un-solved

but the GAU-8 is mounted off center

>There is literally no reason whatsoever to produce large scale mecha, ever.
You're just unimaginative as fuck

What makes you think I don't know that, dumbass? Because you think I'm as fucking stupid as you are? You're the one making retarded statements like "A gun would make an object tumble around, out of control, due to recoil!" fucking moron.
You think the basic jets and turbines on a jetplane is more stable than something standing on the fucking ground? You're a dumber motherfucker than I thought.

>tank drives into one
>stops
>mech steps on one
>falls over, crew has to bail

You say this now, but when the giant aliens come invading, I'll be laughing at you.

Wow here's a real showcase of the mechafag's intelligence. Notice how there's no actual arguments here you're just rephrasing the argument as a question and going "wowwww you are so dumb dummmy". Maybe when you don't have to focus brainpower on making sure you breathe through your nose you'll be able to sit at the big boys table.

>The recoil force of the weapon pales in comparison to it's inertia.
There are many things that pale in comparison to the inertia of a moving plane, but have an effect on it nevertheless. If a speeding jetplane can manage to counteract the opposing forces of firing a weapon, I think a ground-based weapons system can handle it.

Metals tend to buckle because they're often malleable, and that is not very ideal if you want to retain shape. Compare most metal to a giant log of wood and test for pressure with, say, a digging crane. Also, bone isn't exactly weak either, and they're hollow so they're lighter in comparison.

I didn't say they had no effect. If you could fire them for long enough, it would stall the plane out of the sky, but that's not possible. They're often fired in bursts and do slow the plane a few single digit miles each time.

There's no way to make mechs realistic, they're stupidly impractical. And I say this as someone who loved Mechwarrior growing up.

What said is correct. The only "realistic" approach is to make it power armor, something similar to Mechwarrior's elementals. They should be all roughly human sized and differ from power armor in that they allow for missile platforms and other large weaponry.

Why do you people think you're megabrains because you've figured out that mechs aren't practical when we're inhabiting one planet? Most well known science fiction universes that have mechs or mecha are universes where humans live all over space.

I meant to reply to the guy you were replying to.

Attached: 1561445981033.gif (300x169, 2.67M)

You don't even understand the universe you're invoking. Mechs make complete sense in the battletech universe you fucking casual.

If you realistically want an effective mech, you need to think what you will actually gain from switching to legs.
What it needs to be is a copy of a human being, increased in size. It needs the same agility, ability to crouch and assume prone possition. Using cover instead of super heavy armor and flexibility in combat. That's where the advantages over a tank would be - the ability to fight like infantry, except with 10 times the firepower and durability.
Making something like shit in OP's pic or in Mechwarrior makes absolutely no sense because you gain nothing from that but an unbalanced, easily crippled and neutralized abomination with shape that's hard to armor and protect properly - jesus christ, the surface that needs to be layered with armor on such a thing would make it weigh 3x times as much as a whole tank of the same size, and all of it sinking into the ground because legs.

Because actuation is hard. Humans evolved the equivalent of quantum computers to solve the problem of bipedal movement, not even trolling.

Even IF the technology existed, it still wouldn't be cost effective compared to the alternatives. Hovercrafts are a more likely candidate for making tanks that can cross difficult terrain.

Fucking this

Make it a third person tactical shooter with destructible buildings as cover, a limb-based damage system for mobile suits, and use a cell-shaded artstyle for the look, so you don't have to worry too much about granular detail in the characters and environment.

People who say mechs make no sense in any context are the fedora tippers of video games.

Because planebros have Macross. Tankfags think they have nothing which is why they are bitter, but they aren't looking hard enough.

>In a way, myomer is the reason BattleMechs are the supreme war machines they are; the myomer is an extremely efficient and load-bearing form of locomotion, but cannot be used in a wheeled, tracked, or airborne platform due to the nature of its operation. As such, even though BattleMechs present much greater surface area that must be armored, and much more structure to be carried, myomer still allows them to bear more weapons and armor per-ton than any other form of armored fighting vehicle.

Does making 60 meter tall mechs make sense for us right now? No. Would it make more sense when war is happening constantly across thousands of occupied solar systems? Yes.

Why put myomers in a vehicle that already works fine without them dumb capellen

LONDON

A research and development simulator where a team of engineers have to develop a mechasuit, giant robot, or giant pilotted vessel.
Becuase there is either a giant alien or giant monster that threatens to destroy earth and or humanity.

The kicker
you are actually a delusional stem student.
Mech stuits are stupid and wildly impractical, and would never conceavably work unless due to mechanical stress scaled up to such a xbox heug size.
The minigame or trying to manipulate or slow down the giant threats progress is really a psychological allegory of you trying to overcome your delusions.
Which in the end you cant, if you let the monster loose you loose your mecha suit.
If you develop the suit you become inoculated and insulated against any outside threats to your delusion.
And you become forever trapped and then controlled by your delusion.
WOULD YOU LIKE TO PLAY AGAIN?

>Mech jumps over the teeth
>has the same problems of the tanks plus having the risk of falling face first over the teeth and being an easier target for the enemy.

I unironically love chicken leg mecha.

Buy Battletech and install the Roguetech mod for it

It's unironically more in depth and adds more to the game than TLW does for XCOM. It's made by a trans girl too, so double autism energy is put into the statistics/making it like the tabletop.

Tankies think because they haven't thought the problems through nobody has

Because it would work better. Way better in fact.

Why don't more mecha fiction go with repurposed construction mechs?

I couldn't speculate on that. Just make sure comstar doesnt find out about your idea or you might find the comguard knocking on your door.

So when is it coming out bros?

Why doesn't anyone make a tanks VS mechs game yet?

There are some that do, it's just that mech that can fite with guns get more attention

Can tanks maneuver in space?
Don't think so.

The thing is that whatever clever solution a mech has, it can and will be given to the tank as well because they have the same role. For a mech to exist without being shadowed by a tank or a plane you'd need an excuse like the one pacific rim gives you at the start of the movie.

That would be ridiculously difficult to maintain. Keeping tanks in working order is hard in the field imagine trying to train average IQ american soldiers how to repair fucking robotic spider legs or how many unique parts just one leg would take.

Name me some, please.

>love the dieselpunk aesthetic
>hate strategy games
Man I hate being a brainlet.

The mechs in Avatar are what I consider plausible if you want to consider modern day tech. Anything larger than that and we're running into some serious roadblocks that would need very special power sources and materials.

It would function as a utility vehicle for infantry squads, doing all purpose workloads, like clearing rubble, carrying heavy stuff and traversing difficult and unpredictable terrain. As well serving as fire support.

No tank cannons. A heavy machine gun/vulcan and a grenade launcher with a flexible array of armaments, lethal and non-lethal, would be enough.

EDF 5 uses that idea. The barga was a failed construction loader that was a waste of resources until the aliens came.

C-can you pilot it?

>they have the same role
No they don't. The smartest universes with mechs understand that the best thing about mechs is their versatility. Can you drop a tank from space? Can you effectively use a tank behind enemy lines for long term guerilla warfare? Can you use tanks in a vacuum?

it's not glass it's dynaweave nanokevlar

This is the single biggest problems with the idea of giant bipedal mechs

Yeah, you can have a fucking smackdown with Godzilla in it.

Yes. Its as awesome as you expect it to be. and you can use it to punch God in the face.

sarna.net/wiki/Kiso

The Kiso was created as a "Command" Construction Vehicle for large planetary construction projects in the Draconis Combine. Built in the middle of the Golden Years of the Star League, the vehicle is intended to allow an on-site supervisor to run his machine, while being able to access planetary networks to gain permits, communicate to workers, and multitask other assorted projects while supervising 'Mech-related manual tasks.

Yes to all of that because a tank can use all the technology the mech has.

Because they haven't decided to make a new SRW OG anime with Gunleon in it yet.

Doesn't apply underwater or in space, where most mecha action takes place.

>tanks can do all that cause I said so
You're not actually thinking about this so why should I continue responding to you?

Quick, post your face the day we have actual combat mechs in the field literally fucking tanks in the ass (literally!)

Patlabor kinda counts

You wouldn't. Because realistic and mech don't belong in the same sentence.

>Titanfall
Yikes
Someone post the interview where the devs say titans are not mechs and that mech are a dumb irrational concept they want to distance themselves with

mechs are giant fursuits for sifi nerds

Ok, i'll tackle your idea point by point then:

>Can you drop a tank from space?
Yes, in drop pods, or if their armor is though enough, they would just need asome retro boosters or a parachute. Just like a mech.
>Can you effectively use a tank behind enemy lines for long term guerilla warfare?
No, but neither the mech, because it needs way more resources for manteinance/operation and has a bigger profile.
>user you use tanks in a vacuum?
Yes, give it the reaction control system that the mech has and done.

Like i said before, whatever advantage the mech has it can and it will be used by a tank due to their similar roles. The only exception to that rule is if they are avatar small or pacific rim big.

The entire gun is off center specifically so the firing barrel is inline with the body.

steel battalion
the game costs like $200 back then, no idea why

It looks like it has no suspension whatsoever.

its a tank you could knife to death
i feel you brothrr

Why do you retards always bring up recoiless rifles? Just use fucking rockets.

to be fair, underwater is better for the mech because the recoil will get absorbed by the water. In space on the other hand, well the mech is fucked.

There's MAV but is apparently dead

No thanks. At least post good jap mecha, it's not like there isn't any.

isnt that just a leopard 2a5?

It's closer to a Leclerc than a leopard

A "realistic" mecha game would probably be too similar to a tank game.

>its not realistic so stop liking it!!!!1
go play your sims realismfags, I'll play my mecha and have fun.
