Yeah, the original name "NotQuiteAwesome" didn't play well with focus groups, so they stuck with K2 instead

Don't get me wrong, the K2 is a solid variant, but for me the K2 has always taken back seat to the C1 and C4, because for me the Catapult always said-

"Missiles...glorious clouds of missiles...".

The Catapult is definitely known for it's missiles...and rightfully so.

I am happy that such a cool mech has a direct fire option though.

Hmm...I wonder if it will be in the game then? I don't think the game will go to 3050, and if it did, a player wouldn't get much time to use it. Maybe it was just used for the promotional images.

MW5 runs 3025-3049
High speculation is that MWO2 will pick up the timeline for 3049-3067
