Takahashi is just giving more details on Yanase and Mugitani's contributions on the project. He mentions that Yanase is famous for his work on Gundam 00, and that he recalls that he joined the project around the time Kotobukiya's Frame Arms model kits were announced. His request for Yanase was to design the Dolls in the game to mechs which can transform into multiple different vehicle types from single convertible base frames.
He then talks about Mugitani. Apparently he'll be handling the entire design line for "a certain faction" in the game. He's being sort of vague, but he says that he requested him to join the project because in all of Japan he feels that this is something only Mugitani can design. He remembers first meeting him for this project at a coffee shop in Tachikawa, and he's very pleased that each time he gets designs back from him, they are really detailed. Apparently we can also look forward to his designs of "sexy battle suits" for some troops.

This is indeed relevant to my interests.

Oh dear. Lol
Well, if he designs a KOS-MOS type character for Tanaka to redesign in his style, I'm all for it.

Oh boy, ha ha.
Why am I imagining some sort of sci-fi Amazone tribe for this? Would fit the "sexy battle suits" part.

Im expecting xenoblade spoilers:
mecha fioras, mecha fioras everywhere
More likely something more like KOS-MOS I think. The way he talks about Mugitani's design scope, it certainly sounds a lot like what they did for Xenosaga. One designer works on the "normal" mech stuff which is shown early in the game and in the trailers, while another designer is responsible for the more advanced designs which become more frequent as the story opens the world up more. That's what it sounds like to me.

Thanks for the translations again.
I'm wondering what the multiple vehicle types from base frames means? We've seen so far a tank and multiple motorcycle transformations but for both it seemed like the primary transformation.
My interpretation is that there is a base doll design to all units that is further modified to allow transformations. I wonder if you'll be able to get a jet modification or more probable that speed would be too much and we'll be restricted to general flight mode.
Also neat shutout to Gundam 00. I dream there'll be a mech like one of Tieria's with
.
As for Coco I wonder if the white furred lady with the purple face veil from the E3 trailer is what he's talking about. It's hard to get a looked at her uniform but it is slick.

Yeah, I'd be surprised if there wasn't some sort of upgrade system for the Dolls (maybe even various modules with different specs -- battle focused / speed focused, etc...).
I mean, it IS a RPG after all. Quite looking forward to hearing more about this; I certainly am not a "mecha otaku", but I do like mechs in general.

So it's basically a Xenoblade x Custom Robo game? Sweet.

BLADE has a building, it seems to be their "police" or military defense force type thing. I think Elma is part of it and is basically recruiting your PC. At least that's what I gathered from the E3 stuff.

I love this new embrace of twitter fan interaction. Getting new small updates on the status of the development helps keep the hype alive. Next step: pictures!
a lot of LCL has been spilt over that.
Nothing beats the plug suit in terms of sexiness.

I probably wouldn't follow this thread heavily as I did for Smash Bros, but I'm definitely hyped for Xenoblade Chronicles X.
I need to finish Xenoblade Chronicles soon as possible but Smash U really sidetracked my progress.

The mech in the xenoblade promo picture is pretty sexy
Dem clouds.
My wild imagination is making my brain to see Bionis and Mechonis in those clouds (with the sword and all lol!).
I'm crazy I know...
EDIT:
LOL! Didn't see it, thank you!
did you see the first page?
I don't want to get more hyped.
Be still, my heart.
I'm pretty excited for any possible online co-op, but I also loved XBC, so I'm fine either way. I just know form that last thread that some people overreacted to the word "online", so I hoped this would calm them down a bit.

I suppose that BLADE building is the tower with a percentage on it in the trailer then. Hmmm.. That is interesting

Yea I think in one of the videos there was a shot where you could see them walking into it or something and it said BLADE above the entrance. Not entirely sure without rewatching everything^^

I'm in love with that mech design. I hope they're highly customizable.

Everything about this game (besides the faces) is so appealing to me.
Staying out of the import impression thread and waiting for localization is going to destroy me.

I really hope someone makes some model kits or at least figures of the mechs in this game. I'm still bitter, even after all these years, at there never being any for Xenogears mechs.
I can live with the faces, but if the armor design is as terrible as Xenoblade's... well, maybe that will make the faces look better by comparison.
