Since I have the HBR hitbox hotfix tomorrow I might try to tweak a few others that need - will review mist Lynx and ice ferret to make sure



OP


Hitboxes thanks to PauloBR and Koniving. Thank you both for using premium time and getting shot up on a 2.5x XP weekend. Your help was greatly appreciated.

The hitboxes need fixed. Far too much CT.

Green = Front Center Torso
Blue = Side Torso, front and rear
Yellow = Head
Orange = Rear Center Torso
Purple = Arms
Red = Legs

Yeah, those front CT hitboxes in the rear are shameful. That shouldn't have gone to production.

Biggiest issue I see is the head hitbox. Anyone remembers when the phract came out and i was all Head hitbox?

Ok it was to big but nowadays head hitboxes are soooo tiny... I have something like 3 or 4 headshots since achievements, that was way more before "release" of mwo.

Great job, OP & co!


This is... I mean I can't... I don't even... what did they...

How did they not learn the lesson with previous CT crotches? They already made a huge deal about fixing the CT on the Atlas, the Awesome, etc. Then they make the same mistake with this mech? Did they just hire a lot of new people or what?

Basically, shoot in any direction on the map, and there's a 99% chance you'll hit a Hellbringer's CT.

I find it hard to believe that PGI and their so-called playtesters didn't find this hitbox thing before they pushed this **** out.

It really calls into question exactly how much testing they actually do. None at all it seems.

I'm still leveling my Hellbringer because 2.5x XP is too hard to resist, but with 4xERLL. I'm trying to treat it like a big weak medium at the moment.
