Russ said he was going to talk to the Art department over the outliers (IE bad looking visual passes on Mechs like the Jager).

The community has been pretty civil about this issue and I'd just like to thank him for taking a look at it.

If we are gonna complain about the bad, we should praise the good.

Well there are enough threads about the bad.

Here is something very VERY good:

We got the fins on the zeus

[KraftySOT]

What fin?

Seriously someone at PGI needs to work on the damned collision and hit boxes...its been ruining our mechs for years.

Yea, I love that but the barrel needs some serious work.

[TyphonCh]

Thank. God (Russ)
I may sell my Jagers if those cannons remain... they are truly awful

What barrel? The right arm? Because that thing looks awesome.

[dethikeed]

I have to say, that Zeus sure is sexy. Nice work there.

As though they actually have actual"departments" and not the usual two suspects sitting down the hall who messed up the catapult, too.

[stocky0904]

Please rework those jager guns. They are way to small/short.

Lets get real, community feedback doesn't get through to the art department. Not to mean they arn't listening. But we literally don't have a route get our feedback into their hands.

No, the right arm is fine. In fact, it's exactly how dynamic hardpoints should look- it conforms to the shape of the original, and keeps the same feeling as it expands.

He was talking about the left arm. With the tiny tiny AC5 barrel that looks like it shoots 9mm pistol ammunition. You may have missed it because it's so small it's hard to see.

[Malleus011]

The AC/5 could use an armored 'sleeve', and the PPC/energy left arm could stand a bit of barrel too.

[Scandinavian Jawbreaker]

Russ goes to the art team

"Yeah umm... About those... Umm barrels..."

"What about them?"

"A... ummm a bit small don't you think?"

"No, we think they're just fine, is.. is there something wrong with small barrels?"

"Yeah well, you know... I have nothing AGAINST small barrels... It's just the COMMUNITY that wants BIGGER barrels on their... umm mechs, you do understand don't you?"

"... I guess.. You sure it's not just compensation?"

"Just make them bigger, will ya!"

[MeiSooHaityu]

Well, one can hope certain mechs get looked at.

I will say this though. If PGI is willing to change the Jager a couple days after the geometry pass due to user feedback, why not after months upon months for other mechs like the Catapult, Raven, etc...? PGI must really like Jagers, or they are finally tired of hearing more and more complaining.
