I don't see low slung weapons as being the problem. Rather the problem with the Awesome is that it does absolutely nothing better than the Stalker. There needs to be hardpoint size limitations. A Stalker should not be able to mount more PPCs than an Awesome because an Awesome is supposed to be THE PPC mech. When it comes to boating PPCs no mech should be better at it then the Awesome, and sadly that isn't the case.

Why shouldn't a STK be able to mount more PPCs than an awesome? Can't think of a single reason, even non sense ones like TT ones, lore or previous MW games. I got nothing.

Weapons that hang low arnt the problem.. a lot of it is what spot you take on the map. Personally i wish the atlas had a groin mounted AC20 and would do the pelvic thrust every time i fire. But oh well..

Over all though it comes down to where you sit bro. Yes you have to expose more but that is always going to be the problem. cant really do much to change that tho :s

It should be able to, however your MW:LL game has an awesomer Awesome (its hitboxes are better, looks more classic) and there is a heat threshold (good job to you and the other devs). The Awesome isn't very awesome here.
