Hint - look at the two red circles.


...People aren't getting it so let me spell it out: Guy had his shoulder shot out - yet still had an arm.

Your highlander only has 2 ppcs.

[zraven7]

Oh, that's the new "Hovering Arms" mod. keeps em on after your shoulder has been blown out. MC only, of course.

Next month, they're releasing mech-sized flak jackets!

[El Bandito]

Gauss is on the Right arm of Heavy Metal BTW. Therefore there is nothing wrong with it being there.

[Jasen]

I've had that happen a bunch in a ppc stalker...

Never bothered with a bug report. They don't do **** with em... They're still busy spending 2 weeks on a forum post.

[Doctor Smiley]

Well I was gonna say what is wrong is he is another PPCheese and Gauss Rifle winner

Really? But its 2 PPCs are and they are still showing up as good to go. So either way its an issue

[DaZur]

COOL!

Stealth Armor...

1. Your in the Heavy Metal with PPCs, thats whats wrong right there. People do not effing understand that mech is NOT MADE FOR PPC'S!!!!! The HM can't use them due to the hand actuator blocking out the 3rd one, which is an extra 10 damage you are now not dealing. You are now only working with a 20 damage arm, not a 27 damage or 31.8 damage arm. Basically your just nearfing yourself. Oh and you forgot your missiles, ya, you are running with HALF OF A MECH.

2. This is nothing new, its a strange bug that dosn't blow off your arm if you lose your torso too quickly.

Shhh, he was on a roll.

[SovietArmada]

A lot of you seem to be missing the point, his left torso has been blown off yet his arm is still attached and the weapons on that arm are fully functional.

This has been a bug that has been present for about a month now, I've had my Stalkers torso blown off before and my arm still attached to the mech with all it's weapons usable.

[Gallowglas]

I've played a few thousand matches and I have never had this happen.

[Corvus Antaka]

i like it. we see too much side torso stripping because it takes the arm out. maybe PGI should make this a feature.

[NovaWasp]

I've had this happen to me. I even got a kill with my disembodied AC20.

I call it Rayman mode.

[Tennex]

its happened several times before.

i though thtis was intended. like if you shoot out the torso theres a chance of retaining the arm. is this not the case?

[Monky]

I believe it's a '1 hp left' scenario. Shooting it again will relieve the body of the arm.

It is his Right Torso, as very clearly labeled by the R in the paper-doll. I know a lot of people get caught up with how to read those things, but really... it says it all right there.
