I don't know if this has been addressed if so, I apologize for not seeing it when I looked. Yet will PGI be doing refits for the original mechs to make them sleek and sexy like the new ones? Weapon hardpoints changing depending on the weapons loaded and so on. I know they managed to do so for the K2 a long while back, and have been hoping they will for the rest.

They mentioned it was on their radar, but at a much lower priority for existing mechs as they are devoting their resources to Other Things™. it's easier for them with new mechs, as they can add the meshes as a part of the construction process, but I imagine it would be a bit more work for the older chassis variants.

seen catapults getting some love, with k2 sporting extra ac-barrels accordingly for example.
I feel that up until launch this will be (along with a bunch of other stuff) done in a "might as well"-type of fashion. When there's time and nothing other pressing to do.

Yeah, keep hoping. The Dragon, one of the oldes models in the game, has yet to get multiple visible laser ports. It still shoots two lasers as if it was one. On the other hand though...it's kinda nice being underestimated.
"Ow, how cute, 2 medium lasers..." "It's actually 4, *******!!!"

Yeah it would be nice to see what crazy weapons peope put on the old guard mechs represented. I understand though why the K2 was rushed through for this change as it was kinda nessisary. Having two guass with just machine gun ports, you at a glance had no idea what it was really packing and it led to the gaussapult being very dangerous.
