Atlas now has customizable weapon models that swap in and out when you install a weapon.
Since the Project Phoenix mechs are coming out all at once for paying customers the fact that they're coming out each month for free players is sort of a window of opportunity for PGI. They're obviously already finished and ready for play, but since they're being dealt out one at a time there has to be some free time available for the art team guys at PGI.
I expect that the next few months will all be a Phoenix mech each month for C-bills, and then a hero of an existing mech that also means that chassis finally gets the visible weapon treatment as well.
That is my hope anyways. I don't like having some mechs have that feature and some not having it.
