The 'Mechs built like this dont actually have a tank style torso.

They twist their hip joints and lean to literally twist, to look around.

There are some IS 'Mechs built this way too.

[StompingOnTanks]

Then how does it torso twist while moving?

[Sizzles]

Well, they can wave their arms around... but nothing beyond that.

Edit: Actually looking at some of these 'Mechs, they appear have a bearings and such in the ankle joint that allow them to pivot along the Z axis while keeping the foot on the ground for easy turns.

Mech2 the Nova had extremely limited twist.

You relied mostly on your JJ for turning.

Of course now - in Mech2 JJ also let you lauch yourself horizontal as well as simply twist around
As in - you launched the jets sideways to twist yourself with no (read ZERO) upward lift

What.

Because they pay me 5$ a month just to use it a few times a day.

I can grab Persona 4 for 15$ (counting shipping)

Think I should?

[Atlai]

Yes.

Yes.

And yes.





















Also yes.

[Alaskan Nobody]

I liked what I played of Persona 3 - but I am really not good at the social events.

One of the guides I found simply labeled them as having "obvious" answers
My autism (light as it is) says there are no obvious answers to those.

According to the description on Amazon - it is a new copy at that.
