Yeah, it sort of feels so, but we'll get used to the bars. I remember playing sturmovik I could not fly the ME-109 becouse the cockit covered half of the screen but in time I didnt even notice it ;) We'll see.

For comparison purposes I recreated the screenshot with a Jenner to see how the size differences look.

It is actually a bit larger than I thought, but it is smaller than a Jenner.

Regular version shown from behind.

Phoenix version show from front.

You can tell by the Phoenix version having bigger arms that drop down.

Cockpit looks a bit cramped. But then again it is very small and the linked photo is on the default FOV.

It's small! I almost didn't recognize the Spider in the picture because I've never seen one from any perspective except above!

I will be interested to see how people make use of the Locust. Better be dang fast...

It looks good ;)


AH! As much as I love seeing the screenshots it makes me want the Locust even more B) a hard 12 days of waiting are ahead...

I'm also really excited, if I understand the engine raising to 190, that the Locust will be the first mech to break the 150, or low 151/2 can't recall exactly since I'm not in a Jenner cockpit atm.

Expanding upon your work... Commando added in- not sure if I got the camera angle right, but I like what I see.

If they follow the pattern established so far:

The REAL question is:

Will regular variants of the Locust go on sale for MC on tuesday.?

Now that is a funny puzzlier

Are you kidding? Of Course they are going to be MC only the first week. Can you see any (financial) reason for them NOT to do that?
