the locust looks great cockpit a little tight but its manageable. i think the cockpit is with a higher FOV so you can see more of it. perhaps if the FOV is lower it will be less noticeable.

It's with the default FOV according to Bryan on twitter.

They need to change that cockpit you can't see half the screen what the heck

From the looks of things, the standard Locust cockpits will be less obstructive.
If you look at the Phoenix Locust concept art, it has an extra roll-cage/bar-net-thing around the cockpit.

Locust looks great,. glad I bought the the Overlord pkg now. Gonna have a blast running around in that tiny beast....

yay screen shots

[C E Dwyer]

its cool looks fun, being the smallest mech your going to be looking up most the time or going eyeball to eye ball with a comando

Can feel comando pilots flexing and feeling tough now

The spider... now the locust... when will it be the flee's turn?!

Afterall it seems insects are the name of the game with broken hit detection...

The cockpit looks cool, but man is it restrictive. It will take some getting used to. I am not going 3PV.

Wait... This is a new mech. There are three pictures of it...

Half LIfe3 would be a new game, and it's the third one so...

Half Life3 is confirmed guys!

The cockpit view is way too cluttered. I guess this is their attempt to balance out a mech that is already going to have a hard time surviving by making it impossible to see as well?

Not like Valve didn't just register half life 3.. Can we stop the half life 3 confirmed jokes considering half life 3 actually has been confirmed?

Why is there 8 heatsinks on the lower right monitor cockpit image? XL200?

I think that's what they want... to force players into 3PV to use the locust... doesn't matter the motion blur and bobbing really throws me giant headaches... or the fact that means the competitive nature (if there was any) of the locust in the 12 queue is deflated...

Simply because all Kuang did was take the hud layout from another mech (that could be running the 200XL) and overlay it on the image to demonstrate how the UI overlays the cockpit structure, and that's at a stock fov of 60. I can imagine those with custom fov will be further hampered.
