Lol, the SH is huge. All the other mechs seem to be well sized, though, even the Locust.

and yet, it´s huge, and has a hunch. And has been tough as nails when I drive mine

Would I like it smaller? For sure. Has it made any real difference being big? Haven´t seen it.

Go figure

I'm bloody curious for sure. All the PHX mechs I have driven so far are strangely tough, IMO.

same here, I even lived longer than I expected in a locust.

I have a suspicion on the SHD hawk ( mean I know it's big), I thinking the CT is a bit bigger than i first imagined.

If they have learned from past CT hitbox issues, I doubt there will be as much to worry about as people think. Still, I'm reluctant to surrender my Blackjack, which is nice and small, for a Shadowhawk which is sized like a large heavy or small assault.

I will say that when Phil and the gang drove their SHs in the PGI Twitch stream this afternoon, they actually did fairly well despite the fact that they wandered all over the map. The SH seems to be durable, especially with a standard engine, for the moment. Maybe that will change when people learn what to shoot at.

They learned from the horrible Jenner CT. The CT that sticks out of the Locust is protected directly on its sides all the way to the cockpit with the side torsos. All of the Mechs have the crotch CT though unfortunately.

Thanks for that Fup. The battlemaster looks a tad big when you consider it weighs the same as a Stalker, and the Shadowhawk could be a bit on the large side.

It's not that the BLR is big, but rather that the STK is far too tiny for how much it weighs.

Am I wrong in thinking that you could mistake the Shadow Hawk for a Highlander? The Trebuchet was in that category a while ago.

Was? Pretty sure it still is.

Battlemaster does appear to have a significant head hitbox crisis, other than that, I like it.

Shadowhawk feels like this to me:
