Its frustrating... Russ answered a Tweet from somebody how just say that he buy the banshee if they looking again on the design because it have 5 Finger but the concept art have 4 like it should be... Russ answered that he ask the designers.... but my tweets to him about the catapult just got ignored... Are we realy need to say "i buy more catapults if you look for a fix for the new design!" to get a answere?

Ignorance IS bliss. Anybody who thinks otherwise just hasn't had their comfortable illusions shattered yet.

I've mothballed my A1 and C4 until they fix SRM hitreg. The K2 and C1 are the only variants worth running even with the LRM changes. Too bad, really... the C4 could be good if they moved the energy hard points out of the CT and into the torsos.

Whoah, I got stuck behind an A1 on the street in River City yesterday, and all I could think of was:Posted Image

The Locust vs The Catapult was a great one worth a repost. Too funny.

Just checking in to see if there is any new news. I also can't bear to run my A-1 or C-4 until the missile boxes are visually fixed. The changes are awful looking regardless of balance. I don't care that the hit boxes are bigger/smaller, I just the catapults to be beautiful again!

I've actually had a number of good games in my A1 lately, fit with 5 streaks and an LRM15. It's ugly, especially since the add-on sections have TWO TUBES EACH on them, but it does work.

I can't seem to find a fit that makes the C4 worth running, pretty or not. Maybe 3xSRM6, 1xLRM??, 2ML? I would be like a CN9-A with an LRM rack added and less durability.

Phranken Camo permanent unlock....

But the real sad story is that i also have a jester...
I was blind on this day, just wanted the energyboat hero of my farvorite mech. After the patch was ready and i got the jester i builded in 2xer ppc (arms) and 4xmlaser (torso) . I was shocked how the Ppcs looked and checked the other Catapults... since this day i used the jester just for around 5 matches. Sure i could run the ppcs in the Torso but i wanted the K2 optic on the Arms like before...

Well, the Jester does look fairly nice with laser-arms. It's actually one of my most-played Mechs at this point...

Catapult Tiger and Buccaneer permanent unlock. All four chassis mastered. I'd have bought an (F) model hero just to get the proper pointy nose if they'd have let me. No Jester because all-energy isn't a good Hero in the current meta and I don't like the paint job.

I'm not pleased that they ruined the Catapult's looks, inflicted the VCRs and add-on boxes on us, gave us skinny PPC barrels and fat missile boxes. On the 'mech I sank money into the looks of. Yeah. Unhappy customer, who also feels utterly ignored by PGI.

My CPLT-C1 looks just fine. With only one missile slot in each arm it's not subjected to the add-on VCR players.....

Although THIS isn't a bad build and with having a different weapon system, the add-on VCR player would make sense......

I'm NOT condoning the ugly additional boxes, just trying to find a way it makes sense. But 3xLRM5s should all fit in the missile box....
