no offence intended to the artists but if those turned up in the game i'd just quit, junkheap omni's is not what we need in the innersphere

just like starwars didn't need "customisable" Darth vader

both are just as bad for the eyes.

This reminds me of one of the Cat Cammos in MWO. Notice how the cockpit is a different color...no no no. I don't need to make the cockpit EASIER to see LOL. I forget what camo it was (might be the base camo for all I know).

I've only seen this abomination once and killed it pretty easily since it was so big...

However this is not what I really want them to focus fixing in the game. Try rebalancing everything honestly either start from scratch and do it right, or shut this failed game down...Not enough people play it regularly anymore so now we have horribly balanced games. Tonnage is no longer consistent with a fair match it's always lopsided on some level.

I'd like to see an actual expert designer take a crack at this game with it's mech design. The ones doing it now obviously just not cut out for it. No one likes their work. I bet after some research I could do a better job if I made a career out of it.

Any chance that when you do a fix for the A1, you fix the C1as well so it doesn't have GIANT C4 ears?

You're a skilled artist and all baabaa214, but you already got your own thread in the art section. This thread is for discussing the new missile modules, it's not a showcase for your art.

Hey PGI,
"just because everbody hates it, it doesn't mean it's not good?!"
you are definitely on to something here... it for sure isn't good or aesthetical mech design by any stretch...

recomend rewind. PLEASE?

I have to ask, why did the cat need to get the shaft anyway? It appeared to be not only working fine as it was but it was working in a way that was acceptable to cannon. Would the time have been better spent fixing the tubes on the trebuchet, which suffers from having a LRM 15 as a wrist watch, even when no such weapon is even equipped?

I don't normally like to post but...


My God, what have you done to my only mech?

go away for a while and come back to THIS?

The Cat was too easy to hit CT so instead you make it so everyone is too busy shooting our ears off to notice?

For gods sake...

Please fix.....


Has there ever been an official answer to this Issue?

You shouldn't ask for an official answer, because chances are good you won't like what you hear (there are other mechs that could be "fixed" in this way, you know).

The only 'official' answer has been a tweet of "We're working on it."

Up to you if you find that statement reassuring or not. I'd have loved to see something like 'We're working on changing it back' or 'We're working on fitting the tubes in the old C1 launcher' or 'We're working on reverting to the old PPC barrels.'

AMEN

I miss the old Cats (Gauss and SixPak). When they were running around they were something to watch out for.
Fix these kittens and bring back the Lions.... of MWO.

One of the few threads were ppl actually agree. It needs to be fixed period. PGI seems to be aware, are they gonna do something? Or do we need to bug them for months about it?
