So they did the Atlas pass and gave them dynamic hardpoints, however the Founders Atlas was skipped. Any idea when this is gonna be fixed?

They have already addressed this since the Boar Head's release. It was not skipped, in fact it was the first Founders mech IIRC to get the dynamic hardpoints.

Does he mean visibly showing the weapons equipped? Because it annoys the hell outta me!

I believe that is actually the case now. Unless, PICS!

The missiles on the shoulder change, but the gun and side rack don't disappear or alter if the weapons are different.


Let me pose the question... would you really want something to stick out from the Atlas like the Hunchy's new Hunch?

TBH, I'm leaning a lot towards no for that.

Yes I meant visually and no they have not done anything to the founder atlas.

Yeah, this annoys me as well. Changing/removing weapons still does NOTHING for the founder Atlas' appearance.

IIRC - the founder's atlas is a completely different model than the other variants, which is why it did not receive the same level of detail pass in the previous go-round. I believe they said it was still an on-going thing.

it is the same configuration as the D, just with a different skin. I don't think it would take much to update it. I just don't think it is high on their list as there are not many founders atlii any more. :P

The head of the Founder's Atlas is actually quite different than the regular AS7-D, so it is actually a different model, not just skin. But the other Founder's mechs also have unique geometry and they've been updated so, yeah, I have no idea what the hold-up is. they must have done something really different on that one.

Or they forgot about it. *shrug*
