Haven't spent money on MWO in a year, except buying 1250MC last month, because I think the game is broken; hit detection, boring gamemodes, no c-bills balance (farm in lighter mechs to play in heavier - repair&rearm), bad player friendly mechanics, lack of features and maps that don't feel like Battletech at all.

But, let's say I'd buy my favorite mech Timbey, is there a chance 3D modeling team will add different models for its ballistic arm?
Because ballistics sticking from the arm like they do now looks stupid.

Also, adding two more hit boxes for top missile racks is not a possibility too, right?

P.S. Plus, you still didn't release weapon 3D models for Dragons... No ones play them any way, so why bother, right?

The Centurian is the next Mech to recieve updated geometry (ie..fixed guns). They are slowly making there way through the Mechs and updating them as needed.

I like the Timberwolf, I think it is one of the better looking Mechs in the game.....Not sure what you mean by 2 more hit boxes?

Anyway - Lot's of positive changes, Dev communication is awesome right now and everyone is looking forward to CW!

Will they add more 3D ballistic models for TW's right arm or will ballistic gun barrels would be just sticking out of the box? (which is look stupid).

2 more hit boxes mean either of top missile racks can be destroyed without torsos being blown.

I'm not sure if they are going to do anything for the right C-pod arm... Right now though for the Missile launchers in the torso's they kind of need to stay part of the torso, people already ***** and moan about the Timber Wolf's hit boxes, imagine how bad it would be if they had extra hit boxes!

Besides, if you take smaller launchers, or the S-torso pods, you can actually have smaller non-eared Timber Wolves.

He means the LRM "ear" racks that count as side torso. They make the mech problematic in ridge peek-a-booing. But if you are carrying LRMs then why are you ridge cresting in the first place?

Believe it or not, that shortcut of modeling its C-pod arm is keeping me from spending 55 dollars right now. Huge Gauss fan, and would like to rock with LBX 20AC, but I don't like how the weapons look in the arm.
