Not asking for this to happen as fast as possible PGI. Just would like it to hit your to-do list so we can see happen in the future... even if in little bits at a time.

Also, could you start scaling new mechs right so the problem doesn't get bigger.

Goal 1: 100 yes

Goal 2: 1,000 yes

Goal 3: 2,000 yes

Final Goal: 10,000 yes

EDIT: Ok, so based on what some people have said, would you then just have PGI make future mechs smaller? Or just take a month off of other projects in the future to redo the mechs scaled wrong? Also, why has PGI continued to do something they have noted is wrong almost from the start?

Please read the code of Conduct. We don't do petitions and the poll function isn't for those either. Title of thread changed to reflect that.

that depends on the mech. And I would not generalise this on mediums.
Maddog is taller than Timberwolf, yet 15 t less mech.
Sc is only 5 less than a maddog. So Sc and MDD should be much more similar in size than MDD and TBR.
Circada is quite a nice and small Medium. while others, especially the Nova is wide as an atlas? Not so goodfor the mech at all. It's not as easy at all as it sounds, there are many things to consider.

it is actually more interesting to see that MWO lights are kinda too small/slim

chicken leg emchs seem generally to be a lot smaller than regular leg ones.

While PGI is rescaling Mechs, can we get some of those hitboxes fixed too? I'm really tired of getting shot in the Rear Left Torso on my Hunchbacks, only to receiver the full damage amount on my Front Right Torso. Where's the logic in that???

Don't forget, it is not just mediums are too big. Lights are also too small.

All the mechs need to be rescaled for target box size, peekability, etc
