Please fix the Catapults launchers... make the evil VCR's go away!

Please bring back my original Founders mech looks... please!

Thanks!

Launcher size, tacked on VCRs, crappy PPC barrels, torso twist reduction, etc... All crimes against the poor Catapult.

Not to mention, some weak quirks in the quirk pass IMO. Poor Catapult, somone important at PGI does really...REALLY hate you.

Agreed, I was playing with my Jester tonight and 80% of the games I was in I would die by just CT damage. I would twist as much as possible to try to spread it out but it was ridiculous the number of times I would be dead from a CT destruction and the rest of my mech was yellow/orange. Catapults should have got a lot more quirks then they did.

Bumping for great justice.

well i think this picture of the "new" paintwork PGI gave the founders cat tells enough about the "love" PGI has for it... presenting to you, the Rust-a-pult...

dont get me wrong, i´d like to have this skin as an OPTION on more mechs... but i´d also like to have a choise...

I know I am the minority on this, but...That camo grew on me and makes sense to me.

The idea of the Founder's mechs was they were REALLY old and have seen a lot of battle (easily over a century). They aren't going to look pretty and they shouldn't they should look like they been through h3ll.

Yea, not the prettiest to look at, but a rat rod of sorts pieced together from salvage over the decades just to keep it running.


Yea, I kind of dig it.

as i said, i like it too...as an option...

I was going to say that it's like a hero mech, so they should have fixed camos, but then I thought...Really it is more like the Phoenix mechs than the Hero mechs, and Phoneix mechs have interchangable camo.

So yea, optional would be cool.

Free signatures!










This makes me sad.

Ahhh I remember the day I first purchased Nightwraith, my Catapult K2. She was my first Mech and I loved her from the start. There is a special place within this black and twisted ashen heart for that beautiful Mech and there also shall be.
She was quickly re-fitted with an XL300 engine, a pair of MPL's and she kept her origional PPC's (Seriously, they have never changed once) and 18 DHS. She was beautiful.
However this it seems was not meant to be. For PGI redesigned the artwork. Suddenly those monster heavy Mech-wrecking PPC barrels where replaced with piddly Light PPC barrels and the twisting was nerfed. Shortly thereafter the PPC's where nerfed into the ground, losing their much needed muzzle velocity. The minimal range could be lived with but that speed nerf was brutal and effectively killed them.
Nightwraith has languished since. I sometimes take her out but with the low muzzle velocity We have a hard time hitting even a moving assault out beyond 400 metres.

With the sounds of the quirks we hoped to once again dominate the warzones with dual PPC gunslinging death but it appears that the bigwigs within PGI have ordained this a nope for these quirks will only affect the ballistic's and MLaser's

Now all hope lies with the PPC buffs.


We can but hope for an art redesign (read reversion to the old art)

I still love my cats. I still run my cats. My K2 and my C1, and still sometimes my C4. I can't see the arms from inside the cockpit. But every time I see them sitting in their mechbays, it makes me a little sad.

PGI, please put them back the way they were before...

They also killed the look of the game. Progress they call it.

As a small bone to throw us, Id like to see them put back in (lol) the thing where if youre standing on a rock, your mech is posed correctly. Not the way it is now where your foot is in the rock

Out of all the pics, doesn't that one say it all. Could that right arm be any more ridiculous? Nope...It couldn't.

[CliffhangerJaeger]

Still waiting for someone from PGI to acknowledge this travesty.
I recognize that resources are tight right now with CW, but please comment on community concerns here!
