A completely random part of the left torso is considered center torso...

I honestly think that someone at PGI is just trolling us.

Why the flying **** does the Hellbringer have CT hitboxes on its SHOULDERS and GODDAMN SIDE TORSOS??


Space Magic.

I actually rage quit at one point, because torso twisting your CT away from enemies only to watch it continue to flash until you are dead 5 or 6 matches in a row proved to be an amazing catalyst for pure nerd fury.

Wait, so they didn;t even bother to give the hip section the bikini treatment? you know, how they were actually going back to original mechs to do that, to fix hitbox? Didn't they follow their own design protocol on a BRAND NEW MECH?

I LOL at the CT front showing on the back. Hell put 1 armor on the rear CT then I guess.

Someone should also tweet to him about having the leg hitbox take that bikini line thing like they were doing, they might as well do it right off so it is right if they are going to look at them.

Huh, I had no idea there were so many wonky locations that dealt damage to the CT - especially on the back of these things.


I was able to crit a Hellbringer through the Rear CT section easily enough with my Hunchback 4-SP....


I guess I'm just shooting the right locations so much that I don't notice the wonky stuff that'd happen if I shot the wrong ones? lol


Still, after seeing those pictures, yeah I can see what needs to be changed. Any "green" areas that aren't clearly part of the front-middle section on the first picture needs to not be a "green" section anymore.

I'm guessing the KGC's claws will be counted as it's head or something when it comes out...
