I noticed when I changed out the weapons the picture/display of the Cataphract did not change

I was wondering anyone else was seeing the same thing

Ctf is one of the last few that need updating.

Kintaro, Dragon, Awesome, Cicada, and at least 1-2 more don't have updated body customizations yet.

Its probably in the pipe somewhere, just hasn't been any news about it.

Many of the early mechs in the game do not have dynamic weapons appearance. Catahract was the second or third heavy mech in the game. (Hell, the Cataphact, Catapult, and Dragon were the only heavies available when I started.)

Information is ammunition.

Can't wait for PGI to fix the weapon modelling on the last mechs. Although I weep for what they'll do to my AWS-8Q

Kintaro always had weapon customization. The Blackjack was the first mech to feature full visual customization like that and any mech introduced after it came with it as well. Any mech added before the Blackjack needs/needed to be fixed. (Though I use the term 'fixed' loosely in the case of the Catapults and Centurion.)

The Commando, Cicada, Cataphract, Dragon, Awesome, and Stalker (except the Misery's ballistic hardpoint) I believe are the only ones still with fixed geometry.

Yep. And a lot of mechs that already have visual customization could use a second pass if they want weapon uniformity, like the Hunchback, Orion, Banshee, etc.

Although I doubt it'll ever happen.

Yeah, the Kintaro could probably be skipped, but it does have that chest Door, wouldn't be a bad thing to see that go, as long as it doesn't get the Blue/grey treatment like the Centurion/Trebuchet did.

I wish those new parts that got added would get covered by your camo, that shiny blue bare metal kinda kills the look.

I'd rather not have it "updated", knowing PGI.
