Does anyone else think the in cockpit view, particularly when you look down at your pilot 'body', looks really bad?

Compared to the pilot view in say SC, it looks like the graphics are light years behind on that front, but both games are using the same engine.

Would be nice to see plans to update the in-cockpit graphics down the line...any news on this?

Unless my pilot has boobs I really don't have any reason to look down there.

But really, would be a nice touch after PGI hashes out more pressing issues.

I laughed so hard at your comment.

'Boobs'.. 'To look down there' ... 'Nice touch' .. 'Pressing issues'.

The internet have destroyed my mind.

I'd really like to have HD textures on my legs at some point... they really are horrendous... gloves are nice though

If anything in mech cockpits changes I want the monitors in mechs to be more useful, my hellbringer has 7 monitors that all say [auto detect (no)]

I threw the boob idea at Paul in the NGNG stream chat. So he is aware of it. I think if we have this feature we are ready for steam!

There are far more pressing concerns than how the rarely-obsevred pilot body looks. Is it top-tier? No. But I don't care.

Remove all the screens or make them work. Period.

Russ talked about how the pilot model looks bad on one of the town halls; but it's not a priority, as other people have said. They're aware, but don't expect anything to be done any time soon.

It does, i think it could be improved.

I also think, PGI needs Low/Med/High settings for anything in cockpit.

sometimes after a while i'm used to looking at the cockpit and would rather have an option for the resources be used to render the game another 10fps faster.

I'm all for boobs.... or at least female pilots....

How about a head for starters? EVerytime I look down I see my headless body...

minor adjustment.

And clean up the game a ton, so many wasted textures makes sloppy game and low FPS for no reason other than sloppy.

All hope is lost on this, we have over 200 mechs and what 16+/_ maps in 3 years? But I digress, I like stompy mechs and poorly configures challenges so i will plod forward.
