Question is in the title.
When is the Dragon getting it's geometry pass?
(Aka when the loadout effects the visual appearance of the 'mech)

Anyone know?

After what they did to the Jager, I don't want to see any more mechs getting any geometry passes.

Hopefully never?

PGI has already ruined most of the good looking older mechs.

I hope they never do a single thing to risk ruining that shoulder cannon placement.

If it makes the arm hit boxes smaller it should help keep them dakka dakka going a bit long if you still have ammo.

I'm curious to see how the torso missiles are gonna be handled, and it'll be neat to see the Flame Ballistic change and see PPCs to better emulate a Grand Dragon.

If it means a more slender torso and pulling its arms in (smaller profile), I'd be fine. But if all it is, is tiny pop guns, no thanks.

Since, as you can see in this topic, the community *#@££*@%#&£% every time they do a geometry pass on a mech, they might just leave the rest untouched.

I personally am in favour of these passes with the only exceptions being Jagers and Missilepults. Cataphracts are fine, as are PPCpults. Very few ppl complain about small weapons on newer released mechs or clan mechs so how bad can it possibly be?

I just bought 3 dragons... and , yeah, it looks cool with big guns, but the dynamic geometry is here to stay :/

See the bright side, it helps to identify enemy weapons a little bit faster than the paperdoll...

At least the Jaeger change was a minor buff instead of a nerf like the catapult's vcr's.

The 3 ballistics in the 5N's arm imply another power plug design like on the CN9. Definitely NOT looking forward to this.

If you're close enough to get a good look at the weapons you'd already have them on the paperdoll.
