Is this a sneak peak of the reverted K2 barrels back to concept art size to come?

The polygon camo came out when the K2 had small PPCs.

So polygon camo and Large K2 barrels have never existed in game at the same time. Under that premise, this would have to be an internal build

it probably is to be honest, dazzle is one of the few with 2 channels

tho that can't mean its a new build with a mech using the dazzle camo

They don't need to make it back to original... you just need the width of the barrel corrected as a compromise...

I'm not an expert but does the Pretty Baby sport a PPC cannon on the right hand as stock loadout?

It's late after the night shift and some rest may be in order..

I hope so. The K2 PPC shame has gone on long enough.

If they do restore the barrels, I hope they give me a reason to use them. 20% velocity increase hasn't cut it. It needs 30% or possibly 40%. Then my K2 will be outfitted with PPCs.

So many beautiful mechs ruined. Beautiful mechs amazingly envisioned and realized by the PGI art department.
Catapult (all variants)
Cataphract
Centurion
Hunch
several others....

And the worst atrocity of them all:
Jagermech

So many mech sullied and shat on by... wtf dept is in charge of ruining good looking mechs after the fact????

Maybe, or just the pic was already made before, back when weapons were big and compensating.

My 3 U-AC/5 Jager was so beautiful... and now... it's meh.

I also miss the long barrels on the Raven's. (Like the RVN-3L in the forum background picture.)

I respectfully disagree. The Jager did get very mistreated, but as for atrocity....that goes to the Catapult A1. No other mech received anything close to the abomination that is now the Cat A1's ears.

Please remind me last time PGI reverted an unpopular change.
