Resistance has noon painted areas to. Highly doubt we're going to suddenly see every stitchwort mech get the treatment

Bishop...

Non-painted areas are different with base textured unique geometry.

Those "areas" are on the same geometry present on both standard and resistance versions ( a single texture can be applied to both)

Yet the unique geometry on the ebon jaguar covers the whole front of the mech, covering the most visible camo area.
Do you like how clan mechs in their default paint look like?... think of all the grey areas as "unique" geo unchangeable with no camo/color and there is no problem..no?

I like the geometry. But it covers up too much (like clan base gray paints)... and you can not change its color/texture.

Instead of this, I actually prefer Navid to continue "pester" Russ with his "Timberwolf's additional missile racks" proposal because they (the racks) do look ugly!

I did... Russ thought it was a buff to timbers (it was actually a hitbox nerf) and said they have other priorities.
My tries to explain further was ignored.

Navid look at the Resistance Mechs. All have the same textured, non painted, extra geometry.

May I see the Cauldron Bane (I) in these colours?

Here's my attempt at it, but it's kinda crappy...

Its also minimal special geometry. Roll bars etc. Its not like Resistance 2, where the entire head will be unique geometry, and all black.

actually might want to take a closer look. It's subtle, but on several of them, there is a significant amount. Just blens in with the black of the base paint.

I did this just for you Bishop....

I dare you to say you dont like it.

But i like that "Black everywhere" much better

I don't dislike it...but actually prefer the black everywhere on that particular model. Just looks more unique, to me. Sorry.

[Cat-in-Exile]

I prefer the black too. But it's like the lesser of two evils, because I think the unique geometry on the EBJ looks pretty "meh" anyway.

If your talking about what i am, those are just textures using different materials. Its not actual geometry. And everything is additional, not swaping like with wolfhound head etc.

New system:
Special geometry = black
Wolfhound head = special geometry

woulfhound head = black

Got anything to prove that?

Unless they change how they decide to deal with special geometry. This is the way it will be

so, an assumption. Cool.

I like the Bane geometry. Gives it a strong fighter jet vibe. I can haz LAM plz?

I don't know who that masked guys is (saw him here and there... but that was it)

Yet I've grown a big hatred towards him now

Somewhat disappointing that the A LT mounts don't triple-up in the overshoulder module, but was expecting that so hey. Lines up better with Ghost Heat on Clangunz anyways. Can take a Gauss and two cLPL without a care in the world and ignore the arms completely if ye like.

Like so - CBN-METALORD

Could even strip the arms down for extra equipment, but since you have nowhere to put it except the arms you're stripping...well, better to keep some damage sponge, methinks. Heh, not what I'm going to be doing with my first Cauldron-Born - that honor will be saved for very different, rather closer to stock uses of the A ST pods - but it'll happen eventually.

And people will hate it. So much.

Better version:

EBON JAGUAR EBJ-PRIME

Otherwise one of the LPLs is mounted in the low slot. Still totally manageable heat like this, and slightly better alpha.

If you actually read the wiki page, its logic within a premise. The reasoning is sound, given that the premise is correct.

And honestly I cant see why your so adamant to defend PGI's new treatment of special geometry or to deny that there is a new treatment unless you've bought the new resistance pack (also an "assumption")

There Are also other lines of logic, that can be followed. And I am adamant about nothing, other than making a global, all encompassing assumption off of one set of Mechs, is indeed, simply an assumption. Paint it as you will. You could be right, you could be wrong. Declaring "it will be so" though without any actual evidence, is TBH, somewhat stupid.

To each their own, I suppose.

All I saw here is further proof that Russ is an ass (on twitter.) Yeah Ive been workin the black into my schemes.
