What is goin on with the lopsided energy mounts?

Hahahahahahahaha

But that is concerning as I like to main Cicadas :/

Looks more pronounced and silly with PPC's Plus i keep hitting terrain with the lower one now when i play it so annoying.

As for the Cicada's new asymmetrical look... I guess an artist got involved without the engineer. Sad when that happens. Overall look is nice but its former symmetrical weapon set ups were so much better, both in appearance as well as in function.

While I understand the need to place heavy, recoil producing weapons near the mech's center of gravity, the lasers and possibly the PPCs would be mounted up high, especially mechs without arms like the Cicada.

That right side energy torso mount SCREAMS to be mounted in the upper position like it's mate on the left. Please fix it. Thanks.

Put a ballistic in the left side and an energy in the right side - looks balanced to me

[The Mech behind you]

Because it's a great idea to put an asymmetrical weapon placement on a symmetrical mech ...no wait, it's not!

[Thorqemada]

The problem is the RT Energy Slot that moved down - Energy only on the 3M is now asymetrical and Energy+Ballistic becomes symetrical.
Imho the old placing allowed better ridge peeking but maybe it was the intention of PGI to prevent that.
