Anyone heard anything of if the arm shields are going to be there on the in game models and are they going to be parts of the arms? Will we be able to torso twist the shield arms to protect the launchers?

They will be apparently part of the arms, not a entirely different object on it.

You will not be able to torso twist well with the shield arms, you'd have to twist a majority away from the oncoming fire, possibly showing your rear torso.

If theyre part of the arms couldnt you sacrifice them by twisting toward the fire and expose the shields to them so the shield pointy things block the fire?

No, your entire arm would be destroyed along with it since it is part of the arm, therefore sharing it's damage.

I hope, however, that will be a different case with the black knight.

theyre going to be part of the center torso

so you always get hit in the center torso no matter what

Thats what I said... sacrificing the arm but keeping your launchers.

People wanted this mech so badly, wanted it over the Zues, and they got a Target bigger than an Awesome.

I've never used the D.O.A argument before, and I've usually mocked people that say it but well.

If there ever was a mech its going to be this one, I don't think even mega quirks can save it, but we'll see.

I really must stop buying things before I see them in the pixel 3d stage

Well, to be fair, we have no frame of reference for how big it is so you really cant say that its bigger than an awesome. We haven't seen it compared to anything.
