Those arms are so low...PGI really does need to add additional action/ability to temporarily raise the arms.

Looking at the in-game model, I can't help but think "Hellbringer's brother from another mother."

More like "The Hellbringer's mean nasty Grandpa...."

plenty of angles to see if you watch the stream. Already tweeted Russ about the arms... and at about 30 minutes you get a good "in motion" view... the walk looks good, overall, until you see how oddly crabbed the arms look.

Also,



Hellbringer arm posture would be just about....perfect

Goodness, it dos look a lot like an HBR, doesn't it?

A more handsome version of it.

Hellbringer is essentially the Clan Baby of the Warhammer.

Summoner is the offspring of the Tbolt, Timby is the love child of a Marauder and a Catapult, and the Mad Dog is sortof a cross of the Rifleman and Archer (upper body visuals)

Funny seeing people just realizing this

Comparison to concept art.

cockpit finish looks lazy, torso proportions are off. Arm angle from body in the art, definitely superior

[Malleus011]

The Warhammer looks like he's hunching his shoulders, kind of like the Enforcer. A bit of angle might help that.

[Cyborne Elemental]

Not what I payed for..

Really disappointed in the cockpit/face area. Barely looks like the artwork, its like the Banshee face..
And arms look bad..
Torso slants look all blocky and not sleek and angular.
Even the gyro crotch area, just a big block.

Whole thing should be more angular and keep with the style of the artwork.

Looks derpy, like the old rockem sockem robots..

[Alstren]

Looks easy to side torso, also dem low mounts. Glad I got the marauder instead.

[Helsbane]

When I look at those arms that are tucked in tight to the sides, all I can think is "it looks constipated". It needs a more relaxed arm angle like the Hellbringer has. That would make it look a lot less like it's having issues going potty...

Russ is t5, i knew it!!! =)

so cancel order and tell russ why.

I expected flater missile bay, not MDD long but not so short either. Might be better for hitbox but style is everything.

[Hexenhammer]

And I shall name him Warhammer.

If you've ever had the frustration of playing with arm-mounted weapons on a Dragon you'll understand that wide spread out arms are a bad thing for gameplay while it does look cool to look at.

BK + WH = More reason to keep arm lock on cause the arms are so close to the torso that they may as well be torso weapons..

I used to play 2x ER PPC Hellbringer for WH nostalgia but seems like the HBR is looking a bit better than the WHM is now. WHM will probably have tighter alphas with the arms but HBR has better torso + head points anyway.

Also those Mr. Olympiad torsos had better come with structure buffs.

That was a given the moment the concept art was released.

Cockpit could have been better on the model.

Right now, it looks alot like a banshee... it should have been more squat ... kinda embedded in the torso

Hmm. Would kill to have the arms stick out a little more angled. Straight up and down look stiff and meh

Agreed. They need to be out like the HBK's arms
