I personally want to push the Mad Cat mk II as far back as necessary. It's an iconic late end mech and we still got many many mechs for clans to be added before than, We haven't even touched half the assaults by 3050 and you want to have some 3060+ designs? ^^ Not that I hate the mad cat II! It was always my fave 3060's design...like... maybe in a few more years or so? I am not too bothered with having variants of existing mechs out of time line like kodiak, warhawk, etc... because if PGI makes up variants it'll be the same more or less the same. (for eg the made up hunchback A and B are based of hunchback 2 and 3.).

However when the mad cat II comes out... I hope mad dog II and III will be added... as well as Deimos... uziel... argus... thanatos... cougar... Osirisetc. do not worry, this time will come eventually.


Nope been asking for it since closed beta, sorry I've waited long enough, if people want so called other mechs speak up like I have for 3 years if you haven't well congrats on being a quite patient one, those people apparently wait a bit longer. Timeline is already completely useless...

I think one solution would be to have no convergence on torso mounted weapons. If you have two lasers, each set 6 feet apart, they would hit 6 feet apart on the enemy as well. Converge arm weapons like normal, but leave the torso's as they are on the mech.


No convergence makes no sense. Nothing in war works that way and I would not expect this game to work worse than what armies have been doing for decades already.

I might be ok with fixed convergence (probably by weapon group) such as set your MLasers to converge at 270m. That way you have to get your target within a certain range to be within a "sweet spot" of damage. At least that makes some sense.

No convergence at all is just wrong.

The AC Barrel is ridiculously oversized in width... Artillery does not look like that. They should give AC barrels length like the PPC barrels on Warhammers and ACs on Rifleman and Jager.

Why does the melee Kodiak have higher hard points than the Atlas?


Because if they were lower it'd have guns in its knees.

Just remind Russ to keep that head low between the shoulders or it will have the same CT target 360 deg problem the atlas does.

Tyman4

No thanks.Posted Image The sunken head is the one thing I really dislike about this design. It doesn't need to be raised much, but it needs to be at least high enough that it isn't flush with the shoulders. It just looks ridiculous in my opinion with the whack a mole head.

The head being low like that helps the CT from being visible from all sides. A head sticking up above the shoulders is a liability in this game the way the hitboxes are done.

Besides, most of the old official artwork looks that way anyway.

Yup head low is better and arms short and at an angle (no gorilla arms)
