My best guess is the that the angle of the laser fire, causing it to emanate from below the lasers, is a bit jarring to OP's sensibilities.

But seriously, this isn't exactly a shot you should use on the mainpage when it has these 2 rather obvioulsy flaws.

I get your point, but it's not like you don't see it in every match you play anyway.

yes but everyone accessing the page sees it. Thats why it shouldn't be used there. Ingame you hardly pay attention to it so it doesn't matters there at all.

OPs complaint is a minor thing in the grand scheme of problems MWO has.

may be, but i think the team doing this web page jobs aren't the ones working on the other grand schemes of porblems.

[TLBFestus]

The OP probably just thinks it's a butt fugly bit of art.

I'd agree.

How exactly did they get this to happen?

Wouldnt the torso lasers converge?

[sycocys]

Their last one has painted over laser streams as well.

I laughed at the 3 points of aiming focus myself.

- My bad, this one is actually 4 points - the torso lasers are firing at different things somehow + and both of the arms are firing at different things.

look at this



the way the PPC's effeacst starts in the barrel is also weird. if they ha kept the large barrels this would be covered by the mechs model, but this way it starst to be visible.

Only if the arms are locked to it.

its still strange how it loosk like, because one of the Torso lasers aims a bit down as well, the other is straight, and the arms probably go in a weird way somewhere else, as if that had 3 own points it converges at.

The torso lasers should still converge to the invisible torso reticule - and even if you disregard that, shouldn't be shooting in two different directions.

The more glaring one to me is that the arms are firing in two directions.

[cazidin]

You're absolutely right! We should correct this glaring and obvious error caused by some poor, unfortunate and very likely unpaid intern IMMIEDATELY! Divert all resources to pretty pictures! This may cost delay the Command Console buff and other balance fixes but it's worth it!

Par of it is probably the perspective. Also no way to tell what, if anything, is being shot at and, by extension, where the convergence point might actually suppose to be.
