• 18% GLOBAL reduction in size.
  
• PGI also now has volumetric measurement for all 60 mechs to aid in rescaling. (All mechs will be re-scaled, and re-quirked accordingly)
  
• Catapult to receive 15-18% reduction as well.

And this is the joke picture from livestream:

That's nice. Where's the Catapult?

[FupDup]

Wowzors...I just hope for this same treatment on all of the other so-called "55 ton mech size" mediums...

That second picture is so cute...I want a plushie of it to cuddle with.

[Nightshade24]

Wow, this was quick.

yeah, this looks smaller than the Adder, or similar to the kit fox.

It puts the Cute Fox to shame.

Turns out my Guesstimate Blender-scales weren't terribly off.

The second one is a joke pic, ~70% reduction (VS the actual 18%)

[Ted Wayz]

Looks good and the fact that all mechs will be treated is awesome.

[Quicksilver Aberration]

I am pleased.

Edit: Until he mentioned that quirks may be re-adjusted, it will still need most if not all of them still.

Seems they shrunk the modular weapons as well. Kinda lazy on PGI's part. At least it allows faster shrinking process.

Yup. Makes sense. Hopefully it'll bring good changes.

yeah, wish weapons would all be a standard size... hopefully that'll be the next step.

All weapons looking the same is one of the biggest issues with "dynamic" geometry. The whole point of it is to make the gundams look more different, not more similar.

I still wish for some gundams* to have things like cylinder-barrel lasers...

[Sigilum Sanctum]

The arms and shoulders have been resized in proportion to the upper torso. It makes it look A LOT better.

[Garfuncle]

Was it said if this was gonna be included in the next patch?

How about some sweet arm-cannons for the Black Knights instead of the "weapon in a box" crap we have now?

*Also get rid of the under-slung mounts because they're garbage*

[Threat Doc]

Yeah, does anyone have a Catapult re-scale picture. I didn't even know the Catapult was getting a re-scale. Well, it would appear that EVERY SINGLE 'MECH IN THE GAME will be getting a re-scale, even if it's only a 1% re-scale.

He said May patch.

[Hit the Deck]

I finally have reasons to play my (L) Nova!

[Garfuncle]

So when you say "global" reduction in size do you mean just for the Nova's general size, or global as in ALL the mechs can be resized and not redone individually?

[Pjwned]

Cool, hopefully PGI doesn't halfass their rescaling effort like they've halfassed a bunch of other things that ended up being left unfinished, and if they do follow through then I will be pleased.
