Glad to see the Kit Fox shrink a tad but I am surprised that the Adder got a little bigger. I also expected the Artic Cheetah to grow a bit but I guess it is considered OK.

Wow! The Jenner IIC got beffed up. Glad the Uller got shrinked, but yeah its a bit odd that the Adder got bigger, oh well. Nice work.

No, the Kit Fox got a tad BIGGER.

Hm... Not sure what happened there.

Also surprised by the Adder. And I dunno man, the Jenner IIC is good, but it's also a bit of a glass cannon. Might've been upscaled a little too much.

The one with the white light in the middle of its forehead is the old one. It sure looks a bit bigger to me.

It's a formula so I guess the size it's the one it has to have. What I consider a complete troll is how they keep insisting on leaving the secondary variants unquirked despite already knowing they will only get worse. IIC-3 is begging for quirks since release and they are still laughing at us.

[MoonUnitBeta]

Finally the Jenner IIC is a target.

It's not so bad that the other two are bigger, since comparatively they all can be hit pretty easily now...

But that's kind of worrisome in itself.

Think PGI will be able to break through the 171kph speed cap?

The Jenner IIC is then so big as my Shadowcat ... WTF
A little is OK but so much?

[Cy Mitchell]

It is a good thing the Jenner II-C got bigger or the Oxide crowd would be even more upset than they already will be.

That bump on its head is as tall as a ShadowCat but it is much less bulky so the size look about right.

This is completely retarted. Jenner IIC Scale nerf? Lol its as fragile as it is.

[Deathlike]

So... now the Jenner IIC is going to get quirks?

Seriously though, it'll be ACH all day, every day.

They weren't changing the scale based on performance, they were changing it based on an arbitrary-but-constant density rating.

AKA, they didn't care to do any design analysis and they will quirk stuff to compensate...which they could've done to fix performance in the first place.

[Windscape]

yaay made my OP kitoxes a little bit better

and jenner IICs will be easy prey form now on

and wheres the ACH?

[Virlutris]

I'm pretty happy I hadn't started on the Jenner IICs yet.

Yikes, Gonna wait on these for sure, now.

[Wolf Clearwater]

Kit Fox got a little love. It could seriously use some more. How about some side torsos with an energy or missile hardpoint?

ACH and Locusts, and Oxides because let's face it, that wasn't a nerf at all.

If the IICs were going to have any quirks, they would already gotten them by now.
I mean, Orion and HGN got them, so if they intended to quirk it, why wait when it is obviously easier prey after the rescale?

[Tennex]

Light mechs needed to be scaled smaller than the regular volume/tonnage ratio because of balance reasons.

You guys went the wrong way with this one. And its going to be VERY game changing, making 1/4 of the mechs in this game almost unplayable.

I forsee this being reversed. Or some ridiculous balance system put into the game to compensate for light mechs.

Jenner2C completely screwed up.
Congrartulations to pgi at its finest...and for all the qquers who couldn't aim for it.
