This is inexcusable. Look at this. The laser boxes don't fit, the three pegs on the arm are completely asymmetrical and nothing lines up with them. This is completely ridiculous. For years I have watched whoever designs these new weapon geometry hardpoints and mech geometry in general and it seems like he's deliberately going out of his way to mess up what are otherwise good designs from Flying Debris. For years. Literal years. Please fire this man.

Who in their right mind looked at this and said, "Yeah that looks good put it in?" Do you have no concept of quality control?

I don't understand how is this even possible?
Please change the designer! Save this game!
My tolerance is almost exhausted.. *frustration*

I don't even really understand what was wrong with the old designs. Some of them were standing out, everyone still understood that those were lasers on the hunchback etc. They didn't look bad. You could even say they were "produced by another manufacturer" or something. Now everything looks the same.

Better or worse, I think the effort could've been spent on something else.

There was nothing wrong with the old designs. They were quite aesthetic and the unique touches made each mech look and feel different and interesting.

The new ones aren't just a sidestep, or a step backwards, they're a marked decline in quality and diversity for no appreciable purpose.

If you say that the left looks better that just means you're a liar.

I would like an official response as to why they support these "upgrades" over their better looking past models.

What if we were allowed to have adaptive geometry on ballistic and laser weapons, to adjust the size of them how we want them.

I actually agree with all of you and I am not fan of all of these geometry changes as well, simply because a lot of my mechs got ruined as well as yours (especially my favorite NCIX centurion and my battlemaster). I just don't understand why the current model designer had to re-do all of the weapon models instead of adding to the existing ones.

This is not sportcar this is battle machine dammit! But I think CT lasers must be lined horizontal by 'cause of engine and gyro space.

You cannot possibly be defending the new weapon geometry, are you?

The AC/10 and HPPC barrels on the Rifleman are criminal. Both are shorter than the laser barrels, and it just looks horrendous.

As a founder and someone who has spent hundreds of hours and well over a hundred dollars on this game I demand an explanation.
