It a shame this is Clan. I really wanted to own this pack. Sad when an IS guys peaking over the fence. Just want an ultra Ac20 and a bit of fun. Might pick one up for c-bills later.

What the heck is up with the model? Why does it look so wide and derpy?

The chest, even with the added girth of the missile launchers looks 1/6-1/8 to wide. It's almost like the chest overall is bloated in size relative to the rest of the mech lending to a T-shape looking mongrel rather than a sleek humanoid look like it should have.

The arms look super weird and bad. On the concept art, the pauldrons extend out and cover the upper arm actuators. The arms are again about 1/6 to 1/8 out too far.

It just looks bad from an aesthetic standpoint. Isn't that what this is about? Aesthetics, despite the games engine showing it's age terribly day by day, patch by patch.


So please grab the modeler give him/her an extra croissant and coffee or a helping of poutine, and ask them to do a quick rehash politely. pretty please?


That can't possibly be from the camera, can it? Please don't Hellfire/Nightstar the Incubus.

If only that proved to be true in most cases.

Meh, if the hitboxes are too bad if they are too large, it’ll get some structure quirks, hopefully :)

Look ar the high chest mounted energy hard points. I expect 2xERLL and 2xERPPC builds to dominate most loadouts.

The only GBL mechs left are the Horned Owl, Phantom, Grizzly, Naga, and Stone Rhino.

dont think they will add the Naga unless they add the arrow IV. Not sure how they would work out arty I think a WoT style may work but I dont know people would want something unique and cry that its a rip off. maybe a lob grenade like in some first person shooters where it shows your arc of the weapon you are launching.

What is bad with the belly area, when the mech twisted it looks like clipping?

Yeah, the chest looked so big because this girl wears some monster heels. Seriously, look at those heels.

I hope it gets an Atlas like booty waggle.

I find it funny that the Incubus Mech, is named after male demon, but the IS designation is called the Vixen (yes I know it is a fox), which mean a spiteful or quarrelsome woman. Posted Image

Oh, those silly Spheroids.

Ok, I see it now. The mech does looks like a woman (especially with those heels). If that was the clan's intentions, it should have been called, the "Succubus". Posted Image
