Title. I get that its maintenance mode and all but the 3rd hardpoint on the right arm has been in the wrong place for months.

Probably not. Remember their solution to bouncing / decoupling shadows on open doors / claws was to just eliminate the shadows altogether.

Mount three ballistics in each arm. The third hardpoint is in a different place outside the claw on each arm- on the left, it is mounted about midway up the inboard face of the claw; on the right it is... decidedly lower. No other KGC has this issue, as no other KGC has six ballistic hardpoints.

Yeah apparently if it's not a spelling error, or something to do with in game purchases, PGI could give a flying F.

Very frustrating.

There is as much change of PGI fixing it as you stopping the lies & misinformation you spread around the forums on a daily basis.

So when one stops...

ASH is right, PGI don't even care about spelling.

Ok maybe it wasn't a 'spelling' error but, from the last hotfix:

- Fixed a typo where the Hero level rewards now display as GSP as intended instead of GXP.

I wasn't being strict on spelling either but had this recent necro in mind.

Why are you insistent on bringing mass dakka using low slung widely spaced hardpoints? Seems like a problem that only exists in theory.

In my case I just hate "seeing" that weird placement.

The KGC has long been my favorite PGI rendered 'mech.

I'd just like to see it "perfect"...

I wanted to see this, so check my Kings... only have the 000(L) sort, with 6 uac2. Doesn't do this -- 3rd gun in each arm is outside the claw, but the same left to right.

So I try the 000 from the store. uac2's are the same as on the one I own (L). AC2's however do what you describe. So it is weapon dependent. Still weird.

It's not as popular mech like the catapults so give it 2-3 years and a daily thread posting like which was done to fix the catapults and maybe pgi will finally fix it. I'd like them to remove that lame ghost heat on all kgc so they dual ac 20.
