[aspect]

Thanks for posting this.

[Undead Bane]

feels fine to me. A heavy chunk of metal != big chunk of metal.

Too small... I still find it harder to hit at 1000m with my Guasspult than an hitting an Awesome. Make it bigger so we can hit it better hehehe

[Kibble]

imo all the mech sizes need to be looked at. Even while I am in my hunchI still feel like an atlas is to small.

Now bring on the sexual innuendos!

Size doesn't matter it's how you use it!

[Destron]

The Fallic Torso is way too big.

Size matters how easily you get hit. I would make my Atlas the size of a pea if I can LOL!

I can see over an 80 ton mech in my 70 ton mech. So yea, too small. Though I do get a brief feeling of superiority when looking down into its cockpit before it pulverizes me.

[FrupertApricot]

Yeah the centurions too big and the stalkrs too small. everything else im okay wtih mostly

[Joe Mallad]

Im not expecting the Stalker to be as big as an Atlas but it should be a bit wider than it is now and height wise, it should be talle than an Awesome. The Cataphract is taller than the Stalker lol.

[Dukarriope]

I just played my first round with Stalkers. It looks... TINY. Honestly. TINY.
And I was in a JENNER.

I'm not sure how I feel about it's overall size, but it's proportions definitely seem off to me. The legs are too boxy and long or the torso is too small...I dunno

In terms of proportions, I was really hoping for something similar to this:


I realize that isn't official, but even the real concept art has a bulkier looking torso (or maybe just a better posture) than the one in-game. PGI tweaked the 3d model to prevent clipping due to movement and it didn't turn out so well IMO.

[Tennex]

way too tall its about the size of a catapult

[Catalinasgrace]

I voted too small however I got to thinking and trying to find out some info... Exactly what is the mech suppose to be next to a Catapult or an Atlas? I mean is it suppose to be shorter slim? Are there any charts or anything? Sorry I'm not a huge battletech guy so I have no idea...

[Lt Limpy]

Looks like the majority of people are dissatisfied with their dongwalker's diminutive proportions and want them to be a larger size. Surprise surprise...

[Owlfeathers]

A bit too small. It's a pretty basic shape, with not much detailing, so I feel that it needs something to make it stand out... being absolutely massive wouldn't be a bad place to start. On a more practical note, making it bigger would allow for walking over slightly taller obstacles and being able to see over buildings more easily, both of which I would consider to be good things.

[Noodlesoup]

if you make it bigger, it will be as fail as the failsome because the size will be excessively large and the convergence will get worse

[Cerlin]

The legs are pretty big but I feel the torso is dinky. However, this is countered by its huge side profile and terrible turning radius. It feels pretty well build to me after my first day playing against it (using mostly FAST Dragons and Cataphrachs.)

[Dagger6T6]

which of these sizes has humanoid legs instead of chicken legs? that is the one i want to vote for
