You cant deny that alpha 2 Sharpshooter looked way better and was best looking mech in the game.
I got bad feeling that its set will be most expensive in the game :S.

to be honest, the look of the mechs is very good...but i think those beta versions are too much ''pushed'' in strange designs.

You had great visual concepts for this game that makes Hawken unique...but the only suggestion i can give is :don't lose your taste and don't overdo! a mech is always a hi tech machine: don't transform it into an WWII legged tank! :D

They are not ugly at all if you take in consideration the art stiles determines the look of the mechs, if this game was self-shaded/cartoony they might have more room to work whit them, but the art stile determines its a realistic mech experience hence why they look like 10 post apocalyptic engineers made a mech machine whit what they could work whit, its a matter of opinion too obviously.

In my opinion they look Awesome in the scenario context and story its just some times hard to appreciate them whit all those effects and blending colors, that is the only thing that bothers me about their look, big Mech machines should stand out allot more in the battlefield.

If one day they make a rainy map, assaulters will start with a considerable pull.

Yeah. I agree that some of the mechs look rather "Strange" (like how the Assault Mech looks like a CRT/ Microwave with legs, arms and thrusters welded to it), but still, they are war machines. They aren't supposed to look pretty.

I for one happen to be quite fond of the TV and Xbox mech designs.

It was fun while it lasted.
