Here's my video of me basically shooting Zavier at point blank: 


ABSOLUTELY grotesque. What the heck is this?


So I wanna bring up hitboxes, do they really need to be in the shape of a box??
Isn't there a better way to have the hitbox be shaped more like the actual mech itself? 
This is just intolerable. I know this is just a pre-update but stuff like this one of those fatal flaws that turn people off.

right now the hitboxes are smaller than the mechs - the A classes' hitbox comes up about halfway through the main chassis.

 

also, lotsa noise about these hitboxes getting fixed, and optimization will prolly lend to them being just... boxes.

You know there is a problem when even splash damage isn't registering.

I think it's a lag issue

It's been a long time coming, but it's time for a new map.  We will have some all-Highways-all-time-time servers running, so come on in and check it out.

 

Patch Notes:

 

• General

  • Fixed Secondary Weapons not showing Charge bar properly. Right EOC charge bar now appears on G1-Civ and G2-Civ.

  • Removed 'Devices' button from in-game settings.

  • Reverted changes on hitboxes due to player feedback.

  • Repeater shots no longer explode on contact with the terrain.

  • Healing torch SFX now plays correctly.

  • Pressing Shift+W+X no longer displays debug info.

  • Mouse input in the form of dragging the scrollbar or using the scrollwheel drags or zooms the camera, respectively, on the mech selection screen during a match.

  • Created a button to quit the game if launched in an undesired version.

• Maps

  • New Highways map added.

    • Highways is an entirely new map for Hawken, with, you guessed it, it features highways.

    • Just outside of Prosk, there was a location known as the ‘Highways’. Once a bustling intersection before the Hawken Virus, it is now deserted and considered a playground for pilots to hone their vertical game.

    • Highways is pretty much finalized, however we would like to hear of any bugs/exploits you guys experience with the map.

• Fixed ‘taking damage’ tooltip when starting an ‘Explore Maps’ game.

• Fixed various map boundary exploits.

• Added new Mech Credits screen with improved purchase flow

• Fixed various other visual issues.

with a little bit of browsing you can save yourself the 30 seconds it takes to write an uninformed forum thread

What's interesting is the wording - could it be that this was a decision that was made right from the start for the hitbox changes?

 

In any case, all is good now, especially on the SS side of things.

 

As always, The Circle of Several Sabots approves.

Or he can spend 30 seconds getting others to find fuzz for him :p

I work in IT and it seems that the rest of the company collectively forgot how to use Google FFS.

If I remember correctly hitboxes weren't as broke as they were during the pre-patch Hawken test build. Something had to have happened in between.
