New Mech Animation

Rho posted an animation for the mech we've seen in the update on her twitter, just to let you guys know.

From Rho's twitter: " i present the X5C-1 mech!"

 

Awesome!

 

.. MUCH much better then the other. No shadows used to hide artwork when it walks. (pasted from other vehicle thread)

.. is this one different enough to not count as a duplicate thread? Anymore info besides the animation/name?

 

good

 

Looks good. Are those 50cal chain guns on each side?

 

Looks like it to me.

 

Hard to say, though it appears they are attached to a pretty big mag/battery on the rear end of the mech

 

Awesomeness.

 

This looks great, much better than the old one.
The devs are making great progress.

 

I need this game now!!! Okay got that out of my system, and now I just have to say that it does look damn good. Keep up the good work devs.

 

You know what? I think everyone can agree with you on that, jezuit. (That sounds cool in my head... Jez - oot )

 

thank god they updated it from this: (which is still on the FAQ page btw)

 

For those who want to compare:

Old one:


New one:


(Size is about the same, top one is zoomed in a little more)

 

Dont care what any of the devs call it. Im always gonna call it the "Prowler" and they cant stop me!

 

I love how the feet spread when they hit the ground. YEAH, THE NEW ONE ROCKS!

 

Prowler's fine! It can be called that too, or whatever everyone else likes! X5C-1 is actually a personal reference. I keep lots of versions of files as I work incase I need to go back, and notate them depending on how drastic the change is. The original "mech" from before ended up with the filename "mechm3". "mechx4" was a random experiment, so the one you see there is mechx5. It went through three versions, and one final tweak, so the file I ended up with was "mechx5c-1".

Useless bit of info I know, just thought I'd explain where the name came from

Yup, they're Browning M2s. Still used even in the future! There'll probably be other kinds of guns they can use too.

 

Yes, but will they have grapple arms for loading cargo and battling bizarre acid spitting creatures? That's the real important question!

 

I love the detail of the left leg appearing through the window during movement.

 

Looks imba I hope I get to fight some big dinosaurs with it

 

Browning M2's should be used in EVERY future.
