Yes, yes they are.

seems to be a thing lately. the Cicada and Stalker have back-canted legs for both the upcoming games for no reason i can gather past it's the current style in media for non-humanoid 'mechs.....

i can't say i love it, but well....
The Grey Death Legion? Dead? Gotcha, wake me when it's back.....

Because it looks better. I HATED the plantigrade legs on the Stalker, Jenner, and various other 'walker pod' mechs. I just wish MWO gave the Jenner 'chicken legs' too.
