waitwaitwait, the in game as in MWO? I've not ever seen a Raptor anything in the game.
Sure Black Hawk and Firestarter are in the game, but their OmniMEch version supposed to be larger, bulkier and blockier. I guess it doesn't matter what they look like, but you'd think they put more effort. Raptor could pass what moded as Flea, but I'm not so sure.
Yesterday I created this compound image. Click on the thumbnail to see the full-size picture, please:
You can see the
Black Hawk (already in the game) and the
Black Hawk-KU (to be added the next week).
As you can see, PGI added just one rectangular box on the side of the torso and one rectangular box on the top of the torso. Then they slapped three sets of pipes on the 'Mech. Adding a small box on the leg and adjusting the shape of the knee pad completed the job. Ninety-five percent of the new
Black Hawk-KU is still the same old
Black Hawk game model.
If you can do this with the
Black Hawk, you can do the same with the
Firestarter. You could just a few hoses on the 'Mech (see the Dark Age
Firestarter), slap some cosmetic items on it and call it
Firestarter II. Easy job.
The
Blackjack II is more angular than the standard
Blackjack, but again this is nothing what a few angular bolt-ons could not solve.
