Mech legs.
Is it just me or do mechs look weird. Their legy are tooooooooooo short/tiny. I think they should be twice the size of the reg. legs. What do u think?:steamhappy:

I'd imagine that the more compact the mech is, the easier it will be to maneuver in space.

i am too used to castraferrum pattern dreadnoughts to notice anything "wrong" with the legs.

original mecha had longer legs,but for some reason they gave them tiny baby legs now (you don't get to use them in mission,so it don't matter for them to be able to fit in small "protected"space.

I had assumed it was just the design choice the devs/artists settled on to make everyone's lives easier.

Having them small let the devs limit the hitbox for mechs to just the mech body, which goes very well with the choice to control the defense and shield stats solely by which mech body you use. And for a bonus perk, it keeps the mechs short so you don't have to dig out a massive area if you're using them for walking around on a planet.

The only thing that bothers me about how they have the mechs set up is that most mech bodies look like mech heads instead of bodies.... which makes them appear more childish rather than being "cool" space robots.

Yes you do. A game without mods is like eating pasta with no sauce, it works, you might think you like it, but adding sauce just makes it so much better and you'll never be able to go back afterwards.

The mechs are based off of Gurren Lagann's Gunman! More specifically, Lagann. Too bad we don't have a larger mech to combine onto, and a larger mech to combine, and a larger one, and a larger one, and then a larger one.

You should probably uninstall then because you are "cheating" every time you play. A lot of mods were integrated into the game during early access. By your logic every time you use a rail or turret you are cheating. Don't even think about playing as Novakids because they were also community created.
