Fix the Delorean Hit box back to Dominus as it was intended to be

[rkrams]

During hit box generalisation Delorean has been wrongly fitted with octane hitbox instead of the dominus hitbox to which it was originally fitted.

Due to this delorean feels not so great with hits and precision.

Its still one of the visually good looking cars and is great to navigate aerially.

Current Delorean hitbox:

Delorean with dominux hit box which matches it well:

This will help hit more precisely and harder with delorean and not feel off, as it will visually match better with hitbox.

i just wish they would bring back the good old merc :( played like 500 hours with it... it was a defensive powerhouse and it had so much strength and power to its shots and clears.... and the trade of, slower steering was okay in my books

well i dont hate the octane, but the mercs hitbox was just such a relaxing gamestyle... supporting the team by clearing the ♥♥♥♥ out of the balls, doing great passing plays while your teammates were already up infront..
not that its not possible anymore, im still doing this with octane, but the merc was just so much fun... i felt like breaking the crossbar and the posts everytime i took a shoot :D

i only dislike the octane because i use dominus but now because i'm a moron and got myself a white octane and white zomba i can't refuse to be a moron by showing my car off everytime to laugh at those people with their expensive car :P
paladin is the same case as merc.. and ripper too
ripper was smaller but funnier.,. same goes to paladin which was not loved by many but still a fun car
masamune was the hybrid of breakout and dominus which was amazing

not it all changed..

dlc's are like useless but i kinda understand psyonix due to them making cars having similar hitboxes such as dominus and delorean which were basically the same but the only difference was that the delorean had a poor turn radius.
same goes to the hotwheels car ( forgot the name tho ... the hotrod one )
hitbox of backfire and turn radius of masamune .. amazing..

sad that they changed those :l

[DoKo_O]

Yeah really sad =( i remember aswell, as the takumi dlc just came out, it had even stronger shots than the merc, i remember having no struggles to get a 130kph goal in with the takumi :D and now im sitting on 105 average with octane :P but to be honest, i like the looks of the octane, its "generic rc car" look appeals so much to me :D

and i got a white one aswell, paired with lime dune racer and pink and blue colours, its a true rainbow car :P

ya they really need to expand on the hit boxes variation, i mean people still main only the octane dom or batmobile mostly on comp, and those who like dlcs and other cars use it for fun and looks and not because of the standardised hit box.

I mean the earlier htiboxes like of merc, ripper etc while different werent liek too imblanced gamepaly wise.

It just feels stale when everythign plays like octane or dominus while nto visually matchign them.

Deloren now feels like a twig compared to before. Its not that u cant paly with it but the differnecce is a bit noticeable.

agreed, also if they would have kept the merc for example they could bring another car or two with its hitbox, missed opportunity was the jurassic park jeep, it would have been fine with merc hitbox since it "looks" like a brick aswell

[rkrams]

ya the jeep with old merc brick box would have been so cool and suited it much better.

[DoKo_O]

Maybe we should open a reddit post and spreading it with everyone who liked the merc :D maybe this way we can get one or two more "generalized" hitboxes back into the game :P

[rkrams]

ya should definitely do that saw quite a few topics like that on reddit asking for old hitbox.
