Nope

The new one is wider, but "thiner", but deeper too.

So the only direction it is harder to hit the new dreg int is from the front and only if you don't aim slightly high. Since when you're moving around the new huge ass of the dreg int is very easy to hit, one issue is that the nose dips a little so you naturally aim slightly lower than you need too.

I think the current issue if there is one, is that people aren't used to the new hit boxes yet. Aim high and you'll hit them.

How about doing what I say and make PPs last like 1/3 of the time that they currently do.
WOULDN'T IT MAKE SENSE THAT PULSE PROBES ACTUALLY .... PULSE? THEY LAST TOO LONG

They would still be an excellent Deprobing tool.

Butit would nerf them versus other fighting ships. Interesting....

And sbs.
You'd be able to see them long enough to trigger a "bomber sighted" warning, but not long enough to actually kill them without them being eyed by the base or an actual ship's scanners.

Make PPs weigh like the Aleph Res. It will be a PITA to carry them far from base.

New ones are on display in the art thread, at least most of them. The hitboxes are very wysiwyg. Where there is ship to hit, you hit, where there is open space, you miss. The exception is shielded ships, where the shield makes hits register even if you shoot, let's say between the wings of the stealth fighter.

I can dig up what pictures I have.

The ships are significantly bigger than traditional balloon-hitbox models to keep hittability roughly the same or easier.

I'm probably going to do a thread for PP since people have so many different ideas for it (and the giant exp thread sucks dicks)

This is becoming more and more evident the more games I've seen dreg ints. Regardless of how the hitboxes were changed it's harder than it should/used to be to pod dreg ints if they are just holding down boost and sidethrusting. While the old hitboxes were balloonish, dreg ints were still extremely formidable because of their speed. These new ones, when they're facing you, you have to hit a bullseye just to get a good portion of one mini to land.
