Notice the lowest side of the chin where the gun is located, even IF the head could turn it would bump into one of the legs or scrape heavily against it.
Ummm...

Sure looks like that head's turing to me.

With turning i mean a 360 circle like Markus pointed out. Thats what the person also meant who asked that question, looking totally backwards while the rest is standing the other way. He compared the ATST with vanilla 2142 battlewalkers, just so you know.

Yes, the head can look around, but only in limited ways.

Right of course the AT-ST should be able to turn its head, its not like the AT-ST, would have the turning arc of an owl. Try turning your own head past your shoulder and tell me how far you get.

even thin legs are very scary when you pop around a corner and bump into them

Does the top of the AT-ST rotate? (like the 2142 battle walker) so u dont have to turn the whole thing around. I didnt see it rotate in the trailer. NVM i just noticed it rotates

Sorry, but that made me laugh.

Believe me guys, the only complaints you will ever have with these walkers is going to be because they are pwning your azz left and right.

Dont think the legs will be a major point of discussion, let people play for a few hours when the demo is out and they get used to it no doubt.

Heck, i'd bet half the Imperial team will be running to the walker to drive it first.

I dont think its the fact the legs are too long or they are bent in the wrong places (infact we put together a video of our walker and the walker from the movie and the walking animation is absolutely spot on) its the fact the legs are quite thin that give the appearance that they are longer. WE hope to make the legs abit thicker at some point...tho probably not for a while.
