SmokeJumperPS,
"Armor and vehicles sink (no swimming) except for hover vehicles (which can stay on top of the water for short periods of time) and the Deliverer, which has an amphibious mode.
If you stay underwater too long, you will drown. If you drive/fly your vehicle underwater, you will get stranded as your vehicle ceases to function after a bit underwater.

Physics also gives you drag underwater, so be careful with your oxygen down there. It might be farther to shore than you think."

...and i read somewhere that the vehicles get their power via the bases or something. Its range is enough for the continents but not for going sailing. it was said that you get slower and slower and at the end just stop in the middle of nowhere.
correct me if i am wrong

oh and by the way...my quest is over i am with the Vanu...finally:borg:

So its pretty much that you can hover over water for a bit and then your vehicle cease to function..
I can live with that.

Yep Lazare your right about the power deal and lossing power to far out to sea so no cross continant flying. But of course you would be right, your a Vanu.

Hamma

You will plummet into the sea and die :D

Lazare
2002-11-29, 09:52 PM
No, "I" wont. I am Vanu ;)

Tobias
2002-11-29, 09:53 PM
actually i think you just like stop (hit the contanets zone wall hehe) and sit there. Cant get back. So eject and drown =p


Unless your Vanu, then you activate your secret teleporter.

you obviously aren't smart enough to build a vehicle you won't be shot out of, so forgive me if i don't take your claims of intelectual superiority seriously.

So from the thing that Smokejumper said, I will be able to use my Mosquito as a submarine? Sweet! Just like the classic underwater shrike (or whatever it was called) from T2.

Hamma
2002-12-02, 08:04 PM
Only for a few seconds till it explodes.

And yes T2 was a shrike :D

Yep, we are the elite AND the underdog, w00t!

I just hope it stays that way, i like the VS best but if they ever end up to be the most popular i'll have to switch, i hate easy victories.

So you want to be on teh losing team?

I like your style, Dio. :D

I like the Vanu and will stick with them no matter what.

The Vanu will win even If the every one changes teams Because We have the advantage in most every field.

Seriously though, you guys don't have the advantage in every field, the dev's are making the game so that each empire is relatively the same with each their own specialties.

Didn't hear the usual Tobias-esque "Vanu rock out" deal in your post, so thought I would say something :)

Camping Carl

I suppose if you enjoy prancing around in purple armor it would make sense to be vanu...

Let's see if this works...

Yep and thanks! :)


Seriously in ANY game i prefer to be on the losing team (unless said team is losing 525125 games to 1 ;))

1-More challenge = More fun

2-More enemies = More kills/targets

3-People can't say you only won because you have the better team.
