Here are the screenshots that are on this forum for the MAX.

Maybe it's just the angle, but it looks to me like the only thing protecting the face is a transparent screen of some sort. I dont' know what it is made of, but I somehow doubt it would stop a sniper rifle.

For all these people saying that a sniper rifle shouldn't be able to hurt a max (on the whole forum, not on this thread as much), how do you suppose we kill one?? If a sniper bullet doesn't even scratch a max, there's no way in hell that any other bullet will either. Rifles simply have larger, more forcefully driven bullets. If that bounces off, there's no hope for any other gun that uses bullets to hurt one of these things and we're back to forcing everyone into carrying a damn rocket launcher of some sort. I don't know about the rest of you, but usually the only people with rocket launchers in the games I play are noobs.

A max that can't be hurt by bullets just seems like a terrible way to force us to play how they want us to, so I hope that's terribly inaccurate and they can be taken down by regular shots.

-- I'm amazed, btw, that this has been as polite and cordial as it has. Maybe all the anti snipers are waiting to attack together.
