Wait, so you don't need a cert for a Magrider?

I am sure you didn't mean that. Anyway, I guess the unique flavour of the Magrider is lost now in PS2. My comment at end about driver/gunner with independent control of each might be a win for Magriders, or are they unlocking the rail gun on the Vanu MBT?

Which context? That is:
  • PS1-style, no - my comment stands;
  • PS2-style, don't know, haven't tried it. What I win on the swings (fun gunning for myself) I lose on the roundabout (teamwork driving and manning the main gun). Also efficient control (see below).

My comment was a half-way between. Until I try it I won't know.

To be honest, until I try aiming the main gun *and* driving in tricky terrain, I suspect that the dual role will not be ideal. Heck I know just driving in the heat of battle in PS1 I wound up a few times with a submarine and not a Vanguard. Or up a cliff. Or a bunch of other stuff.
