The Return of BFRs???

[EVILPIG]

Planetside 2's FB page put this out today.

It seems they are entertaining the idea.

Deviant Artist “DougFlinders” shows us what a Vanu Mech could look like in PlanetSide 2. Would you VS soldiers find a weapon like this a valuable addition to your arsenal? We want to see more of your ideas!

I Loled right when I read this, but at the same time I had flashbacks of the nightmare that the originals were.

'BFR's in 2142 were very balanced.. But ofcourse that was 'old dice' who were legendary game devs.

They were balanced............... "old DICE", I tip my hat to you sir.......

the size seems odd, bfr's were much large than half a person, that looks more like a larger max. i don't see bfr's coming back.

Most say Big F**king Robots, but it is Battle Frame Robotics. Mechs.

Dude, chill. Just some dude that did some artwork, and the community team put it on Facebook like they did with other fan made stuff in the past.


We all know what would happen if BFRs make a return.



Anyway, that thing looks nice. Would be a rather fine bullet magnet. :>

No scheisse Sherlock.

They didn't just say, "Hey, check this out!". They are actually asking the community. I bolded it for you.

As the fan art and its subsequent posting would strongly indicate, this is counter-factual.

Does SOE want to turn all of the vets that returned away again? Do it and it will do just that.

I know, I agree. My point was that it appears to be far from universal knowledge that this was a massive historical clusterfuck.

Walking Robots were not the problem with BFRs. It is silly to hate the notion simply because of what the form of it entails. Would it be somehow better if they had tires?

Hate the concept of a mega death machine, not the idea of a walker mech.

Cut it out with the BFR hate, there is no reason to assume SOE will repeat the largest mistake they ever made to PlanetSide.

have you paid attention to the development of this game so far?

I'm not seeing where you are so optimistic.

I could post negativity in every post and still look like an optimist to you.
