Have you seen any vanu sniping (or trying to snipe) infantry with the Lancer?
Had to ask because they're always going on about how awesome lancer snipers will be.

I'll never be a MAX. I've been wanting to be NC for a long time because for some reason I thought they were the underdogs but now realize they are quite the opposite. Kinda disappointed that gauss is gonna be used by everyone too. Oh well as long as I have fun. I have all beta to decide what I want to be.

Honestly I think the AR's are balanced...
The Gauss has higher per-shot damage, but lowest ROF and the smallest mag. The Cycler has the lowest per-shot damage, but highest ROF and the biggest mag. The Pulsar has average damage, average ROF and an average mag. Hell, I pick up cyclers to use for fun when fighting TR. I'd do the same with the pulsar if I didnt have to swap out my bullets for batteries... that just takes too long when under fire

How are the hand-grenades? Ya know, damage-wise...
Any personal favorite MAX suit? Why? Can you 1-shot a reinforced with a phoenix? Manueverability of Phoenix? Getting tired of answering our questions yet?

Yep. But to get a chaingun you need 3 more cert points, so not everyone will have them... at least in the beginning.
Also I'd be surprised if it doesnt get toned down. People are probably whining about it in the beta forum... but then I wouldnt know, as I *still* cant access the damn site

Awesome info guys keep it coming. However I do have one question. What constitutes (sp?) as being medium or heavy gunner? is it the armor type alone? Or does it involve what one certs in for weapons? Or is it a combination of the two?
Can't wait to get in there with y'all! Only a few more days! |

Well I hope so, because I like how the nc look, I prefer damage over rate of fire, and I despise goggles. I'll probably go nc and use the gauss just because I love how it looks in first person, even if it does suck. Any videos out there showing a gauss firing, and Vash, you got any cool screenies?

Grenades are great, especially plasma nades
They're real handy for softening up defenses around control terminals or for killing off a room of dug in but wounded enemies, you can 'highlight' infiltrators with the plasma nades, as they leave a nice green flame on whatever's in the blast radius. Damage wise, I'm not sure... I think it all depends on how close your target is to the blast. Also, the mine sweeper nades and jammer nades have recently been rolled into one, so I imagine they'll be seeing more use. - I cant really answer the max question, since I prefer reinforced armor. I'd have to say the TR AI MAX is the best spawncamper though Just anchor between the little equipment terminals and blast anyone that spawns in hehe - The phoenix isnt very effective against basic infantry. It's really designed for armor (aircraft and maxes included). It's fairly manueverable, though it cant pull off the wild U-turns the Striker's missiles can. You can fly a circle inside the walls of a base though. - nah, not quite yet I just hope I'm not giving out any false info

Damage of reaver rockets?
What are the tower weapons like? I coulda sworn they had automated weapons. I'm to lazy to check tho. It's been said that the vangaurd is currently overpowered, is this true? Seen many vanu using the lasher? Cause it looks like a horrible weapon to me.

Sarah, could you expand on that a little? Do you mean medium and basic assault certifications?
- The gauss doesnt suck by any means. It's just designed for medium and long range battles, and the heavy assault weapons are designed for use once you're in the base. As a side note, I think the lasher is nicely balanced. It's really powerful indoors, and the lashing effect has a decent range, so it kills pretty quickly. However, it has a fairly small mag (20 rounds), a less-than-average ROF, and the energy blobs travel relatively slow, making it fairly worthless outdoors. As for screens, the guys here at PSU have posted better screenies than I ever could... I'm not much of a photographer
