Could be yours for only 150 SC.

Did anyone else immediately think of the first Megatron scene in the first Bayformers movie?

So in short:

NO.

What, ain't you ever heard of a Lance?

Yeah, 'cuz it's not like we have one-person Main Battle Tanks rolling all over the maps, wait...

Indeed, instead it'll have BFRs like this:

Note: Those Chainguns ended up being SLIGHTLY too big...

Two things...first off, they "promise" (Promises from game developers are like promises from politicians) that they wont bring BattleFrame Robotics (BFRs) into planetside 2...Second higsby says that they already have a PS2 BFR hot and ready to launch...So I see it as a possible opportunity for them to make money...hopefully you have good missiles by then cause I'm hell with one of the single man flight BFRs...death on robotic legs...So watch the skies and keep your fingers crossed that they don't release them.

Just an Egg to give some love to us Vets. Some nostalgia.

Wonder if there are other vehicles somewhere. TIME TO DATAMINE!

Great for a second I thought they were going to actually put that thing in the game. It didnt bring nostalgia, it brought, nightmares and flash backs of days that should have never happened. I still wake up at night screaming No BFR's please!!!!. This was not funny.

BFRs are what made me stop playing Planetside 1. They will do the same with Planetside 2. It was a funny joke, but for the love of all things... please DO NOT put them in. Focus on other planets.. space combat.. something else... ANYTHING else!!!!

Nice to see so many took tgis for real - reminds me of "Sarlaac Enforcer" class for SWTOR - losing faith in humanity daily.

Wait, so we'll have to drink fancy coffee, eat cheap ramen, and have outrageous credit card debt?

At least you still have some faith left to lose.

I don't see a problem with them putting in ps2 ''Style'' BFRs. Many things have changed from Ps1--> Ps2. Signature locking ANTI Vehicle weapons come to mind and will rip apart shields. Didn't have those in Ps1, Air actually has physics now (Planes) and if they play it smart, easy kill for the Airman(depending on the BFR's Loadout of course). Rocky terrain (bad for BFRS) Yay for tipping over.

I always liked the bfr in ps1 after the nerf. It would be nice to see something like that in ps2 again. They only have to be careful not to make it op

Baneblade · 2012-10-28, 05:54 PM

The BFR was SOE's idea of a heavy tank. It was a silly interpretation that backfired on them. However, the concept of a walking tank is not necessarily a bad one as long as it does not singlehandedly change the way the entire game works.
