People from getting in a wraith with a infilitration suit on, and just run people over? I know theres an implant to see it, but I cant see that many people having it, and even less having it on to detect. I mean, If you get a cloacked wraith, does it make a little disterbance like the the dark templar in starcraft, or does it still kick up dust to be able to see it. I ask this, because If there are no tell tale signs, I can see a lot of people just coming out of nowhere and driving over a mob of people and get away before they know what happened

They still kick up some dust...and they're not very tough. A couple of collisions with people and the cycle wouldn't be worth much, I think. I'll need to check that to be sure, but that should be the truth

It totally depends on the mass of the vehicle doing the hitting. The Wraith is definitely the lightest and frailest of all possible vehicles. Since you used that one as your example, I was describing the balancing factors you would face if you started trying to ram folks with that light quad cycle.
Try running folks down in a Vanguard. You should be very happy with the results.

Have you ever think of creating a single playable demo for PS ?
Like they made for Neocron ?
It could be really cool to test the 3D engine, a bit of gameplay and for compatibility test, no ?
Just an idea, though.

No off-line component is planned. We're working VERY hard to ensure that all training you could possibly want is covered inside the game already.

It is...so far. Of course we'll be adjusting balances during the beta process.

Wow.... they just REALLY WON'T SAY ANYTHING about the max suits. There have been countless questions about max suits, and they have answered many, but haven't actually said anything informative!

The MAX is one of the questions we sent to the Devs - hopefully that will be the next one they send back. Check in Monday for the latest Dev Question post.

Yes... I remember that question all to well. I've been awaiting an answer to it ever since you guys sent that list out. That's one reason it bugs me the way the devs won't let anything slip.

And by the way, thanks MrVicchio. I don't know what we'd do without you to look through the official forums for us lazy people. Besides, it's difficult for me to go onto those forums and resist the urge to kill some of the n00bs there.

I concur. Thanks Mr. Vic, I don't care for the official boards that much either. As long as you keep sending us the infos from the devs, I don't have to go back.

I don't visit those forums because of the dumbasses not the n00bs.

A stupid question i can handle but a 13 year old kid who gets picked on at school so he lashes out at anybody on the net is another story.

yes little kids are annoying sometimes.... espicially know-it-all rich kids, not to be racist american youth are particuarly bad in this respect (not rascist, im a bastard to everyone equally )

to put it in perspective whatching Oprah the other day (i was very bored, n it was only for 10mins tops) and some of the 'brightest kids' on it were asking questions of the kid outa harry potter, this was one of their questions "do you speak normal like us outside of the movie, that language you spoke was weird" hows that for ignorant..... (the harry kid was English)

If you were watching Oprah, you got issues man. It's like a toned down Jerry Springer and you expect the kids to be our average? Bah! I do admit though that most of our kids are idiots and lack character.... I blame it on the chicken pox vaccine. The kids don't get chicken pox and they're not buildin' character from it.

Give em a break, their kids. They didn't know, and they asked the question. Now they do know.

I thought being ignorant and finding things out was what being a kid was all about.

Get me some kids from any nation and I am sure that I can get some ignorant questions out of them.

BTW, bored is not an excuse for watching Oprah. Now go stand in the corner for a half hour and think about what you did.

yes i kno, shameful act.... whatchin oprah, (even though it was ooooh so brief)

but my point still stands, those particular children have been brought up in a society that encourages ignorance, theses were supposadly some of amreica's brightest (they were about 12 btw), what sorta 12 year old has no idea about accents and countries being different? it is just common sense really, and these kids had none of it.

in hindsight this was probably a touchy subject, i meant it in a totally un-insulting or un-racist manner....

it was simply a shock to me that people that age could be so bloody ignorant (especially ones who are aparently "some of the brightest"), in a world of increased tension i would think it only reasonable to teach kids a little about the world and the way in which it works, in my (extremely limited) experience most conflicts have either been over religion or because of ignorance...... both of which are unacceptable causes for war.
