WAAAHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[NeoTassadar]

I'm enthusiastic, but worried about Sanc Strikes. But the carryall concept is great. *Wonders about capacity and armor*
Platoons. Bombers.

[Sp3ctre]

But what happens when a sanc gets invaded? Does the whole empire get destroyed? They can't temporarily stop an outfit because players pay for the game, so restricting time is a bad thing to do. Maybe they just get shamed around the world and the sanc resets

It won't be all of NC vs just the enemy getting hit by the sanctuary strike. It's also NC vs the other side as well. Why?

Because you have to hold the lock on all 3 continents. It's not locked of VS owns one base on it and it's also not locked if TR shows up and takes a base. And by the sounds of it to me it's probably going to require ONE side to hold all 3 continents. Not 2 held by NC and one by TR.

That would make it extremely rare. Probably only something TR will pull off.

See? I told you my perdiciton would come true? I wasnt lieing......man....bastages


no one belives me

[Slab]

Great.

A weapon that a moron could use to destroy a friendly invading force.

"Must be at least this smart to fly this vehicle."

[Spinnaker]

err gusy there is an AA gun buggy dont forget that muahaha ppl wil fear this when the gunner find out that a 50' rounda in a guy looks like

[Revolver]

Hopefully when that happens the weapons lock will be lifted.

[Jbaz]

A bomber eh... MrVulcan finally got his wish.

[Chanfan]

The bomber surprised me, since they seemed dead set against any kind of indirect fire or mass area weapon. I'll wait to see how it plays out, but I am worried about griefers and idiots. Also, worried that it will further cut down on the already lacking outdoors fights.

Having the AA Buggy to balance it is a nice touch.

The sanc strike isn't that surprising, as they've hinted at it. It's good as it's a holy grail goal to drive for, but seems to be about as likely to happen - I can't imagine a side getting all three sanc warp gates locked.

Platoons are what I'm looking forward to the most. More tools to organize > more tools to kill with.

Outfit competitions sound like they have potential to be fun - hope they mix it up so that one outfit just doesn't dominate.

[Clubfoot]

I just hope the bombers are not anywhere near as powerful as the T2 bombers (ie instant death for any but the Jugs on the very edge of the blast radius with shield packs on). The only thing that kept v-pad games playable was a limit of one ( two in some mods) bomber per side at any time; and remember it was at least theoretically possible to quickly get away from an area with your jetpack if you heard the whistle of falling bombs. Imagine a squad of 10 bombers flying over a battle along the flight ceiling. Most people are probably going to give up and log off after repeatedly dying immediately when they step outside.

[2coasts]

bombers will be cool.

now let the devs do their job.

[SweetTater]

If they make the bombers offensively powerful, make them equally defensively weak. Make them real slow, require air escort, or always show up on radar. Have them not be able to hover but have a minimum speed they have to fly at. They way they can't just hover and drop a ton of ordinance but have to do actual bombing runs. They only place they can stop is at a dropship base which has a way of stopping them.

[Airlift]

I think they should be very powerful, but also have very limited bomb capacity. The more dominant air power becomes, the more feasible it becomes that people will include anti-air in their plans.

next stop


tactical nukes.
