A MAX suit is not a vehicle. It's classified as armour. Hence the term "SUIT".

We're forgetting that the description is not official. The 11 vehicles?

ES Buggies: 3
ES Tanks : 3
AMS
ATV
Mossie
Reaver
Galaxy

And the only guess is the ATV. We're still missing a lot of old PS1 vehicles there. Still room for MAX suits. They may come from equipment terminals, but I still have to fight them with heavy ordinance like any other vehicle Realistically, I expect them to be classified as weapons instead however.

Matt mentioned Liberator in one of his posts here, and i have to think that there is also a Deli. Lodestars function can/should be an AMS variant.

AGAIN. MAX Suits are classified as armour, just like Agile and Rexo and Standard and Infil suits.

I'm pretty sure the ESMBTs and ESBuggies count as 2, not 6.

*Whoosh* Reading comprehension fail.

And I know there would be more than the vehicles I mentioned (get the joke now?) I was going by the "pre-order" description of the game Which was a really low estimate on their part.

You have to look at it from an advertising perspective, not the perspective we see. Bigger numbers = bigger eyeballs.

I'm pretty sure we had the 11 number before the pre-orders went up. We were discussing which 11 vehicles they'd referred to not long after FanFaire. If you consider the new skills system, 11 seems reasonable.

ESMBT, ESBuggy, ATV, Buggy (Harasser/SG), Lightning, Mossie, Reaver, Lib, AMS and two of the Deli, Lode or Sunderer.

That encompasses all but one of the vehicles in PS1 minus the ancient tech and phantasm. Oh, and the ANT...but I wouldn't be surprised if that had disappeared.

Again...there's Earth-like trees on Auraxis, a planet we reached by traversing a wormhole. Realistic got thrown out the window a long, long time ago.

I'm fairly sure we got confirmation in the Reddit Q&A that inventories won't be in PS2, so being able to loot people would be fairly pointless as we'd have no way to pick up their equipment anyway...
