Does armour effect the vechles you drive?


Just wanted to know this as i plan to maybe have medium armour with some assault weapons plus an anti-vechle one.But i want to be able to use vechles...does the weight of your armour effect what vechles you can use or not?,i mean if i was in MAX armour will i be able to fly a reaver etc...?

Max armor cannot enter any vehicles at all. Hell those things can barely move their legs to walk, let alone bend enough to sit down. Thatd be funny tho... hehehe..... [cough]

About other armor, I dunno but I would suppose that if there was a shot through windshield or from a buggy(theyre "open" vehicles) I would assume that if would have the same impact on your health if you were OUT of the vehicle. Not sure tho.

Certain armors can enter certain vehicles. Agiles can go into anything and drive, shoot, fly it..whatever.

Well, I think for most piloting of air you'll need agile and tanks too. That's just speculation. We don't know much yet. Only that the Agile is the "vehicle" armor.

I believe both the Galaxy and the big APC (Sunderer?) have a couple 'slots' for MAX's. Someone correct me if I'm wrong

As for what certain armors can operate, I'm thinking it's something like this:

Basic (newbie armor), Agile and Infiltration suits can enter any vehicle position.

Reinforced armor - Can make full use of the buggies, can operate the 20mm cannons on the Galaxy, and can fit into any 'basic infantry' passenger slot.

MAX armor - Can only be a passenger in the Galaxy and Sunderer (I think) that each have 2(?) slots specifically designed to carry the hulking mini-tank.


Again, this is just speculation on my part, so if someone has *real* info, I'd greatly appreciate it

Sputty: The Deliverer APC does not, but the Sunderer Heavy APC does, AFAIK.

How do you know? They haven't given out the exact numbers it can carry. It sould seem useless for it to carry MAXes on the ground....They can run.

MAX's are not huge immobile lumbering monsters that can barely walk and move their arms. Just look at the gamespot vids.

It's official. The Sunderer CAN carry MAXs. So can the Galaxy.

These are the only two vehicles that can at this time.

Thanks SmokeJumper. For me, Im going reinforced in a galaxy. I may have to jump out and do infantry, and its not like reinforced is hurting me in any way.

Woot hi Dave!


Sputty, I think there's a little video clip floating around that shows a MAX unloading from a Sunderer. I cant quite remember where it is though
