You can! The hack port is at the end of his arm, the one with the gun on it. If it doesn't seem to be working, try un-cloaking.

How can you hack a max since a person inside of it all times. You must be thinking of a vechical*the max is techicnacly considered a vechical. Who knows why?*

I'd like to see you be able to get out of your max in a "MAX endoskeleton", one rifle slot, no pistol slots. It'd be interesting to bail out of your max and lock it up for later.

Yeah, but then a cloacker could get in a friendly max with his infl suit on, go to an enemy gen, shoot it a couple of times, get out of the max, place boomers at the door way, and wait for the people. *yes it would be hard to do, but it could happen. i think.*

how do you get enemy maxes then?
id love to stick a boomer on one of there arms though and wait for them to go by another one and make it go boom! 8)
make them all paranoid as hell and have to engineers called lice checkers to look um up and down or something lol.
Hide the Boomer! 8P
You can't get into an enemy MAX suit. They are the only empire-specific equipment that can't be stolen, jacked or traded for.

No, MAX is not a vehicle, per say, it's Power Armor.

MAXs are most defenatly not Vehicles. They are not bought at any Vehicle station. They are listed as Armor at the Equip term. You can not eject or bail from a MAX suit. You can purchase them from Towers and equip terms. They do not gain shields from the AMP station facility link benifit and finally, they can move around indoors

I know there armor i was just wondering if there was someway of getting them. (not asking for response now)
And im jsut enjoying the conversation man you dont have to start calling people names.
And it would still be fun to then sneak up and put shit on a max or sneak in enemy bases stick boomers or whatnot on tanks persay and way for them the organize and set them off it were possible or is it? lol
especialy if they added prone and you could get under htem while there parked or in other hard to see spots one way to get rid of the complaint form magriders if there worried about not being ablo to hit things.

I personally think it sucks that you cant stick a Boomer onto a Vehicle or a MAX. That would go MILES in making Sabotage and working the edges of a battle more enjoyable

Sticking a boomer on a Max or vehicle would be a bit overpowered. I kill plenty of maxes and vehicles the way boomers are.
If they allowed boomers to be stuck on maxes and vehciles, they would have to nerf the damage.

Perhaps maybe maxs but not vehicles. If a vehicle is stationary long enough for you to place a boomer on it, shame on them

I did not say a MAX suit is a vechical, it is CONSIDERED a vechical. That's why a deci will take away so much armor. A desci takes 400 armor from vechicals and aircraft, and 50 to infatry.
You should be able to stick boomers on MAXs and vehicles. I mean, if it can stick onto a wall why not a MAX?

Boomers got majorly nerfed(another step in Project "Infil Gimp") when they could no long be stuck onto(or anywhere near, it seems) a wall.
I do look back fondly to my days as an infil CE, but I do not regret forgeting the cert.

It is getting fixed in the ballance patch supposedly

They stated in the Dev chat that the weird placement of deployables is a bug. Will be fixed with next patch... Thank goodness.
I was about to forget my CE because of it.
