I've seen MAXs leg it at high speed off into the distance, and screen shots with "You cannot fire in run mode displayed" I just got myself my first max, and I cant find the key to make it run. I'm VS.

I tried pressing J (vehicle speical ability)
K makes me jetpack
Surge cant be used....

So how do I go into "run mode" Shuffeling along from the tower to a base is getting on my nerves because some asshole reaver always spots me.

[Edit] dont tell me to do the training becasue the training crashes at HART familiarisation, so if it was in training, I cant train.

A MAX in run mode pulls about 42kph. It's kinda lame. How many more things can they add that diminish the usefulness of vehicles?

Okay now, Maxes can run faster, have more firepower/ammo, can jump higher and have more armor than rexos, so , answer me this, what in the hell can rexo do that MAX can't?

DEr!? why would a shitty cevlar vest ever be able ot do more than giant mechanical armor with giant mechanical muscles?

metal shirts can only weigh you down machines can realistically give you super human powers. And you cant hold other weapons in a max that you can in a Rexo!

Maxes can't hack doors or bases. Rexos can drive (some) vehicles, gun for vehicles. Rexos can heal and repair themselves and others. Not to mention all the weapon choices. You don't have to wait 5 minutes for a rexo either.

Get into a base on its own
hack terminals
spawn at AMSs
no time limit on spawning (maxs are like vehciles, if you die, you have to wait about 3 mins to put on new max armour)
Heal themselves
Fix their armour
Move faster in battle (if you can't circle straffe a max to death, you should just give up now, even I can do it and I'm relativley new)
get into more vehicles
use gun turrets
fix things like spawn tubes
Use command uplink tool
pick up special items like llus
get about quicker in buildings.


etc etc...

Survive for more than 5 minutes.

Decimators have all but made MAXs a joke now. Your survivability as a grunt is better than a MAX suit because you can surge, heal, repair, hack, gun for any vehicle, and switch weapons specific to targets.

Decimators are a pain, yeah. They seem ok though, against maxs i mean. Out in the open you can usualy jump them.

What pisses me off is when I get into a crowd of NC/TR in my quasar, start mowing them down, then some guy surges up to me and fires a deci point blank. When I say point blank, I mean, his decimator it touching me when fired. He survives, I die. Not cool.

Guess I can live with that though. There are other things that annoy me more.

VS is uniquely able to deal with Decimators, but TR and NC are screwed. Most of the time you only need 2 decimators to kill a MAX and thats some serious TTK for the ammount of power MAXs are supposed to have. I really think Decis need to be tweaked down a tad for MAX suits. Its really laughable how easy it is to take out MAXs and it just shouldnt be
