The new TR Raider ROCKS - all the new vehicles are great. New Info, maps with towers, great job Dev's! It looks really good so far. Plus we have the weekend to play - test server will be up. Go kick the tires on this one - this is looking to be a great patch. :D :D :D :love: :love: :love:

Haha. Mars, Nosurrender, Orange, Incomp, and I were driving in raider all night. We went out, killed two enemys and came back like 10 times. The raider is definatly a good piece of equipment.
The aurora takes a rexo to 5hp in one shot. The Thunderer can down a reaver in 2 or 3 shots.

I got on the test server after the XP fountain, my god are those awesome. when I got hit by a fury it was almost like a striker hit, maybe more powerful. the aurora, thunderer, and raider are all awesome.

Well I tried out the raider, damn sweet! Still would have preffered the battle wagon name, maybe there could be a new AGN commercial (Bubbas used car emporium? :p)?
Logged out and tried the Aurora....I remember there was all whining on the OF where people were like "It's gonna have no decent range, blah blah blah" but range is damn good, and it looks like a lot of fun to use :) The Orange tint on the windscreen is damn nice, anyone else notice that?
Fury is damn fun to drive like the other ATVs, just wonder how powerful it is :)
New AMS design is nice and functional :)
Didn't get to try the new NC deli, but the session stats look great! :D
Looks like a great patch from the devs :D

http://img30.photobucket.com/albums/v91/Fragmatic/Jawesome.jpgholy fucking shit!!!!!! I remember those guys from T.V. along time ago! They were the best!
On a side not: I wanna buy a new PS gamecard real bad right now. All these new stuff for PS are really cool, and I wanna get into the game again.
Can someone give me thier opinion on each deliverer?

Thuderer: Cannons fire a bit slower then 75mm, kills infantry with a dead on hit, almot takes out a basi in one hit, lots of damage. but slower fire rate, and the direct w/ little splash makes it hard to hit infantry,
The other two i can say
ORANGE

raider: horrible accuracy at long range but once something gets closer it gets tore up, the flash will give you a seizure and reduces visibility but that really isn't a problem if you have all 4 gunners because when I was gunning it we took down thunderers and auroras in about 30 or so seconds fast vehicles are a little harder to hit along with aircraft infantry if they get in close enough also shouldn't have a problem taking it down and thats about it's only disadvantage is that if you run into about a squad sized group of people your gonna go bye bye pretty quickly.

Fury dropped me before I even saw it when I wasi n my MAX.
So the thunderer is categorically superior to the Magrider against infantry and air...how about vehicles?
Lartnev
2004-05-22, 05:39 PM
It's scary against vehicles. Like rbstr said, almost kills a basilisk in one shot...
Superior to the Magrider? No. Whilst it's possible that the gauss cannon does more damage than the heavy rail beam, it lacks the insta-hit factor and accuracy of it.

The Fury is hard to aim, you can only point it vertically. You must be pretty far out, because if you're too close you cannot turn. Yet, the rockets were suprizingly good, it was like a faster, more powerful rocklet.
The Raider's flash was wayyyy too much, I couldn't even see straight. =/
Never tested the others out, but the killspam was pretty much all Delis and ATV's. :D
Rbstr

Yeah the mag is definently better, its more accurate, is near insta hit, and in a better vech.
The Thundered also lacks AA power unless it gets up way close and hovers

Raider was good, since it was using 20 mm on all guns. Don't think we will be as happy with it when they drop those to 15mm.
Rbstr
2004-05-22, 06:40 PM
are you sure it was doing 20mm damage, i thought the bug was only in the type of ammo used

I love the new Harasser! (goes 120 kph now if ya didnt know) yum...

How the fuck did that Raider bug(BATTLEWAGON, CHANGE THE NAME BACK) get through?\ Wasn't there an internal test?

:lol:
Well this is why we have playtests but I would have thought they would have checked up on that :)

When I get back to playing more often the Black Hawks will use Thunderers for Ground Operations and the Standard Deli for Air Craft. I was on TS for about 5 minutes, the new vehicles are great.

yea I thought the thunderer would fit right in with the black hawks.

Yeah its gona have a key role in my Infantry division

what's the Aurona like against other vehicles, infantry, and other empire specific Delieverers?
Lartnev
2004-05-23, 07:40 AM
Not sure, but I'm guessing getting hit from the full clip will hurt!
Onizuka-GTO
2004-05-23, 09:47 AM
but seems like the NC types seems much more powerful, like the vanguard....i hope it doesn't become like that, i hope it gets balanced for all vehicles before it goes public...
Lartnev
2004-05-23, 01:00 PM
It is more powerful, but is more like a MBT in refire rate. Vanu get a nice refire rate, especially if they release the whole clip in one go. And going up against a raider is like going up against a wall of lead.

Th Aroura is a bitch It deos crazy damage to infanty it took 4 of us our with one shot on the playtest
Onizuka-GTO
2004-05-23, 01:56 PM
that's nice to hear, so i guess NC deli is more anti-vehicle, Vanu is anti-infantry and TR are anti-everything? ;)
Rbstr
2004-05-23, 02:26 PM
Yeah for the most part, but i would say the TR is good against air.
but realy they are anti all eveything, the VS does good AV but can't realy hit air. The Nc can kill a rexo in one hit if you can manage to hit him(hard to do) but also hiting air is hard, do to not very fast projectile, and the TR is basicaly like a regular Deli with 2 more guns
