[Zatrais]

Proof!

also worth to note that he says MAX's usually don't get past 2x zoom.... guess they have a built in zoom for some weapons :)

[Ludio]

Nice find. :D

You might want to post this in the Game Discussion section, first time I have seen a post in the Lounge that should be there, usually the other way around.

[Zatrais]

yeah, i tought i was in that forum...

Someone move it to the game discussion please =)

MAXs w/ darklight vision.. the ultimate base Heavy D

[Tobias]

Now with the shield implant any max can have the NC's special ability!

[Zatrais]

Nope

the NC shield has it's own powersupply and it's a soupd up version of the shield..

NC max can in theory have 2 shields

[NapalmEnima]

That would be one TOUGH nut to crack. I suspect the NC MAX shield will rate around 200 - 300 points... with armor a bit thinner than the TR MAX... but still thicker than VS.

Probably.

Kinda?

I wonder if a haywire grenade (or whatever it is they call 'em... the ones that disrupt electronics) will disable shields. It'll probably mess up your radar, but what else? Taking down shields makes sense. Perhaps it would disable other implants as well.

[Zatrais]

yeah

I'm thinking like that too Napalm

I'm thinking
650 for VS
750 for NC
800 for TR

well in the description of Jammer grenades on PSU, it states that they will not affect MAX armors (for instance the NC shield capability). Will the jammer screw with implants though?

Why did this get moved? Not complaining but just wondering. It seems like a game discussion to me.

Edit- NM, either someone moved it back or I'm going insane

[Arshune]

NC max+shield, second wind and regen implants+a narrow hallway or chokepoint to spray shotgun ammo in=the ultimate anti-personnel weapon

I suddenly don't know if I wanna be a VS max anymore :eek:

[Arshune]

I just looked over at a stack of games on my TV shelf, and I thought to myself "holy crap, Samus Aran is a MAX." I must be going crazy from anticipation.

[Camping Carl]

I always imagined nc max having the most armor...

[ABRAXAAS]

yeah I cant wait to try it ,there gonna call me teh tank killer :D

[Zatrais]

Theres 3 MAX weapons setups, i'll use the TR for an example:

Anti-infantry: has 2 miniguns

Anti-vehicle: has 2 grenade launchers called pounders

Anti-Air: 2 flak guns on each arm for a total of 4 barrels o flak.

each MAX suit currently needs it's own cert.
