Behind the right NC and the tree. Appears to have multiple seats for troops, maybe 6.
Thanks for cardiffgreens for the scans.

At first I took that for a tower, but now that you mention it...
Could also be a "bunker" that can be captured. Though it offers zero protection from incoming fire upon rebirthing into the field.

Hm. I had assumed that that was either a tower or some sort of small utility structure, but I could see it being a drop pod too.

Yeah, totally thought it was a tower further away, but if it is closer I can see how those pieces that extend off the top are like raised doors. You might be right, dude.

Interesting... Wonder how the mechanic would work for shared drop pods?

Interesting... Wonder how the mechanic would work for shared drop pods?It would probably be a thing where the squad leader selects a location and it send them all in together. Would certainly be an interesting mechanic.

Yeah, this might be a glimpse of the "limited squad spawning" we have heard about.

Yes.
Its definitely not a tower. Too small, theres a tree behind it.
I think on the right, just above the dudes shoulder, that thing is a terminal.
I think this is a deployable spawn point/equipment gizmo. Something engineers can build or that can be dropped from the sky.

Confirmed NC don't wear helmets usually?

Maybe they haven't finished NC helmets yet? Hopefully it won't be like Vanguard Saga of Heroes and the helmets/hoods didn't make it till like a year after launch :rofl:.

Looks like either a deployable field object, or a vehicle that has stuff that folds out. Not likely a vehicle.
