I think they look sick. Makes me think of armored core.

Only little girls play on the TR with their little nerf guns. Come to the NC my brother and you to can have a MAX with the killing power of a small tactical nuke.

What?! Nothing I've seen so far looks like the animated headache that is Bay's Transformers.

No... Gods, please, no. *starts refreshing TB's youtube page repeatedly in a panic*

Love the NC Max.

NC otherwise weapons though? Look like high tech, gaudy bricks.

TR has class.

That Higby + TB live stream video made me think the exact same thing. That MAX is NC's pride and joy far as I'm concerned.

No...The Jackhammer is. I will part with the MAX before I part with my Jackhammer

How do you think a ragtag group would look, if anything the PS1 NC max didn't fit the faction. Layered plates is totally what they would do to create protection if they have limited military resources.

Traitor.

I fail to see the problem with that.

Wow now that I think about it... Scale up the NC max 100x, allow for not only weapon modular attachments, but also jetpacks and other goodies, and BOOM the long awaited armored core sequel we've all been waiting for. None of that kinect bs coming out.

If he is willing to betray the TR how do you know he won't betray us?? Those TR vermin are always looking for a way to get intel. I say we shoot him on sight...just to be on the safe side.

Thanks, but if Twitch.TV worked for me I would have watched the stream.

I gotta say, I LOVE LOVE LOVE the MAX for NC. I still think the helmet just looks a bit off with the body, they took away the rollover cage from the concept art. It looks a bit like a football helmet at the moment.

I'd love to see some alternate helmets appear for it personally.

The helmet looked alot better when the horns where added. It gave it a kind of shogun look which I thought looked really great. In all seriousness though. The NC MAX does look absolutely Amazing.

Very much disagree.

The horns did look better than they did on infantry though.

NC max suit does look kool but to choose a faction over a max suit appearance?

I will never even use a max suit.. I am a behind enemy lines spec ops fast moving type player.. the max doesn't come into play one bit for me.

Hopefully not too many players are deciding factions based on max suit appearances.

They get to decide whatever they want, who cares what their reason is for playing a game. If they like the color blue more than red then good for them, not worth any thought by anyone.

If a person is really looking forward to playing a MAX, why not?

true people can decide for whatever they want

doesn't mean it makes any sense or can't be commented about.

Relax your horns.. this is just discussion.. it's just an opinion son

Personal opinion I guess. Maybe it was the infantry that looked better. I'll go back and watch the video again.

Horns to signify the works of evil. I approve on NC uniform.

TR should have halos as an customizable option

I agree with the other two. People pick for all sorts of crazy reasons. Has no impact on my gameplay.

Michael Bay needs to be murdered with chainsaws.

Yes. Exploding chainsaws that are covered in sirens and flashing lights. I want his death to be just as unpleasant as my theater experience at any of his movies. :lol:

Razicator

Unfortunately the footage of his death will only be shown in short 5-second flashes with shaky camera's, too much HDR and random shots of his abs/tattoos, while in the background cars crash and buildings implode.

You think his movies had shaky cameras? Ever seen JJ Abrams' Cloverfield?

The guys in Transformers aren't shooting the video. The guys in Cloverfield are.

There is a valid reason Cloverfield is predominantly shaky-cam. Transformers has no excuse.

You can add bacon (red and white tiger camo) to that as well. NC BACO MAX!

NC = Emeraude

Can't argue there. Haven't played AC2 for a while, Zio matrix were the medium parts with sleek desgin, yeah?

Emeraude and Zio were the main part manufacturers, and yes Zio was the "sleek" design while Emeraude was the "boxy" design. They both had parts in every category.

I always ran with the "sleek" design companies in all the Armored Cores. It's too bad 5 was a flop.

I like them all about the same, Thou I do like the boxy look of the NC reminds me of SC2 Terrans.

The TR Maxes look way better IMO.

I'm a bit more of a hard-surface edge fan than of the rounded and sleek designs I see on the TR and VS MAX. I find the VS design kind of gaudy and too thin on the bottom half area. TR is definitely great looking, but those rounded joints give me a bit of a megaman/astro boy vibe and I'm not feelin' it.

Now the NC MAX is just amazing. It looks vicious and sounds beastly, for me it gives the best illusion of sheer power and weight behind it.

I also totally thought bumblebee when I first saw the NC MAX in game.
