I don't know how you feel about the Marauder and the Thresher, but I for one (from my NC days) will miss the Enforcer which won't join us in Planetside 2.
Raging around at breakneck speeds, kicking up dirt, firing rockets into tanks like Mad Max. Great fun.

yeah give it some time, stuff will be added in for new content, because a stagnant game = boring = no people play = no sales for zebra camo

Im sure almost everything, be it weapons, vehicles, continents, and the like will make a return in this one. Just time will need to be given.

do you really think the game will just continue with 2 tanks and 2 planes? cmon bro, cmon. more will come with time. give it time.

f2p games usually release new weapons/vehicles every month or so.

BFR's!!!! :D:D:D

j/k

though actually they could be done but would just need to be balanced proper.

Not something to approach lightly for sure......

But I have faaar bigger dreams for future PS2 content then even BFR's honestly.

Don't forget they can't just throw things in until they see how it balances with whats there, so starting small is good.

Otherwise they might just decide that single crewed giant death robots are a good idea.

Edit - actually, not sure how you'd add more planes if the one you have is completely customisable to fill whatever role you wanted it to. What would be the point?

"I want something faster!" - Okay, put a speed mod on the ES plane.
"I want something with more armoured" - Armour mod.
"I want a buggy with a rocket" - Add rocket launcher to quad bike?

etc.

The only reason to add more vehicles is to add ones with different amounts of crew or roles the others absolutely can't fill... so yeah, something between a quad bike and a lightning in terms of being a 2 or 3 man rapid transport might be viable.

Exactly, this is how it seems the gaps are being filled.

Which is lame. I want more vehicles. I dont care if we get them post launch. I want variety. Imagine a very fast agile interceptor.... or an armored buggy with an HMG.

Or a tank with 5 man crew. With 2 or more turrets. And maybe anti air rockets.

Enforcer was my favorite vehicle in PS1 just because of how crazy it was driving or gunning one. Good times... I await the Assault Buggies with great anticipation.
