do maxs...maxie...maxies (gawd dammit, i need to find the real plural for this!!!!) have specific amunition or do they use the same sort of bullets as every other gun (vs excluded, damn duracel eaters)?

the reason i ask this is, asuming they're every day bullets, say u have a tr ai max, but u also put some anti-vehicular bullets in his amo bag. couldnt this sort of double the ai max and make it an av one too? i mean it wouldnt be as effect as a real av max but it would be close id think.

No specific bullet types. Loaded through inventory. Heard rumors circulating about it having a backpack that functions nearly the same as a trunk, permissions and all.

I believe the plural for max is "maxi"

Unless the plural of box is boxi, I'm not prepared to accept that answer :P

They (MAX's) store their ammo in their inventory...

Annyways, i think the TR AI MAX uses 9mm bullets in the miniguns.. same the handheld ones and they have AP rounds so i'm betting it can use AP rounds.

MAX inventory is atleast 18x9 btw hehe =)

Okay, I combed over some usage sites. Since MAX is an acronym, the plural is MAXs. Like CPUs--no apostrophe necessary.

You are correct seer!
*/me gives seer a cookie*

I will never forgive you for spoiling my attempt to turn the plural of MAXx into the same word as a femine product :-P

Well deadlock, the TR max AI weapon is a 9mm rotatory chaingun, its anti air is a flax cannon, and its anti vech is a grenade luancher. Some how i dont think those all fit in the same gun as 9mm grenades are about the size of cherry bombs and a flak shell is like 20mm.

I'm pretty sure I read that they can store for others in their inv, which is accessable through the big, hulking backpack that functions like a trunk.

It's only the TR MAX that has the backpack thing, it's apart of the model and not a trunk...

MAX's can carry supplies for the rest of the group simply cause their inventory is so massive... it dosn't have a separate trunk aswell.
