Did I miss the thread about Harasser?

[NewSith]

While I do understand that buggy is supposed to be a buggy, not an SUV, I wonder what happened to the actual jeep?

Don't get me wrong I love the very concept of the buggy, but this Harasser looks way too... I don't know... toyish? Especially with that gun that's no less than half its size.

[Ghodere]

Those are, very possibly, two different vehicles. It's been speculated that the top one is actually the Deliverer.

Nevertheless, the Harasser needs another design pass, for sure, here's for comparison:

Now, additionally, move the gun onto its back (trunk) a-la Technician from C&C Generals or Pickup Truck from BF2 Special Forces...

Didn't they say there's gonna be only one?

[p0intman]

i prefer the deliverer over the new harrasser tbh. make the harasser an actual buggy and not a quasi-car that looks like a buggy had babies with a volvo.

[Rothnang]

The car looks cool, but that weapon on top is way too blocky. It just doesn't look like it belongs and ruins the sleekness of the vehicle.

[Gonefshn]

I agree the main weapon needs to be on the back and the rumble seat needs to be the passenger side.

[Snoopy]

Yeah, the Harasser is ugly. I wish they would stop making helmets for 5 minutes, and make a better looking vehicles (I mean... come on, most vehicles in game are ugly).

[Hamma]

Yea the harasser screens were buried in another thread. Worthy of it's own thread though :D

[Brusi]

I think that it's suppose to be small. Small target, small wheelbase for manuverability...

Unfortunately, trying to pack 3 or 4 people (and their weapon systems) onto some that small, makes it end up looking a bit goofy.

[ThatGoatGuy]

Any idea on when the new buggies will be implemented?

The DPV is a 3 man buggy with a mounted .50 and a m249 for the passenger and doesn't look goofy or bulky.

The DPV doesn't look like an RC toy...

[Timealude]

um is it just mean or does the new harasser look like the old one? just with a higher top?

Old one was bigger. Two times bigger I think. Also the old Harasser was the ugliest of the the 4 ducklings.


EDIT: Not to mention that despite her ugliness, she was still managing to look like a respected coupe, just without windows or doors.

[HiroshiChugi]

Did anyone notice that the "buggy" screenshot was taken with a VS character? IMHO, the top pic is the NC "buggy", and the bottom one could be the VS one. After all, it looks like it would belong to the VS. It IS on a VS character after all... Or the top pic could be the basis point of the design, and the bottom one is the modified VS version. I'm just saying, they could be hinting at new faction specific vehicles... ;)

[Baneblade]

I want to know how fast they are compared to the 75 kph flash and 70 kph sunderer.

[Chaff]

.
.....I'm hoping something decently close to the old ES Deli variants are coming (soon ?).

Give us vast expanses of water, and vehicles the NC & TR can chase the VS over water with
.

We haven't heard, though we do know it has a rumble seat like the ATV.

Guess T-Ray just confirmed empire specific buggies indirectly.
