Some mystery vehicles in some of these screens. :D

[Seer]

I wouldn't attach too much significance to these mystery vehicles. I mean, the box art has something on it that isn't in game!

[Raejin99]

I think the dude was trying to draw a galaxy and some mosquitos, but the poor bastard didn't seem to get them right.

[MrVulcan]

but I bet some of those vechs will be in game soon enough ;)

and if thats not a bomber on the left there on the 3rd pic, ill eat my CR1 shin guard :p *then again it could jsut be a very very early galaxy and a reaver behind it, and reavers in the 4th, who knows :p

[BUGGER]

man in the 4th pic it looks like the guy was playin wit clay to make the TR guy....I mean he looks like some1 from mario or something. But the Vanu MAX looks ok....

[MilitantB0B]

Nice!
/em crosses his fingers in hope of more vehichles weapons by release.

[AztecWarrior]

I'd like to see a B-52-style heavy bomber. Multi-crewed. I'd also like to see the height limit tripled.

[MilitantB0B]

You know what I would like to see? I would like to see some reason to use ground transportation. I think that they ought to add a large ground transport the same time they implement platoons. It ought to be able to transport a whole platoon. That way, people might actually form ground convoys. :D Just a thought.

[AztecWarrior]

A naval bombardment boat would be nice. Give it four 75mms, two 20mm AA cannons, and a driver.

[Euroclydon]

If you consider how different looking the MAXs are from what they are in game, it's very likely those vehicles are a galaxy on the left, and mosqitoes on the 4th page.

[Incompetent]

do those guys in advertizing even give shit if the stuff in the ads is actually ingame.

[Jimbo]

I think it's likely those are drawing of how they would "like" the in game vehicles to be but they had to square them off to save on polygon count. Rounded things mean more polygons for the game to draw and more things for the game to draw means more "lag" in situations of high numbers of vehicles, players.

Disclaimer : This is just my opinion based on information from EQ designers as to why early EQ avatars had a sort of blocky look to them up close. And I may have misinterpreted it some but it seems reasonable.

I would like to see a bomber type vehicle though. Would be usefull. Unfortunately, it would be like a grief point generator unless you bombed some place where there is no battle.

[Gerico]

Looks like a bomber :P

hahaha, it would be like one of those moving GI JOE Bases. Would it be slow and lumbering and having weapons or just a ton of armor?

We'd have to have ship yards for this and then it would be madness. There would be at least three classes of boats. Nothing like this could happen just by patch it would have to be in like an expansion.

in either of these cases it would be sort of like a mobil base and that would add a totally new dynamic to the game.

Remember what I said 2 weeks ago about SmokeJumper's comments in CHAT?

Basically...SJ: "We are working on a few surprises related to vehicles that will add more value to your dollar"

I am supremely confident in an additional vehicle or 2 at launch for each empire.

[Euroclydon]

That would seem kind of silly to me to throw in some new stuff directly after and not during beta. Especially something that would affect gameplay so dramatically like a bomber. I'd think they want to test that in beta before finding out it's a flop at the beginning of release and then losing 10,000 customers because of it.

[Seabass03]

silly?

not at all, the game will keep being balanced from now until eternity. I hope they put some new stuff in or I may not even buy it.

<gets horny at the thought of a nc only bomber to make up for the lancer and cycler being overpowered>
