Notice the prowler farthest away...you can see the two points on the tank which are firing. May give some insight as to the primary and secondary turret locations.

Looks to me both tanks are firing at the same time.

Also the tanks look like they are just placeholders :/
Unless the skin is all grey with a small dash of red.

Crap...I think you're right. I got all excited

My god, and i was sure that i was the crazy guy here that jumps to everything.

Guys, this is a concept art. In a concept art, you want to show a concept for the one big thing in front. Everything behind it, everything else is just filler. So ignore everything other than that Max unit with his DRCG (Dual Rotary Chain Guns :> )

They got the mossies right...

Speaking of the MAX, whats the center barrel for?
looks too big for bullets

[Baron]

I included the Concept Art caveat in my post kind sir

[Aractain]

When people say MCG do they mean the DC MAX cover??

I second this motion!

Also, what no US luv? This is only in the UK version? Can I still order it?

[Vash02]

Anyone else thinking that helmet is too small for that guy? Look he cant even get the goggles over his eyes!

Like Canaris said. MEGA chain gun!

So has anyone found out if we can get this in the US?

[basti]

Vash, i wold assume that center part is used to have the actual gun rotate around it.

8km ? Thats about 5miles x 5miles . That's like the bottom corner of the Isle of Wight in UK , or a the size of a medium town.
Not exactly what I would class as a continent.
Is that measurement in real 8km , or in game scale ?
I guess it would take you an hour to walk across it , or 5 mins in a tank , but still ,not exactly a walk across Australia.
Think I'll *** out and buy the pc gamer copy nethertheless.

Its obviously in game scale, as comparing it to Real life requires a lot more than just simple math. You need to take travel speed etc into account.
Even then 8kmx8km sound small, but is extremly big in a game. Take a look at your home for example, check it on google maps or whatever, use your home as center point for a 8km x 8km square. How much of that square have you actually seen? Besides that, in RL 8x8km may not contain much, but in a game, space is used to give players the opportunity to have fun. A vast map would just thin out the potential for fun, especialy because its less likley to see other players with every additional km added.

How it exactly plays out has to be seen. But i still wanna know how big cyssor is these days.

[Geist]

I feel like I'm going to follow my old PS ways. Mainly infiltration with a side of MAX.

DRCGs FTW!!!

[Mastachief]

I believe that solsar is 8kmx8km ish
