Comparison of Faction Vehicles

FraBaktos · 2003-01-02, 01:50 AM

Which Factions do you think have the coolest vehicles? I think they all look pretty cool but how can those NC and TR vehicles top the Vanu hover vehicles? jawdrop:

they are friggin cool. Why have cannons when you can have beams? Havn't you ever played homeworld? BEAMS ARE SUPERIOR !!!:

I mentioned this somewhere else, but, the bottom is left wide open...has to be the weak points on their hovercraft!
Beams, yup I do like sunbeam bread! Too much tech. can kill ya!!

mmmm VS, one big EMP and everythign they have will just............not work.

The Vanu vehicles will allow them to attack quickly but both TR and NC have stronger vehicles so unless they cn use that speed advantage the Vanu 1 on 1 will lose if the players are equal

So a landmine would really F*** them up?

That's IF landmines affect Vanu vehicles

And you think the TR or NC will be any diffrent ?

Traditionall land mines would not be affected by hover tanks but here we are a few years into the future and the land mines prob have motion sensors and whatever... Hover is good cuz less moving parts = less things that break..

I havn't heard annything about the Vanu vehicles having less armor and more speed than the rest, as far as i know thats only been confirmed for the MAX suit. Now it is kinda likely that the Vanu specific vehicles in general will share the MAX's traits but it hasn't been confirmed yet.

But annyhow, i think the VS heavy tank will have the hardest hitting gun. I mean look at it, you have to move the whole damn tank to fire the big gun... so going by the harder to use = better thinking it should be the best gun =)

Speaking of EMP, if those weapons existed, which I'm not sure they would, They'd basically be the artillery of PS. Everything, even armor and suits would be useless.

There is no MAX tank. It's like a tank but it's a suit. The heavy tanks will haev the biggest guns and most armor by far.
Also Heavy tnaks are harder to use. They need two people. Gunner and driver

Zatrais · 2003-01-02, 09:44 AM

theres EMP like grenades =)

IIRC, the NC Vanguard has the largest (hardest hitting) gun in the game.

And you know that because?

Last time i checked theres been virtually no info released about the VS tank what so ever.

Incompetent · 2003-01-02, 11:08 AM

he knows that because its common knowledge, the NC tanks advantage is that it has a huge gun

Zatrais · 2003-01-02, 11:19 AM

Ah, so you've seen the inside of the Vanu and know how much of the gun thats inside it's hull. For all we know it could be bigger than the NC one.

I can't remember reading that a dev stated that the NC tank's gun will do the most damage. Show me a link and i'll belive you. If not then i'll make up my mind once some info on the VS tank has been released.
