Galaxy able to pick up vehicles - Page 2

It should be able to carry Flash ATVs, maybe even Lightning tanks (for the Lightning case, it should sacrifice all other seats)

That seems a bit extreme.....If that was the case i dont think anyone would use the cert basically making it pointless to even have...

that would be pretty kewl, cert your gal from a troop transport into a Carryall variant

I think this will be more to do with Buggies or Lightnings. I think tanks are the focus of a ground push.

Or atleast if vehicles can be carried, they should have a lowered flight ceiling. and perhaps less armour. Or player seats?

Would be funny seeing 2 gals coming in, expecting 24 men. And getting 2 tanks on your ass instead.

Would be nice to have the lodey back, that's what Higby said in one interview, that they were thinking about it. Don't know what it's role would be if the gal can be speced to do this.

There was nothing like dropping AMS's and tanks behind the front lines for flanking in PS1.

I personaly think that it would a be a very nice idea to be able to cert into beeing able to carry vehicles,aslong as it's balanced(and by that i mean that a single vehicle should take like 6-8 infantry slots).

I personally would love to see it setup as the galaxy only carrying ATV's,Buggies, possibly lightning tank?? Assuming the tank fits this go around. They then could bring back the loadstar for the heavy carry (sunderer,MBT, lightning) except this time give it a better look other than the shoe box.

They could really streamline it into a C-130 type look. Allow the lodie to carry more than 1 vehicle this time also as I'm sure the dedicated lodie pilots would really like that. Tactical use it would be great for transporting heavy armor into captured territory way behind enemy lines with fewer loadstars.

When Jen and I sat down with Kevm0 out at SOE we toyed around with putting vehicles in the back of Galaxies (just to judge size) The lightning would not even fit in it (if it would it would be VERY close). He said it's possible it may happen someday as an additional cert.

Doesn't need to fit Hamma.

Yeah, why I would prefer a new Lodestar for being more original design aesthetically wise.

I think galaxies should be able to pick up vehicles to a certain point.

Here are my thoughts. You WILL have to be certified in galaxy cargo (or what ever they choose to call it) to carry a vehicle.

Next they should have tiers of carrying capacity. Maybe the first tier can only carry a Flash. Then the next level can carry a two Flashes or a Sunderer. and then the final tier can carry a Lightning tank or two Flashes and Sunderer or two Sunderers.

I don't think it should ever be possible to carry the main battle tanks. (aka. Magrider, Vanguard, Prowler)
