Pretty underwhelming...

Called the spartan laser months ago, can't wait for everyone to pick it up and start owning vehicles who don't see it. It'll be nerfed useless within a few weeks, after they cash in.

Phoenix spam will be as fun as ever.

TR will get boned with the striker unless they make it decent and not just an annihilator that does less damage per missile but fires volleys (this is exactly what it will be).

Don't understand the "new" flash, it looks the same as the current one. Did they make it fatter or something?

VR is finally here, that's good.

Account level unlocks is the best news in months, but feels like it should have been here from the start.

all flashes will now come with seats on the back for someone to shoot from. also, there are new abilities such as the cloak for the flash, awsum

Yep, Flash now has a Bitch Seat...

...Of course I now wonder how one sits in it, and how it affects their ability to aim their weapon...
...From the looks of it, you'll sit backwards on back and set your feet on the bumper, which means no Flashtank...

That's what Im thinking how it's going to be. Maybe with about the same FOV of a flash mounted gun or a bit bigger. I can't see a balance in letting the passenger be able to fire anywhere to the front of the flash. 10-2 on a clock tops.

But dude, we'd finally have seperate driver/gunner tanks!

Mongoose from Halo?

Guy sits on the back with rocket launcher and you've got 2 man tank hunters

The pheonix sounds more and more like the Valkyrie missile from CoD

I'd say the Valkyrie Missile from CoD looks like Phoenix from PlanetSide.

No it wasn't. Wolfenstein was, if I'm not mistaken. If I'm wrong, correct me please. If it's not Wolfenstein, it was Doom.

I wonder with the new flash, whether or not they will end up having a module to add to the back of it that will slap a little turrent on it?

I know it is currently weapons free, but you never know.

I would have liked to have seen a side car in the design instead of a bumper bitch seat...lol

But I guess beggars can't be choosers lol
