BFRs

[Cadaverous_Fly]

Well this sucks...
I have wanted to get planetside since the day it came out but with my 16.8 kb internet connection it wasn't even humanly possible. After more than a year a form of high speed actually becomes available to me in the shape of a wireless connection which has a minimum speed of 6 meg's (6000Kb). I liked the though of planetside because it was futuristic weapons and vehicles using modern tactics on a planetwide scale. So now thier goin to add some Big F**cking Robot's to the game. Am i the only one who sees many problems with this? Unless their like 20 cert points everyone will have one and it will turn a good planetwide warfare simulation into a game of mechwarrior with unrealistic damage moddelling and 3 mechs (which by the way you only have access to one of. The SOE team needs to work on making the game work better with teams and more tactically. They need to fork out some better balancing already and now their throwing some huge robots into the fray? Some things that might make these robots less unbalancing would be if you could only spawn them out at Sanctuary or that each side could only have 10 active in the field at one time. Or pherhaps if they were just a wee bit smaller and had less destructive weapons.

I never got the point of a mech. Aside from looking really cool they should in reality be sooooo weak. I mean if you shoot a vehicle in the tracks it can still shoot and in some cases still move. If you shoot a mech in the legs it falls over and blows up. And why of all places would they put a shield generator on the back where it can be shot at why not inside???!!!!!

Ah i'm done ranting now and I feel much better... thank you for your time.

{edit}: These BFR's could work if they were smaller and less powerful but had very high speeds. Because the only point of having a weapons platform on legs intead of on treads or wheels ( a tank ) is mobility maybe the BFR could go through really dense terrain that a vehicle could not. And besides 60 meters is like a 5 story building.
I'm going to look really stupid if this is all a hoax...
