I can see people playing the MAX Units for the other factions because they look amazing. I've showed each MAX design to my friends who never played Planetside before, I'm trying to get them excited for this game though by linking them to all the images and videos. They all said straight away that the Vanu one looks horrible but lot the TR and NC MAX design.
As a Vanu fan I really want it to change because it would put me off using MAX armour for them. It could serious have an impact on balance too because people want to feel like a badass and not a gay crab lol. It just needs to look more meaty and mean like the other two because one looks like it came from Fallout and the other like it came from Terminator. Maybe the Vanu one needs to look more like..

Though I do want to say I love the design of everything else that I've seen!
