Curious to know how you guys feel about our newest vehicle.
Personally, I was pleasantly surprised. I was expecting the vehicle to be pointlessly redundant due to the existence of the flash, but frankly, I think it's a lot better than the flash. Not only does it seem to be faster (the nc flash has a max speex of like 85, I was doing 90 in this thing), but it also seems to be way more maneuverable. I was pulling turns with the harasser at 80kph that would have easily flipped a flash with no problem. The suspension seems better, as I drove over a hill and got some decent airtime with no damage suffered.
The most important plus I noticed while using it today is that it is indeed a viable form of fast attack harassment. It's main gun isn't the best in the world, but the vehicle itself is so big that people don't ignore it, like they do to flashes. I spent a couple minutes weaving in and out of a TR armor zerg during a big battle, and though my gunner got no kills (though he did get six assists), the zerg threw an awful lot of mana and HA fire at us before a lightning blew us- up meanwhile, our own armor line was bearing down on them. So, while the harasser seems tailor-made to be eaten by tanks and esf's, it can be great for trolling infantry AA and being a distraction.
So, yeah. Those are my thoughts after an hour of playing. How do you guys feel about it?
