Troop transport


I like to fly around, even if I can't shoot anything. Let's say my aircraft is purely customized for troop transport, am I going to get any bonuses for transporting troops to the front lines after the objective is completed?

That's a good question?

Is Hamma around to answer that?

Yup, the game is awarding you for just about any positive activity you do.

Personally, I'm looking forward to the tea-bagging bonuses, and the certs to unlock for advanced tea-bagging. This is critical, psy-ops activity against enemy empires.

That's good to hear. I especially like flying with transport vehicles and the realize i contributed a lot towards the objective too.

Something to do without firing a shot is great besides fucking around and doing absolutely nothing.

Re: Troop transport


Hmmm.... galaxy would fit the bill. Just a small opinion here, In PS2, the Sunderer looks like it should have more beefed up wheels so that it'd look like it could tackle the terrain prsented. Right now it looks like it can only roll out on roads, so some larger wheels with large treads is in order. other than that, i'm really liking the HD upgrade!

Re: Troop transport


I'm pretty sure I heard in a video a dev say that galaxy pilots who deployed their ship for respawns would get points when people spawned from it or used it to refit. Not certain that'll be in the final game, but it's a good idea anyway.

Indeed, from what I have heard you will get points for people spawning on your vehicle. (deployed galaxy)
And, (REALLY not sure but this is possible) you will get some assist type points for the kills and actions people perform for a little while after they are deployed from your transport. So you drop off a squad at a base you will get some points if they happen to capture it.

Re: Troop transport


I always liked to be supportive role and carrying troops from one position to another was always awesome, this must be in for sure.
