Possible TR MAX Changes?

[1024]

It may have a shorter TTK, but 2/3 of the TR MAXs have burst-fire. This mean you can hit more targets at once. Crowd-Control abilities.

I like that concept art for the "barrage" MAX. Duel laser designators on each arm, and rocket racks on shoulders

Until you've used the Pounder you really can't have any idea how little splash damage it does. We're talking beamer damage. And if you are trying to tell me the burster is useful against infantry, well, you'd be way off.

A MAX is not an infantry unit. 4 seconds is 2 Decis.

1) Try going on the offensive with a TR max and you'll see how great the splash damage is. *beep* grief. *beep* grief. *beep* weapons lock. And for those who think that the max pilot is a bad max pilot, to not get grief would mean to simply not fire.

2) Try using the Burster for anything other than randomly spamming the courtyard or taking out low flying stationary aircraft. Hell, try killing someone in standard in a Burster when they run up to you with their Suppressor and AP rounds.

3) Try using any NC or VS max without rotating more than 90 degrees to the left or right. Better yet, stand still and fire at people coming up a hall at you. See how quickly our "special" ability gets you killed.

NC and VS maxes are both offensive and defensive weapons. TR maxes are spammage at best, useless in an offensive close quarters base fight in most situations, and technologically inferior in terms of their "special" ability. If you'd like to stand still while you get Deci's shoved in your behind, sign up for TR unimax. Otherwise, keep your jumpjets so you can fly over walls and vehicles, or your shields so you can leave the fight (without having to unlock yourself) and get repaired.

Bleh.

All I can say about this is it's really long overdue. Now we only need to cross our fingers and hope it gets done right this time and we don't follow the usual trend with changes to TR.
