Absolutely dig the scale they've gone with for tanks. Now if only they were as tough as they look. That E3 footage really gave me the sense that they're disproportionately easy to kill considering what massive hulking machines they are.

Looking forward to seeing how they tune things in beta.

I hope that the engineer standing behind the tank is safe from explosions that hit the front, or else i will complain.

Sure he is, but he's not safe from that tank exploding in four shots.

QFT

lol and neither are the other couple of guys around that tank. Really the NC just need to nail that tank and the assault is over. It looks like they could drop a good portion of that group.

Seriously. Heh heh...you WANT to stand near something like that for cover. To move with it. Perfectly natural. But people just aren't going to be able to get the most out of these vehicles tactically of they're little more than massive rolling bombs waiting for an excuse to blow up every friendly in a 10 meter radius.

This exact issue is, for me, at the heart of the one vs two man tank debate. I think tanks SHOULD be very difficult to bring down. Even with anti-vehicle weaponry. But its hard to justify the survivability of a tank when they can be spawned and manned by an individual.

Now, if a tank requires 2 or 3 people to truly be effective, its MUCH more reasonable to assume that it would be difficult to take down. It is, after all, several people's worth of time and effort to operate.

It's kind of interesting that if you look closer there are actually two Prowlers and one Vanguard in the pic. Hard to tell because of all the smoke. Speaking of which I guess some TR threw a smoke grenade? At least I wouldn't want random explosions kicking up that much dust.

We keep finding new things in the pic. In a matter of time, we'll find a grunt in full zebra camo. Any second now...

Also loving the scuffs and overall wear on the prowler, it really adds a lot.
