...you are granted one change, and one change alone, to PlanetSide.

Fix a bug? Insert something new? Nerf another gun?

Please no retarded answer like "OMGZ ADD Teh COMMON POOL!!!11one" or "Nerf the fucking Jackhammer. I died while pulling out my Suppressor, reloading with AP ammo, then reloading with the right ammo".

Replace Surge with an implant that doesn't exploit net and framerate lag.

Add a flying deliverer. 1 driver, 2 gunners, 2 passengers. It costs 4 certs and is available at any base, tech link or not.

My change? Add "Reaver-mods" availible to each empire. Adding it has a pro and a con on the Reaver itself. The changes suit the empire. Note that these are not mandatory, you can still fly the Vanilla Reaver. This modification costs an additional cert point (just one).

Terrans: Replace 20mm cannon with double 12mm chainguns. Less shot power, higher rate of fire. Suits the rest of the Terran arsenal.

Vanu: Create "energy shield" that uses up afterburner power. Resists just as much as normal armor, however it overheats and requires some time to cool down, maybe 45 seconds for a complete cooldown. However, if you lose all power while being attacked, you have a severe problem, as you have no afterburner. This device will reduce the amount of armor by 15%, and handling will go up 15%. So basically, you're a sitting duck if you lose your shield.

New Conglomerate: Replace 20mm cannon with double 25mm multi-barrel cannon. More shot power, but slower rate of fire. Add 15% armor, which decreases handling by 15%.

In all mods, default rocket armament is reduced by one crate, and weapon ammo is increased by one.

Also high on my mental list was to institute the DoD recoil system. Moving isn't a huge penalty like Raven Shield, but it REALLY kicks, you can fire as fast as you can control.

I would like to see Grappling hooks (made for Reinforced Exo grunts that don't have any flight vehicle options except a galaxy which you need a pilot and for a solo grunt this is sometimes hard to come by) for contenints like Ceryshen with high cliffs that take forever to go around in a ground vehicle. it would also be useful for climbing base walls not nearly as fast as a VS MAX but still effective.

It may be a lofty goal, but add a true reason for fighting, short of just because...

Make it something big, long lasting, and make it difficult to do. (NPC guards?)

Nerf the fucking Jackhammer because I started shooting my target with AI ammo before he shot, plastered him with nearly 30 rounds before dying, and he STILL killed me.

(Or clamp down on the health exploiters please )

TRY AND DO SOMETHING ABOUT THE LAG AND STREAMLINE THE QUITING PROCESS. WHEN I CLICK QUIT, THAT DOESN'T MEAN I WANT TO BE ASKED IF I WANT ANOTHER WORLD. IF I WANTED ANOTHER WORLD, I WOULD CLICK "CHANGE WORLDS" ALSO, THE GAME FREEZES UP IN THIS LIGHT BLUE SCREEN AFTER I CLOSE THE WORLD CHOICE SCREEN AND I HAVE TO DO A WARM REBOOT ALMOST EVERYTIME I QUIT.

I like Azteks ideas with the reaver, but why stop at the reaver?

Make vehicle modules like CC is doing for bases. They could range from speed to fire power or just be totally unique.

But my one change would be....

More empire specific items. More empire specific weapons, vehicles, deployables, and maybe like a different empire armor. Hehe that would be cool.......

Only problem I see with that is people bitching............but whats new?

Send a team of large mafia thugs to the house of everyone who whines about the jackhammer of exxagerates things to reinforce their nerf post (not inspired by you Lise, inspired by yet another bitch thread about the Jackhammer).

Get rid of the silly damage drop off on Medium Assult weapons by cutting it by three fourths. Surging Aglie Heavy Assult monkeys would be pissed but it would be so worth it.

Or

Make it so you can only respawn at a base and deacrase the running speed to more of a real life march rather then a sprint. Make APC's more useful.

Or

Make Assult Buggies not require a tech plant so more people would pick them up.

Or

Redesign the bases into militarily defensible positions rather then the current state of them being open air churches without a roof.

Or

Add man carried machine guns damnit. An Mg-42 would be the most useful thing in Planetside.

Make AMSs move half the speed, have half the undeployed armour, double the turning circle, make them 5 times as loud, allow the front glass to be broken and the driver pulled out so he can be brutely beaten to death.
