AMS defence

[Real Mulambo]

Why not make the AMS two man and have a single gunner position on it.

In reality there is no bloody way that such an important vehicle would have no defensive measures except for squashing people.

Just a thought.

NOO make it sqaush people better 8D

[KeviN]

The invisibilty bubble (when it actually works right) is a strong defense.

[Batousai]

yea no guns on the AMS, cuz all your going to get is some noob idoit whose going to fire the damn thing while its cloaked.

[Real Mulambo]

disable guns while cloaked...only for defence while travelling

Thats not that much of a great idea, what kind of gun would it have? If its just a chain gun then its not going to be much of a defense, and if its a cannon well.. that's a little to much firepower for an AMS...

I think keeping the AMS gunless is a good thing. It goes back to the whole team-play issue. If you want a defense for your AMS, have a buddy get in a reaver/lightning/whatever. This game is about teamplay, not individual play!

well said

[Real Mulambo]

yeah right.......and how many supported travelling AMSes have you seen?

[SilverLord]

No gun please, the AMS is getting reworked and is going to be much better when it does.

[Lartnev]

Use spitfires and be happy

Oh, I see them quite often. They're usually the ones NOT lying in their own smoking debris. Besides, my point is this. By adding guns to AMSes, you only encourage people not to join up with a good squad and work as a team.

Just because ya dont have the coordination to wait for an escort/escort an AMS doesnt mean theres a flaw with the AMS itself.

[Desperado]

AMS is worth two certs and is a portable spawn point, it's fine how it is

Quite a few.

Spitfire turrets are not good for AMS defense; a ring of spits will give away an AMS to air units.
