TR Light Assault in a badass new helmet, sporting either a heavily customized Cycler or a Nanite Systems assault rifle.

Helmet still looks like the TR helmet we've seen in the past in basic structure, but it does seem to have new additions. Previously we usually see it with a full on face mask or at least a respirator over the mouth. This customization seems to be more of a throwback to the old school helmet and goggles we all know and love (though I prefer the face mask and respirator, personally.)

As for the gun: pretty sure that's a cycler... souped up to kick ass. May be silenced or has extra firepower, obviously a laser sight as well.

Damnit! These sunset shots make seeing things clearly a PITA! But it's okay, they're just appetizers *drools.* Can't wait for the betas to kick off!

Epic shot, i love the sun in the background. The engine looks amazing.

Also Mr Higby, if you read this, i would like to respectfully request a screenshot of a Bolt Driver at some point in the future. I'm not sure we've seen one properly yet (please someone correct me if i'm wrong) and i personally spent about 50% of my time playing PS1 looking down the scope of one :P

yea looks like a cycler with an attachment for the front.

The official PS2 trailer has a TR shooting a sniper rifle of some sort @ 0:29. Not sure if it's a BD or not tho...

Higby loves those sunset shots. I don't blame him. haha

I wonder if the devs could give us an estimate of how many armor customizations they're aiming for with each class?

SuperMorto · 2012-01-01, 11:18 AM

No shit that looks amazing

Canaris · 2012-01-01, 11:26 AM

Is that a customised Cycler he has, really reminds me of the H&K SL8 or SL9 series rifle... one of my all time favourite guns ever.

I am very curious as to what the laser-dot does. Increases hip-fire accuracy, perhaps? Basically, if each soldier has a heads-up display (ie, a targeting reticle floating in front of our vision), I'm curious as to what benefit the laser-dot would give beyond the standard targeting reticle. I doubt the laser-dot would be purely cosmetic (especially since it makes the character more easily spotted, being a long, bright red line).

Any thoughts? Or maybe someone's already heard what it does in another interview/Twitter?
