Prowler is three-manned

[Ouroboros]

Who called it, woot!

Here's the proof.


Edit:
Look at the bottom-left corner. Three dots on the tank.

[Flameseeker]

This has been known for a long time. Sorry to bust your bubble.

[Ouroboros]

Ummm, yeah, it's always been a guess, that is hard fact, buddy.
Anyone that chats on IRC will know what I'm talking about.

[Deadlock]

so what? one guy drives, one guy does the big guns, and one guy does the machine guns?

doesnt really matter to me since ill be in a vanguard but its nice to know ur enemy

[1024]

hehehe....vangaurds rock

[Ouroboros]

Alright, um, I thought I would be helpful and show something that shows concrete proof that the Prowler is three manned. Instead, people start bitching about empires...

This forum is turning official...

[Deadlock]

no bitching from me, i had a concrete question... just didnt want to get flamed by people thinkin i was a tr and not knowing something about their tank

The 2ndary gunner is most likely optional, you can have one for the machineguns or you can have 1 guy operating both.

Reason for why i think the secondary is optional: http://www.planetside-universe.com/m...php?img_id=343

It says secondary gunner can use, not need a secondary to use the machine guns.

Annyways, Ourobous is right. The secondary gunner had not been confirmed until yesterday, only speculated and assumed it had one due to the magasine i linked to there, but it's kinda old and could have been changed. The shot is the first hard evidence.

i dont know how often a secondary gunner will be useful, but i spose if there is a massive battle against both infantry and vehicles then the secondary gunner may be useful.

[Manitou]

The secondary gunner is optional, but unless someone is manning it, it will not fire.

The main gun is primarily for tank battles and hard targets, while the chaingun is effective on personnel, air, and lighter targets. But I promise you, if you run around without both guns manned, it is a lot tougher to survive.

[Zatrais]

Ah thanks for clearing that up manito

[Deadlock]

so do all tanks have that option or just the tr? could see it applyin to the nc tank but not really the vs

[Zatrais]

TR only.

Rest of the tanks are 2 man.. cept the lightning thats 1 man.

TR also has the only 3 man buggie.

[Deadlock]

sweet, now im straight. knew about the buggie, had no clue about the tank... thanks

course that brings up an interesting though for the vanguard... if that insainly long barrel is programed as a solid object, i wonder if u could spin the turret and smack soldiers that were right next to u before u unload with the machine guns... probably not but its a funny thought

3 Man buggy is actually a heavily modified Pickup Truck
