But, as for ressources, weapons and vehicles:

For weapons, this is the case: Once you learned the skill to use a laser attachment on your Pulsar, you need to unlock said attachment. For this, you spend ressources, once. Once spend, you have that laser attachment, and can always get it for free.

Now, for vehicles: Nothing has been said really. But there are two options:
They work like the guns, means spending ressources just once and then be always able to get the neat stuff, or they work different, and you have to spend ressources every time you want the neat stuff.

But heres the thing: You can still get a tank for free. The basic loadout, for tanks that mean no additinal Horsepower/armor/whatever, AV gun for the driver and AI gun for the gunner (according to latest PC Gamer Article), would still be free, and you can always get one if you need one. Now, changing the AI gunner gun to a AV gun would cost ressources (as said maybe once, maybe everytime you pull that tank loadout).




This should be pretty accurate. Gotta get higby to confirm/deny/explain better. :>
Yep, that's how I understood it to be based on what I've seen. But I'm concerned about the weapon varients that are apparently being forced on different classes.

Say you buy that fancy laser attachment while you're playing an Engie to put it on your Pulsar carbine, since my understanding is carbines are the only variants that Engies get to use. But now, you want to use that same attachment on the full-fledged Pulsar assault rifle variant when you're playing the Light Assault class. Do you have to pay for it again, since technically it's a different weapon? Or does that unlock work on all Pulsar variants?

I sure hope it's the latter because I'd hate to think they'd force people who like to play support roles part of the time to essentially pay double the cost to unlock the same attachment than a pure 24/7 Assault killwhore would.

Well, right now I'm a little nonplussed that it seems more beneficial in every way to just pull more MBT, without using gunners or lightnings. /shrug
