Aside from what Accuser mentioned, the advent of skins also means that profiles are more important for identifying friend from foe. That capability could be very frustrating for some people, either getting killed by what they assumed was a friendly or shooting down an ally, etc.


At the moment you cannot pick up enemy weapons. There is no real inventory or "bag" like in PS1, you simply have a load-out and can only change it at a resupply terminal or on re-spawn.

if an infiltrator can land c4 on a tank while cloaked that is gonna bring a whole new dynamic without a doubt.

It was mentioned a long time ago that the graphics rendering for vehicles in all three empires was a chore they were not planning to implement. It (for whatever reason) is not simply cut and paste re-coloring but a much more in depth graphics/programming task.

Sad hijacking vehicles is SOOOO much fun even still but not part of PS2.
