Does anyone Know what this is? - Page 2

guys...... it's just a weather balloon, sure it might look like a giant BFR killing machine but's that just cos the guy who took the pictures has some swamp gas reflecting off the Auraxian moon escewing the camera lens, nothing to see here carry on.

Here's the same spot just without the gas

Oh and in future please study this chart so we don't have any more confusion

Im pretty sure they had considered bringing this back as the multicrew tank option. But the public outcry squashed that idea.

Thanks for that, I have seen the BFR but never realised you could get a closer look

So let me get this straight no one thinks they can do a responsible crewed BFR because they are over powered in a game that is 10 years old? Yea that makes all kind of sense...

Rrrriiiiigggghhhhtttt...

Quite.

The naysayers are unthinking imbeciles with 0 imagination.

Liberators on release were ridiculously more overpowered than BFRs ever were.

Thanks for the video. It's funny that people have issues with the balance between faction weapons, or MBT's, or shotguns and yet they're fine with Liberators being able to do that. That's not even going into the fact that that same Zephyr is one of the best AA weapons in the game. So ridiculously unbalanced to the rest of the game it makes me rage ! ><

I don't think you can anymore. The bug/glitch/exploit that was used to do it was supposedly patched out toward the end of beta as, again, I think it also affected spawn buildings (prior to working pain fields).

Hamma · 2013-03-20, 10:48 AM

Yea one of the level design dudes stuck the BFR in there to make people shit.

HiroshiChugi · 2013-03-20, 12:49 PM

Lol, I agree on the liberator being too OP at first. I once ran a 80+ kill streak in one with the Zephyr, it was hilarious! xD :P but yeah, BFR's, from what I've seen in vids with them, could easily be micro-managed/nerfed or whatevers, by making them a 2-3 man crew. (3 people if you want to do one person per arm).

Babyfark McGeez · 2013-03-20, 12:57 PM

One of the most original units, and a futuristic one at that, and we will probably never see it because (some/many?) people assume that the initial bad implementation in planetside 1 means nobody can ever make such a unit work and it is forbidden to even think about it...

Personally i would love to see them, they add much more than a mere unit to the game.

Methonius · 2013-03-20, 01:54 PM

Maybe if they just made them only as tough as the ones in bf2142.

Dodgy Commando · 2013-03-20, 01:56 PM

I want BFR's back! They were hardly as OP as people make them out to be IMO.

Besides, they don't have to be implemented in the same way as they were in PS1. If it also allows to create the multicrew vehicle that a lot (myself included) long for, that could be pretty nice.

Although I do miss my one-man death machine

Ok so maybe they could be pretty OP, provided you weren't too reckless.

I just wish they could come back in some shape or form.

NO. (yes, I'm very constructive with my feedback)
