Smed Tweet, Carrier?

[getembees]

Wow that carrier looks like just what PS2 needs to help with combined-arms logistics and zerg-coralling.

As many of us have spoken of before, the n00b experience can be difficult. But seeing this gives me an optimistic outlook about this games early-stage growth.

With just 1 or 2 of these per continent, each empire could better coordinate everything. Make it a permanent spawn point and the zerg will rush to it for acton; likely because the Faction-Leaders will be keeping this baby near the front lines. The more tools leaders have to coordinate the Zerg, the more interesting this game gets!

This will also likely help centralize the air-war. These carriers will be big targets and air-wings will flock from far and wide to take out and defend these carriers.

Looking forward to hearing more!

At first thought was to naval warship that can cross from island to island on a new map. But that artwork...

There's some details on the schematic, but I can't read the detail text. The bet one is "Shield Canopy Cover" and close behind is Stealth Hangar!

Remember that they say they want to implement total ownership of a continent for times? i guess that is how you can attack a locked continent. with one of these! it will act as the main spawn area until the warpgate has been rebuildt!

Hey....

can these be capturable?

[Reaver]

Seems like they intend this to be a vehicle transport. Maybe a squads worth of tanks, so six or so powlers, lightnings, and sunderers.

Hamma, that thing has the same design aesthetics as other stuff by this concept artist for PS2.

Look at how the Vanguard and Prowler concepts looked at first.

Outfit. Air. Cruisers?

I'm sure there will be plenty of people bitching, whatever happens. I was just thinking the other day that this thing needs a Titan-like ship mechanic like 2142.

No one will bitch because I -will- go to their house and destroy their computer. How's that for fanboism?

Not if I come over to yours first and destroy all GPS satelites in your region.

I watch lots of Mantracker.

So beautiful . . .

Outfit owned and upgraded I hope?

"Captain Fenrys D. Wolf, of the V.S.S. Evolution" - has a nice ring to it!

Then again, they could sell an hour in the big chair for SC, and I bet there'd be a line around the block of players chanting "shut up and take my money".

That's one big ass loady...

[MockZero2]

Hmm.. maybe Auraxium will make a return and maybe these will be outfit owned and you will need the Auraxium to upgrade them for your outfit. That would be pretty sweet.
