News: PlanetSide 2 Comm-Link Art

[Bags]

I run out of ammo a lot, but I also go to great lengths to not die a lot so I don't know if I'm a good benchmark for ammo balance.

Loved the mossie and mag, the liberator looked like a galaxy to me though.

tbh...the new lib looks...ehh...weird?


also..didn`t see turret on the new mag, does this mean mag will be turretless?

edit:random lib idea

[SgtMAD]

I don't understand all the mossie mystery
SOE has said we would see an A/A variant,well that A/A variant is going to have missiles under the wing.

I think thats what we are looking at.

[Talek Krell]

Personally thinking the opposite. That those are A/G rockets and the A/A variant will have guns (hesitant about putting lock on A/A missiles in the game).

The Mag needs less of this:


And more of this:

[Talek Krell]

Want.

That purple thing you have there is a monstrosity.

I like the sleek Mag they've got. Makes quite a bit more sense than having flat sides perpendicular to the ground. You don't do that unless you have to.

It'll be really cool if they really are doing empire-specific mossies, libs ect.

Yeah, needs a turret, and a focused pilot, but i rant enough about this horrible vehicle design enough already.....well maybe not enough but too lazy to rant anymore. =D

When you're building with legos, you have to.

Yup, vehicles are now glorified buffs like in battlefield, you pilot and gun at the same time so you dont need a turret, or friends, which is good since we all know there will be no other players in this game with you who could gun for you while you just drove like PS1 did so well, this is a completely single player game. Only noobs play games with tons of people and actually use that silly teamwork idea.

[Aractain]

Amazoring. That is all.

As a lib pilot we don't need a front gun really. Just the ability to drop bombs and have a tail gunner is enough.

Whenever I had a front gun I found myself farming infantry. The lib is awesome at doing that. If I want to do that I'll get a tail gunner and do a low pass on the infantry and let the tail gunner pick them off.

[FastAndFree]

Someone alredy mentioned this, but allow me to reiterate, this is not the same Mosquito we saw earlier in the trailer

I wonder if the design evolved, or they are different variants



edit - marked the differences

Sad if true. (Hopefully isn't, signs so far point to yes...)

@FastAndFree: The only difference is that the tail wings got some shape, other than that the only difference is that the new model is armed. (Which seems to say modular armaments for vehicles)

[Zulthus]

Also to add to the mossy discussion; there are rockets AND a machine gun/cannon on the nose. Looks like it's an AV/AA variant.
