The tunnels didn't make it sadly.

I am so excited now

especially about the model updates

spawn rooms look great, especially with the force fields on windows

Welp, there go my SMG-MAX squad plans.

Sorry for the small images - last minute thought to take screenshots

Is it going to be on youtube/twitch.tv soon?

[Hamma]

Not until it ends but yea I'm sure.

[Chewy]

I need new pants now.

[CrazEpharmacist]

Wow, everything looks amazing. I can't wait to see how this affects game-play.

[KaskaMatej]

Woo, SMGs! Can't wait to use them! Sadly they didn't have VS' gun modeled yet but I hope they won't be the same for all empires.

[ShadetheDruid]

Very, very awesome stuff.

  - EXCELLENT great step in the right direction for defense.
  
• SMGs
  
  - MEH for the most part. Plain IDIOTIC to allow cloakers to use these
  

The tunnels didn't make it sadly.

- Hoping for vast networks of tunnels that are wide and high.

SMGs

• All weapon models will be made more unique. (Badassification project)
  
  - So when is retail
  
• SMGs will have faster ADS movement.
• Unique SMG animations
• Different types of iron sights and animations.
• All classes except MAXs - Giving infils SMGs is as bad as giving them shotguns

Misc

• Raised vehicle pads.
  
  -Great alteration
  

A solid B- so far.

I saw the 'observer mode' in FNO and it seems to be an invisible vehicle of some sort.
If it's an invisible vehicle, maybe it can carry passengers and if it is invisible and can carry passengers...is it the Phantasm?

If that's true, can I get one?

[p0intman]

cloakers with SMGs will be hilarious to watch, and it will end up the same way as cloakers with shotguns.

We can only hope for the return of the phantasm.

Looks great, only problem is I bought a scout rifle so my infiltrator could have cqb abilities now they get SMGs.. Think im just gonna wait a year before spending SC now. Otherwise stuff you buy will get outdated the next few weeks

New spawn room layouts look good, slowly getting more defense options
