At Mbt?

A thought just struck me, would anyone support the idea of an AT Main battle tank?

AT?

Ancient Tech

We need a conventional battle tank first. And I'm still waiting for the Heavy Assault Tank.

I'd support the idea of an ancient-tech MBT, but I'm not paying another thirty bucks for a piece of crap expansion pack. That bad larry better be a free add-in via download, like the Liberator, Lodestar, and Skyguard.

We already have conventional battle tanks. They're called Vanguards, Prowlers, and Magriders. But yeah, I'm waiting on a heavy assault tank... like the Mammoth tanks from Command and Conquer: Red Alert or Tiberian Sun.

Ooohh... some of the stuff from Tiberian Sun like the GDI Titan. I think there was also a Mammoth MkII, a giant rail-gun carrying thing that looked like an Imperial AT-AT.

I tend to be aagainst this, just because already I think this game is getting too tank specific. The problem with tanks (and planes and all vehicles in this game for that matter) is there is no real cost to them, sure you have to have a tech plant link, but other then that, you walk to the terminal, you click a grand total of three times and boom you have your tank. Easy peasy.

Amen, brother Doppler. While I don't agree with the freaks and lunatics who think we should call PS Tankside, I do think that we should not detract from the power of infantry in the game. If we do have too many tanks, infantry will pretty much be confined to indoors and heavy tree and landscape cover

well, personaly, id love for this game to be tankside, primarily, because i love tanks, and driving tanks, i just wish theyd get rid of that mow stop thing, i mean, a ANT can run over someone and not stop, but a tank does?

Doppler · 2003-12-26, 02:33 PM

Actualy a tank does stop when it rolls someone over, its just a lot faster to get back up to speed.

I say we add something to infantry first, maybe a new armour type? or maybe a new weapon

Duffman · 2003-12-26, 04:31 PM

they arent going to be adding any new tanks/weps/armor for awhile they have a lot of game play enhancements that they are going through now and tehy said there would be no new weps/vehicls/armor till theya re done

Rayder · 2003-12-26, 06:11 PM

I still like my ideas for an expansion that wouldn't suck.

Otherick · 2003-12-27, 09:21 AM

well if they arent releasing any thing soon then the grunts and support crews have nothing, to complain about. But if they ever do add something it should be a new armour type, maybe like uhhhhhh Common Pool max.

xmodum · 2003-12-27, 09:48 AM

CP MAX would be awsome,

i would LOVE to see a new damn sniper , im tired of the same thing , maybe empire specific snipers?NC have 1 similar to the bolt driver , but hits harder and slower reload,TR have a semi-auto clip based sniper sence they are based on speed, but the bullets dont do as much damage , VS, would have some sorta energy specific sniper, not sure really wut type of weapon base the VS is, i know NC is power TR is speed no clue on wut VS is

Otherick · 2003-12-27, 10:28 AM

VS are manuverability and versatility (SP) so we should have a sniper that does decent damage to light vehicles and infantry. Still think we need a CP max though, maybe a Uber max which is all maxs combined for like 15 cert points.

That is all a bunch of bull but would be so kool. A max with 1 pounders on each hand. A rocket rack with decimantors on its back, and uhhhhhh lancers under the pounder
