What's with all the Vanu suicide attacks?

Within 5 minutes, I had a vanu blow up his own prox mine killing us both, a scythe attack me and me only after begin chased down and soon destroyed by a reaver, and a sundy charge my vanguard only to c4 me (the dude and the sundy both died).
I thought the NC were supposed to be the guerrilla/terrorist type faction, don't take away our title! :/

They are fanatics.

Techno-terrorists.
This could go somewhere...

they have been practising in the art of the kamikaze, in which doing so, grants them to live with 30 virgin vanu babes in purple-vanu heaven, similar to the practices done at Al Qaeda.

Vanu is reminding me more and more of nod from C&C.

Reminded even more of that now.

Clones I presume.

You must be enlightened, you will learn the way of the Vanu.

But to be honest if we cant kill you with our sparkly maxes or our lazer (pew pew) guns then well just throw some C-4 on a sundy, and well all go to vanu heaven together.

yeah, if you can´t kill anything with your sparky maxes by now, you will not be able to kill anything ever, no matter how overpowered your weaponry is, so suicide really seems to be the better solution...

but please do it out of range of a respawn matrix and don´t disturb the others who want to fight.

I get rammed by Reavers and Mossies on an hourly basis. And lots of C4 harassers/flashes these days. What's with all the NC/TR suicide attacks?

Considering that the Vanu scientists discovered the technology of rebirthing, suicide attacks become effective.

I see plenty of suicidal Scythe jockeys, actually. They come in on a strafing run, you get a lock with your Striker... and then something in their fanatical alien-worshipping skulls goes FUUUCK YOUUUU and they visibly lock onto *you.* Hilarious and scary at the same time, especially if you're guarding an AMS.

Now, Reaver pilots? Are some of the most flare-popping, terrain-hugging, acrobatically risk-averse people I've ever seen, at least on Connery. I really have to take my hat off to them.
