Colossus Tank: What that gun in the tech plant is for

Holy ****

Everyone was so jelly of the Prowler they had to build an NS one.

source?

Saw this in another tread but diddnt understand what the source was (some stream and the picture flashed?)

So are we getting Super Heavy Tanks?

I hope they are multi-crewed: only being effective when players are working in concert. Sadly it would probably work like tanks do now because: "It's more fun this way."

They flashed the image early in the show, but we've heard about this for months. I think Clegg was the one to originally mention it during an FNO.

I hope it's 1 manned. Shouldn't be more.

Is this for real? If this becomes a reality then if people thought BWC tank crews packed a punch before well then then watch out Mattherson VS/NC! We'll be sure to have at least one of these rolling with us at all times during our operations.

As an NS tank?

Sounds to me like they're addressing two concerns at once:

1. people wanting a multi-crew tank where the driver isn't operating the main gun
2. the fact that only one of the three factions has a MBT, while a second has mobile artillery and the third has a heavy harasser.

Making it NS means everyone has a line-holding, damage-dealing tank.

That thing is going to attract all the bullets. Front treads look kinda exposed, though.

I friggin hope this is in the works! The game needs some cool huge assets that cost a ton to obtain and require a crew of people to operate. Would be fun seeing that thing show up on the battlefield on either side. I can envision coordinating assaults trying to take it down!

I'm all for that as long as they are pretty much immune to c4 and cheesy lock ons.

Make it happen. This needs to be in game. We need to make this tank happen.

IF this isnt crewed (if its real), I would just give up on this game entirely. If it is crewed, i would love this game immensely.

As posted in the other thread, wake me when there's more ES stuff. More homogeneity in a game where its appeal (to me) is its asymmetry...yawn. Maybe next time.

I could see it as ONLY spawnable at a tech plant.

Vehicle handling is so bad in PS2 that driving that on anything but flat ground with no obstacles will be a headache.

I wonder what kind of walls this tall tank will allow infantry to get over.

Zerg attacking base.......Outfit counters with giant tank......Zerg whines about nerfs on forum.....<.< Lets get this part started!!!

there's a gun in the tech plant?

A much better looking one though.

Look closely... The turret is directly in the center of the tank. So Beautiful, Fabulous.

Meh, it will cost a full 750 resources, slow as hell, unable to climb out of a mud puddle and STILL die to a single light assault with C4.
