    Imagine the possibilities on the battlefield.
  2. LIKE A BOSS!

    Sure if you change magburner I-win shield vs mag burner would turn the balance out the door. If they do this they better add the secondaries too...I want dual PPAs on my sundy.

    ???

    Sure, turbo on sunderers could be fun, but imagine meeting one of those with vanguard shield. And what pray tell TR sunderers are gonna do with lockdown anyway?

    Double lockdown! It deploys... then deploys again! Soldiers that spawn on a double deployed sunderer are shot out of it like rockets, and than can choose a location within 100m to land.

    Unfortunately, don't believe lockdown could be used in tandem with AMS. If they added ES abilities, they would probably go under the utility slot. So... as awesome as that would be.... I mean, it completely removes the downside of lockdown, because you're already immobile in AMS mode.... yeah

    While you are at it give it to flashes as well. lock down flash or shielded flash for the win!

    That is why I didn't name the magburner :D
    OR.... SUPER TURBO!!

    ES abilities on sunderers? No thank you, SOE has shown their incompetence with balancing ES on a NS platform.

    Now fully designed ES Sunderers? Yes please.
  10. Frostiken

    Kinda like the BF2142 APCs? That would be ****.

    All soldiers deploying from it get a 48% reload speed increase, 30% projectile speed increase, and cannot move, obviously.
  12. Scr1nRusher

    Lockdowned sunderers weapons would get the same benefits the Prowlers main gun gets.
  13. Verenz

    Um... no.

    The reason the vanguard gets such a strong ability is because the tank is so much worse than the other 2 before yuo factor in the abilitys. You can't just give those abilities to the same vehicle lol.

    As another example imagine how OP a prowler would be with shield if the vanguard had lockdown :/
  14. CrashB111

    If anything the Vanguard would be made OP from that swap, the main gun would be a rail gun with extremely fast reload speed. Removing the one weakness the Vanguard has.

    That's insane, the prowler would be the fastest tank with the highest dps and most health, how can you say the vanguard would be better than that?, the shield is strong enough on the slowest tank with much lower dps. The vanguard could snipe at range (less effectively than a prowler on live mind you due to lacking significant dps).

    Vertenz your derailing this thread.


    lets stay on topic.

    Can already imagine the rage tells you´d get from Lib pilots that thought they'd get an easy lightning kill. :p

    Since lockdown and AMS will go under utility slot, that ain't happening. You will have to choose one or the other.
