MAX UNIT Core Mechanics: Anti-Tank/MAX support & Anti-Infantry Jump Pistons – lets the MAX jump over large/tall objects. Has a recharge timer Sprint Mode (reworked ability) – instead of a small dash across a short distance, this enables the MAX to enter a sprinting configuration. Weapons are disabled in this mode, and there is a small delay entering or exiting the mode. Weapons cannot be used until exiting the mode is complete Carry Harness – lets 1 soldier travel with the max while it’s in sprint mode or using jump pistons. Allows small squads to transport soldiers over impassible terrain/objects or cover large distances quickly while keeping the MAX units and softer infantry together as a unit while travelling
Erm.....not sure. Agility and speed are features of other classes for which they pay the price of not being so well protected.
They were working on a MAX travel mode. The cert for it actually appeared on the PTS briefly, but it was not purchasable. Then I guess the Devs decided it was too much of a hassle to keep developing? I don't know, but it was almost a year and a half ago and it's never been seen since.
