    lolno, even with nanoweave sniping is still incredibly powerful.

    Is that a sniper rifle or a bottle opener launcher?

    They'll make it OHK on headshot to get people to buy it.

    Also, VS are getting all the cool looking gear. I bet if there's a new NC sniper rifle, it'll look like a turd compared to that.

    I guess you don't watch Command Center.

    Didn't need to, he already posted the same photo in the Test Server discussion sub-forum.

    Making this a OHK regardless of nanoweave, but function exactly like previous bolt actions would just be SOE introducing power creep (and undeniably, P2W,) in which case where is my fully automatic, laser accurate lock-on missile-firing mini-gun? Might as well just take power creep to its logical extreme now and get it over with.

    If however it functions almost exactly like Planetside 1's bolt driver: Sweet. Finally.

    Otherwise, remodeling existing weapons isn't beyond the realm of impossibility, and VS sniper rifles already all look exactly the same, so...

    nope it will be a sniper's rifle with what has been decided as the Vanu's faction trait... that's right... a charge up mechanic!!!!!

    note: even fully charged it does not OHK people with NW5

    i guess its the VX2 Lightyear
    made for quickly dispatching enemies at range if i remember the description correctly
  19. FrontTowardEnemy

    Looks like crap. The designer is trying too hard to make it look "VS".
  20. DeadliestMoon

    I say it looks perfectly VS. But hey, neither of us has the credentials to discern someone else's vision of their creation.
