Juggernaut Machine Gun Turret????

[shoptroll]

I swore I saw pics of the Juggernaut and the flamethrower still in tact...

From the manual:
"Juggernaut

The Juggernaut is a powerful but slow tank that provides devastating firepower.

* Two Seats
o Driver (machinegun turret)
o Gunner (main tank cannon)
* Starting Health: 800"

Please tell me thats a typo... Having a tank with a flamethrower in the front was one of the "cool" things I enjoyed in XMP.

 

[Bang Yr Head]

Why? It was absolutely useless for killing anything. Im glad they replaced it...

 

[NRK]

Please, dont start complaining

Flamethrower was so worthless that i even forgot it exist.

Lets just see how it looks in game.

I killed someone with the jug flame thrower once

But it was using an exploit on a beta version of a map

Well, I mostly liked it for style reasons... It was a unique idea I thought...

If the change is for the better, then thats fine... Or if there was some system related need.

prolly was a noob too

For a vehicle, flamethrower is useless. The only reason to keep it was it looked kewl, so we get over that and accept the change.

 

[Bleeder]

IT's JUST BETA
You know people will complain to hell and back until FMI puts it back for the final release.

 

[chipmunk]

it better go RATATATATATATAT

 

[Xaero]

Bleeder...people will complain that its "different than u2xmp", then when they change it back, they will bitch b/c they don't have the option to switch back and forth. Sometimes they don't need a reason, they just make one up.

/me looks toward phalanx...

 

[Bleeder]

/me knows

Well, if you ever played 2k3, you would know how much user feedback turned that game into a pos.

 

[|pure|Destruction]

flamethrower was totally useless on the jug and obscured the drivers vision. i hope the machine gun thing isnt a typo. also i cant wait to see the mods that people come up with and maps and such. gonna be an interesting ride.

 

[toky]

Hold on a sec something got changed Yay!

 

[RaptoR]

Free Monkey. Quit Complaining.

 

[/\ºKamakazi]

the flame would be coo if it shot 3x the distance and had a higher damage rating but no doubt a machine gun turret on the jug will be fun

 

[CiaKKi]

i think that in one year of xmp i fragged max 2 or 3 ppl with jugger's flame...

so machine gun is cool = )

 

[FurociousFa]

Kazi, i think that would rape fps hardcore ..and it'd still be pretty useless : (

 

[Naib]

prolly was a noob too

No, but I think he was typing at the time

Finally juggernaut is finally going to be usefull on flat ground. Back in the days in ol´ XMP tank was useless without climbing to higher ground for serious camping. Now it can perforate people directly which even makes it an assault vehicle. I hope that there´s going to be dramatic changes in vehicle handling and behavior in general. Acceleration is practically non-existing and physics... well there are many sorts of physics *sigh* I know it´s a stupid feature but manual gears would be cool tick box option for vehicles. Automatic ones should give slightly slower acceleration but with manuals you could do your worst to burn the rubber. Thinking of new raptor racing: skidding, sliding, rolling over axis and other cool things would be awesome if modeled. BRUM BRUUM
