The only thing that is looking better then the current TR stuff, we saw till now, is the Reaver, especially when the landing gear isnt out, and the MAG-SHOT.



I cant compare the Vanguard with the Prowler because till now i saw only a very small concept-picture of the Prowler...but what i saw there was nice...very flat turret with weapons on the side and a nice looking body.



The concept of the NC Max was ugly as hell...even the VS ones looked better.



Atm even the TR with their "oh so" old style equitment looking more futuristic then the NC.

Sifer2 Re: Higby tweets VS It is odd to me they say the NC use experimental weapons but their stuff really looks the least high tech. I don't really care though since I think the variety in appearance will be a good thing. Especially since I don't plan to play NC this time...snicker.

And just because the Van looks like it was carved out of a single metal slab doesn't mean it can't have bleeing edge internal components... Nope, can't say it with a straight face

CplVars Re: Higby tweets VS Vanguards look kinda like Abrams to me, and Abrams are kinda old but they have some high tech stuff in 'em. Pretty sure they have the same if not better optics system in them as the MGS Stryker.





Edit: Also, I need my chainblade back for all the conga lines I plan to be in/start.

Kriegson Re: Higby tweets VS I think that NC uses experimental gear in regards to say...prototype equipment. Not all prototypes are necessarily high tech or extremely effective, but they often have the newest tech (Components) or concepts integrated.



For instance, the VS rifle is obviously technologically superior to the NC gauss rifle, based on whatever mechanisms likely allow the VS rifle to function (Some crazy alien pewpew-voodoo) as opposed to a more conventional cartridge and firing pin based mechanism.

Though rather than simply firing bullets like the TR, they use special rounds with a special mechanism on the gun that allow them to be magnetically accelerated to incredible speeds.



The reason they are wearing gardening gloves and slab armor plates is because they are forced to salvage or fabricate most of their gear from sources other than military supply.



Thus the strange mix of technologically advanced mechanisms and/or scavenged equipment.

NC have the "hacker" mentality. basically, they'll grab anything they can get their hands on and re-purpose it and toy with it. key for the guerrilla mindset.



my guess is that they grabbed some destroyed mag rider and created railguns from it.



why the VS don't learn from this? because it was human made (not handed down from their God) and therefore refuse to use it.



meanwhile, the TR just look at it and says "what's this about fancy sancy tech? Melt this sucker down! do you know how many bullets we can make from this junk?!"
