Put it on the "honk" bind.  Of course, where will the totally-needed MAX horn go?

Actually, there's no reason every class can't have a horn.

Still need the General Lee Flash horn, though I suppose it'd be okay on the Harasser.

You have to put the vuvuzelas on one arm, too. You can buy range upgrades for them.

DUAL VUVUZELA MAX SQUADS.

I'm pretty dedicated NC, but today I went into VR for the TR and VS just to play around.  Notes:


VS:

Magrider:  Fun to drive
Scythe:  Damn that thing is smooth
Lancer:  Good in concept, but I'm not sure how it'd field test
Dual Cosmos:  Awesome
Whatever that MAX AI weapon I tested (the default, I think):  Lame
Eidolon (Battle Rifle):  Damn this is a lot better with no bullet drop
Lasher:  Shit


TR:

CARV:  Awesome
Dual Mercy:  So that's what it feels like to be able to kill infantry at range with a MAX
Cycler:  Nice gun
Striker:  This one's tough to test in VR.  I think I can see the view of both the haters and the lovers, though- while the damage isn't a lot, it can quickly create no-fly zones.
Mini CG:  While it's a blast to unload 200 rounds, I can see why I almost never see this in action.  Why do all the old-school heavy weapons suck?  IMO this is the best of the three.  For you TR out there, does the laser sight help any?

  Red-letter day, guys, I used my Bursters to actually shoot down, not one, but two ESFs - a scythe and a mozzie.  I was surprised that, at extreme close range, they assploded so quickly, dual Bursters will wreck your day, especially when you fly in a straight line while trying to avoid source the incoming fire.

  Jinking is obviously not covered in training.

Tagging a lolpodder with a Phoenix that you fire straight at his face that there's no way he couldn't have seen coming and yet he just hovers there... great way to put a smile on your face.

I hate the pheonix so much.  It's a basically a less maneuverable lock on rocket that doens't give lock on warning, ignores IR smoke/flares, and ignores LOS restrictions.

The Phoenix's TTK also gets lower the farther from the target the user is, given you can't start reloading it until you no longer control the rocket.

You could say most of that about the Lancer as well (minus LOS of course) , except the Lancer has over double the range and has a monstrous projectile speed.  You don't know rage until your rocket despawns three feet from the rear end of a smoking tank.

They're removing the vertical recoil reduction from the foregrip on LMGs.
6x scopes get sway.

My SVA-88 days are numbered, it seems. Close range, get screwed by shotguns and SMGs. Medium and Long range, increase recoil will hamper efficiency.

Lovely.  ::)
