Oh, building blocks at dusk is it

Or you guys could all collaborate to make the bestest clan base EVAR!!!

I would love to join in just to watch this thing! And throw the odd brick in a cool place.

Does anyone know the date of when it available to preorder?

It's been on pre-order for ages on play

It's up for preorder now!

it comes out on 14th september

@TherVadam: maby... just maby

Ok, I didn't know.
What about high street places? I don't want to preorder over the internet. (No credit card etc.)

I think you can pre-order in some shops, but I can't say for sure, as I have not looked (having pre-ordered it ages ago on play ).

yeah, both game(definately) and HMV(i think) are preordering for release-day pickup. just go in and ask

I'm in for the base-building race. I'll be on holiday, so I'll have far more time than any of you to make the flashiest base imaginable.

Hey peeps, new vehicle announced.

The revenant! "insert cheery music"

It's the wraith and ghost's love child!

So, it looks like the passenger controls the turret.
I'm wondering how much of a turning arc there is on that thing.

Ah, but you lack the skillz of Silver.

Yes, I spelt "skills" with a "z", because I am that skillful

Actually, from what I've read, the thing has one driver (who also controls the turret) and theres room for 2 hanger ons, kinda like on that brute uggo thing. (this comes from a dutch gaming site so I have no clue how reliabile this is, and I agree that it looks more like a 2 seater).

I think that Dutch site is on some mighty fine collective crack. I only see two seats as well.

Kinda odd to have the driver control both. Really would make more sense for Passenger to control turret, this seems a little overpowered, faster than a Wraith, faster travelling bullet, with what looked to be about same strength? Only downside seems to be that you can shoot the driver out.

Nah explosion strenght is alot less then the wraith, it has less of an arc though which is a big plus in a lot of situations.

I love the thing already

So, so far we know of 3 new vehicles.

Falcon
Rocket hog
Revenant

Looks kinna lika a muscle car

I thought Two Warthog variants were revealed, Warthog and some fiddly laser looking thing.

Updated gauss hog

Oh.

Whats the update on it?
Just looks?

That new flying vehicle looks damn cool - an alien gauss hog?

VikingScott wrote:Whats the update on it?

What part are you refering to? The vehicle, which is brand new, the engine, which is brand new so they can do ridiculously large and pretty maps, or the gameplay, which is being completely re-balanced from the ground up (Weapon damages, ranges, accuracy, etc)

I think he's talkinga bout the update on the gauss hog. And, no clue, haven't seen or heard of anything new on it, or where this rumor came from.

As for the new covenant thing. The projectile isn't hardly as fast as the gauss,. Gauss is like a sniper cannon, where as this is more of an energy bazooka.

I think he meant the gauss hog.

I meant the Gauss Hog.

Well, from what we've seen (which is just the new look) it just looks a little different. So, until stated otherwise, you can look forward to being cheap with it.

I'm in on the dakka clan too, and hopefully may be able to join in on the Legendary Co-op, my GT is the same as my username here.

Been looking forward to this for ages, and hoping to preorder it next week.

Are we finally allowed to ride in the transport hog?

Also, the revenant looks like a stripped down version of the Spectre.

I want the Spectre back. It sucked, but it was so much cooler than the Prowler.

With the right loadout, it was kickass.

Have a passenger use a rocket launcher, another the br, and the Spectre was a beast to be feared and respected.
