Prowl Nightwolf Posted March 23, 2015 Share Posted March 23, 2015 (edited) Thing is, what is the utility to a tail? The armor in this game is by no means magic space tech or anything, so a clunky tail is of limited usage. Well call it aesthetic choice, like extra cammo making it appear more Rahi at a distance... Not really important, I like the overall design of the cockpit and body itself. Strap some treds and you'd have a Med style Tank maybe. Comes with a rear firing weapon too... Well there's the Relentless, our currently oldest working Heavy Armor, piloted by my own character Tor, Dane's Kulk, and norik's Vax. As for the warthog, well my newest character Thak owns it. The Pig. I'd link you, but I'm on mobile and that's a mess I don't want to get into right now.That's ok, you've given me enough information I can do a forum search for the data...

Prowl Nightwolf Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 Eh, could go either way. It has the mobility of a jeep-type vehicle, however packs the firepower of a tank for them, "special" times when one needs to blow stuff up... lol.

What kind of gun is this jeep using that supposedly gives it the firepower of a tank? Tank turrets are huge; there's no way you could fit one on a jeep.

Prowl Nightwolf Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 I have no idea... But it is more than just a machine gun... Maybe along the lines of the first ever Tank design that was actually a jeep way back in WW1 or something like that. I'm sorry I don't play Halo so have no real idea what the thing does. I just think they look cool.

Nato G Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 Maybe so, but this game doesn't have Gauss hogs. The way I see it, the only way for a jeep in this game to have the same firepower as a tank would be to stick a greypowder cannon on it. Not only would the sheer weight and length of the barrel make it an incredibly impractical weapon, but the recoil would probably rip the whole vehicle in half on the first shot.

The UltimoScorp Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 It would have to be a very larg heavy jeep. At which point it would just be better to have a heavy Exo or a light tank.

Nato G Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 Exo's require a Pakari to lug around elemental cannons and the like while still retaining full mobility. Since the jeeps don't seem to use Kanohi, adding a cannon of any kind that would give it equivalent firepower to a tank would create some serious weight issues.

The UltimoScorp Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 The Pig has a kualsi. I think Exo's need the pakari because all the weigh is in one arm or the like. Whereas with a vehicle like a jeep or a tank the weight distributes more evenly. There is still the recoil issue though. BZPRPG Profiles The Unofficial Guide to TBRPG Combat!

Nato G Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 Exo's need the Pakari because they weren't built to carry cannons and the like. They were built for industrial work and only equipped with claw hands or melee weapons. Adding any projectile weapon bigger than a disk launcher creates weight issues that the exo's weren't built to accommodate for.

Prowl Nightwolf Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 wow such a large conversation regarding whether or not a Jeep could or couldn't handle the recoil of a weapon... Here is the answer.. Bracing struts during heavy fire. Though if it doesn't "Do backflips" in the game I don't see why it should here unless it is just a ploy not to allow such a vehicle. Anyway..

Nato G Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 Though if it doesn't "Do backflips" in the game I don't see why it should here It doesn't do backflips in the Halo games because physics got thrown out the window in favour of Rule of Cool. Last I checked, we try to be a bit more realistic here. Quick question: Who's currently closer to Ascension; Oblitus' group or the Treize expedition? Oblitus is still outside Vingt, so the Treize people are probably closer. Not that it matters, since Oblitus has already pretty much guaranteed himself the loot.

Nato G Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 whether or not a Jeep could or couldn't handle the recoil of a weapon... Here is the answer.. Bracing struts during heavy fire. Assuming you still want you jeep to have the same supposed firepower as a tank, bracing struts won't solve the issue of the weight, length and sheer size of the cannon you'd have to be using.
