Make MAXes free + the default spawn class so new players don't get confused.

Also remove charge's cooldown as MAXes are not mobile enough.

do all these things and also remove heavy from the game

Next level meta strat theory:

Half half of your forces very obviously pull maxes and wait in spawnroom or make a token push.

Let enemies have time to dump tank mines everywhere, thinking they will dunk the max crash.

Wait a bit, let enemies push up to their own mines (they will)

Other half of forces launch flash/conc nades then wait a second and unleash all (ALL) of the EMP grenades.

Max crash.


Hell just being a stalker cloak with EMP bando could be fun with more poorly placed tank mines around indoors.

3 pubbie maxes detonate all of the tank mines while you wait

the FPC will still one-shot infantry on a direct hit. if you're doing AV work, I'd definitely cert into it; the mag needs all the DPS help it can get vs prowlers and vanguards. also yes, stealth.

Engie: Does nothing but rep the farm of tanks raining hell on an enemy position. Resulting in more damage and enemy deaths than any 3 HA zerglings. K/D: 0/1, but he did a better job than that 1/1 guy who just rush-rush-rushed.

Infil: Did nothing but spam recon darts, sucking reloads off that engy's ammo pack. Vastly improving the information the guys in the thick of it have to work with. K/D 0/1, but she made all those zergers 2 or 3 times more effective than without that dart-spam.

Medic: Rezes that infil who just got plinked by a sniper. Just rezzes people who get picked off doing support rolls in the tank-farm. K/D: 0/1, but drat, this place is running pretty well when the support staff isn't asleeps in some bloods.

Light Assault: Spent 3 minutes sneaking into a wierd corner of the battle-field to drop a beacon. Didn't fire a shot because that would attract attention, get's podded by the first person to drop in. K/D: 0/1, but the enemy team has a whole new front to deal with.

Galaxy Pilot: Just keeps filling up with pubbies from a nearby not-so-hot zone and fly-by dropping them into the thick of it. A whole 'nuther set of problems for the enemy. K/D: 0/0 Wierdly, there was almost no anti-air from the enemy.

Another Infil: Stalker-cloaked, just snuck around hacking turrets and terminals. K/D:0/1, and that gal-pilot is kinda confused.

Another Engie: Sits in the back of a harasser, eating popcorn with one hand and repping it with the other. K/D 0/1, the gunner and driver rack up far more kills than without constant healing, circling the battlefield, blowing up incoming tanks, and ramping off random terrain.

I don't think an incredible amount has changed, but most of the "elite" tier of players long ago gave up live server teamwork are now playing this game as a solo shooter with coincidental assisting. I feel it has a part in the desire for infantry bushido and fueled the rage - the average player skill increased over the years, but their numbers dwindled too far deal with anything beyond a 12-24 fight and the clusterfucks it brings.

The most obvious example of the above behavior...I'm not exactly sure what happened to the public face of AC over the past year or two, a shift in culture in Planetside 2 from being known for being stellar at the game to impotent rage at anyone and everything because lol shock value or something. I feel like someone in that group has to have the self-awareness to question recruiting the LexingtonSteels and Harvesters of the game as a long-term strategy for keeping your group together.

Harvester isn't that bad, he's only a terrible piece of racist filth on reddit and twitch you see.
