Hmm, like the pictures of the battleground outside East OA, looks really cool.
Battle mechs will more than likely be a back slot armour item, similar to GA, so no other armour can be worn, or more like a desert scorpiod suit with better graphics (whenever I say better graphics, read more lag. Without a new graphics engine of course).
I can just see tower battles now, no one shows up, 6 level 220 players from one side stand on a hill overlooking the area and call in an air strike, one each. Bang, new tower spot.
Taking to the skies and taking the battles to the aliens, definitely a good thing, but there is implications of PvP in this, so I am guessing that you plan a raiding party for a mothership, Clan enter at one point, Omni at the other, Neutral, come in somewhere, but to be decided. All battle on 3 floors to get to the control room which is 0% gas and then it becomes a bloodfest, with all attacking each other and the aliens.
I have to say that I will be first in line for this expansion, I am excited, although looking above you may not believe it. I think it opens new realms for development, RP interplay, and enjoyment. I am sure that whatever developments are due we will be well informed. Our resources in this area are very good
I know PvP is going to be a big focus in this patch, so you effectively have 6 months to twink and be ready, for myself, I will sit at our HQ, and call in airstrike after airstrike on MMD, 4 Holes, Broken Shores and anywhere else that PvP can happen without flagging, soon I will be an Uber Despotic General
. It will be a shame that Omni HQ and OA will have defence shields to protect them.
Anyway, rambling a few thoughts off, but be prepared for this, it will be big and I would like to see all getting the most from it
