People have been complaining to the devs of PS2 that they want Galaxys to carry tanks for a long time. So... the lead deveoper gave them in answer. In picture form.
Now how would people pay for this? I say it should have a cooldown timer of one week, and should cost 10 cert points every time you use it because it is HUGE. Plus, it should be a spawn point as long as its in the air. Also, I want it to be able to be taken down from the inside, by destroying a generator or something. It's obviously going to have turrets, so imagine how awesome it would be to see this fight another of its own kind. Maybe it can even be captured by the enemy, like it's a flying base owned by individual players. It would be super cool if instead of sitting in it, you could walk around on top and access terminals from it as well. If they want this in the game though, they will have to make the max elevation higher so that it doesnt look supidly close to the ground, as this thing is the length of a warp gate. I would be in heaven if you could drop your tanks from the bottom, at the same time you launch a swarm of Reavers, Mosquitoes, or Scythes. It would also be cool if soldiers could drop pod out of these, as it would be just stupid for them to be able to jump off the edge and expect to live like they were being deployed from a galaxy. These things shouldnt be able to spawn flashes though. WTF would be the point of that? I could go on and on and on. This thing gives me soooo many ideas. Now you might ask, Planetside 2 can handle a ton of fighting, but how will it handle such a massive entity? Well if you look through the upcoming features page on the website, they have ragdoll physics in there so they are obviously working on making the game faster. Now I wouldnt expect this on the list since it only shows what they plan on implementing in the next six months and this thing would take a while to code. Either that, or it was a joke. I don't care though. So awesome.
