Just imagine your wading through a small river, brushing past high stalks of greenery and you hear a distinctive clanking, scraping of metal on metal. You briefly get directed so you crouch and observe your surroundings. You don’t see anything but you can hear something! And then you look up, hovering above you is a robotic octopus, it’s bright red eyes a haunting mark of destruction and its arms seemingly swimming in the air so effortlessly.
Then he blasts me with a bombardment of rockets because I accidentally stood up again. Lol
Indeed the constructor and logistic Machines have been absent.
It would be interesting to see them in certain areas, maybe under heavy escort.
Oh i love C&C games, so Stingrays… “coils standing by”
Let´s hope Fnix does not turn the bears into cyborgs too or bring the Sickle and “Reaper” they would be very very scary to see.
Very interesting results… @poolwatertea 12 hours ago the Androids were winning, now they have second place .
It would be interesting if the Team would ever disclose the result of the Survey, to see what most people actually choose (here it´s just some of the forum members).
And no one likes the Amphibian machines, so sad .
I’ve chosen “other” as I’d like to see some kind of a buffed seeker drone maybe an armed version of it.
Something like that, I don’t need tracked bots or androids, especially the latter wouldn’t fit too good imho.
Lol need to be able to access water if they were to have an amphibious enemy class. I mean sure they COULD have an enemy that is only in the tall grass on the edge of a river you could come across but in all honesty I don’t even remember the last time I used a rivers edge to travel and can’t even swim through the tiny stream to get across
I chose wheeled /tracked bots. Something that’s fast and can roll up on you quick when detected and put the sense of urgency back in the game, especially if you get caught out in the open.
And this would suck if they don’t give us the ability to go in the water. I’ve lost out on 2 or 3 rival tank and harvester kills that tipped over and fell into the water where I couldn’t get to them to retrieve loot. So frustrating.
If they fall into water next to the shore, if you’re quick you can dive in and hit ‘Use’ on them before you respawn at the shore, and the inventory interface will remain. I’ve saved lots of loot that way.
Yeah it does work I would like though being able to swim for a short period of time then it will black screen you if you stay in the cold water too long
There are various lakes and various spots with water where you can walk, an amphibian is not the same as aquatic, it can crawl to land, so it´s not really necessary to be in water and to swim.
Although i understand why some think about it, not being able to swim would make the amphibian machine available only in small areas of the game so it´s not the most viable option.
Although the official survey ends in 10 days, it´s time to close this Poll.
Thank you to everyone who participated, the results are very fascinating.
If it was up to me all of these machine types would eventually appear in the game .
