They are, arguably, more destructive that the combat ones...although at least half of those attacks were 'killed by's and not 'kills'. I think we have found our new jihad jeep! That is, until people unlock the C7...
I must confess i have slammed the EU one into a tank before...but i would never use the PAC one for a suicide run - its just to cool looking

so there is a high speed transport that is ideal for jihading/ramming?

Yes, the resulting explosion is more powerful than any weapon in the game.  Ppl have been doing this since beta1, so its nothing new to me but still lame.

The size of the explosion is pretty impressive as well. I don't think any other single explosion (bomb, artillery, ect..) has a similar blast radius.

lol! the ending is the best .  The only problem with that tactic is that half the time they get the kill instead of you... and that its likely to result in lots of cursing and a kick depending on the server. Funny shit though.

Too bad its going to get toned down

I just hope they tone down the explosion and dont fuck with the way crashes and kills are handled

Better yet, they could leave it as it is, its a very good equaliser, as you still die

That's hardly a factor. The transport is near instant respawn whereas the Mech takes around 4 minutes.

Fuck that, C7 + One of the fast buggies + much more destruction

Boost inbetween a mech and a APC and you can get yourself atleast 4 kills, active cammo and no-one knows you where even there.

If this video gets some play they might. After I released that PKM camping video a while back that got over 70,000 views DICE nerfed the crap out of that gun. I won't take full credit for the nerf but I know DICE said they saw the video and nothing speaks louder than a video that demonstrates a clear imbalance.

Dude I can rack up more kills with Railgun turret than you do with those flying bombs. Beside most of the time you only get 1 kills so I really dun get it why it's so good. If you get 2 kills and need to wait for the choppers I could most likely get 3 kills if it's a quiet area and up to 5 kills without duying once.

Good thing if you wanna ruin your KD ratio and keep dieing and getting rid of those transport ships.

Plus if someone think they will nerf this, they can dream on. Because why shouldn't a big transport ship take out a Mech when ramming it? Makes no sense if they did and beside you could do the same thing in BF2 but it's not the most powerfull weapon there.

Meh I thought this was some video with Mech/Tank/Railgun Turret but only to find a lame video of someone crashing into others with the transport. Skill level of it = 3/10 (10 = Much skill needed, 1= No skill needed)

Since when has score or statistics meant jack shit or had absolutely anything to do with game balance (especially in a demo)?

The fact is you may not get as many kills with a transport jihad but you you can be the biggest n00b and kill the most experienced player ever in the most powerful vehicle ever. I know personally in a hover tank you'd never kill me with that railgun (even if I was standing still) but I could do absolutely nothing about someone slamming a transport in to me and I know this because it happened to me a few times.

Still, when you claim the most powerfull vehicle in the game I was under the impression that you owned with either Tank/Mech/Turret of some kind/APC not just crashing into vehicle.

It's a good way to get rid of theirs Mechs or tanks but it's far from most powerfull.
