Why Does The Heavy Armor...

The heavy armor picture when you install NS looks a lot like he is using two pistols... why?

    Yeah, its just to make it look cool.

    I wish you could do that though. <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Yeah.

    If I was in a place that is literally crawling with aliens, I would grab all the stuff I could carry.

    I'd probably have 2 pistols too, they shouldn't weigh much anyway <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

    At least compared to the HMG, GL, Shotty, or even the LMG

    And the HA is probably at least partially mechanized...

    Because of the durability, noises, and general look of HA, I've always figured it was mechanized too, giving the user extra strength and endurance and such. Then again, because you can't move fast in them, you get slowed down by webbing and earthquake-like stomps, I guess all that mechanization is there just to move that 99% soak nano-armor around. It might be pretty cool to maybe do something like reduce the damage soak value of HA, but increase their jumping ability maybe, and let them move a bit faster or something. Kind of like a LA marine with 170 armor or something? They could call it power armor or movement assist armor. Somewhere between a jetpack and heavy armor, you know? Eh, whatever.

    Double pistols is just one of those crazy things they did because it looked cool. What I'm wondering is why they had it be a HA? I mean, you have this BIG, HULKING MASS of armor and angry full-closure helmet face going on, and he's wielding two itty bitty lil' pistols? It would be cooler if it was a LA doing that, but whatever. Now, dual HMG, that would be sweet.

    What I want to know is why they look like they're trying to fly in the ready room after a game when you crouch and move.

    Nah nah nah grab two gorgies under each arm and putt ff on NOW THAT IS REAL POWER, screw HMG's.

    Yeh HA can run up walls while holding dual gorgies, and his dodge ability is awesome. Good thing they're implementing onii to ride on so that HA ninjas arent too powerful.
