<div class="IPBDescription">STAT!</div>So I was thinking about that post from a few days ago talking about psychic robots, and while it's a really bad idea, it did bring this to mind:
What if the CC could be upgraded into a vehicle? The commander could access some areas (obviously not vents) and move with the marines?
You could do all sorts of stuff from there. Upgrade a mounted weapon and have another player hop in to pilot it. Of course it would have to be balanced but that's simple once the idea is innovated.
EDIT: Specifically I like the idea of turning the CC into a strider/atst-type walker.

Rah-full.
That's all I'm saying.
A movable CC is just asking for some newbie commander to be
all like "What's this button do?"
And when they press it they turn into a Strider (HL2 or nature reference?)
or maybe..
..an AT-ST?
Oops..Didn't hear the news..maybe I should get an update from
Flayra about when he got George Lucas to join the team.
Sorry..
My point is the idea seems kind of ludacris.
Yes the technology is advanced, but why would
you want a mobile CC.
It would ruin the general idea of an NS map (protect
and destroy) for the marine side in my honest opinion.

lol.
It doesn't have to be a wierd walker robot or anything, maybe it can just pop out wheels and roll like a tank. Maybe a rine needs to push it on a dolly? lol.
