Alt Modes - Which is best?

Postby Malicron » Mon Dec 10, 2007 5:35 pm

Motto: "We're all going to die... You go first."
Weapon: Energo-Sword
Just that. We all have our own opinions as to which is best. The F-15, the cassette, the toaster. :P

So do you like the tactics, or just the look? Dose it fit with your character? Let's hear it, what's your favorite and why?

The Tyrant Dragon. Cool image, and air animals are the best strafing alt class.

Weapon: Electric Cannon
I'll go with Image and Image, just because of the fact that they are alts I designed for my two characters Windracer and Raider, respectively. To see them actually <i>in</i> the game, being used by a fair number of players... that's just a heaping helping of awesome.

My old corner-stones were Land Animals (lower-level bots) and Air Animals (higher-level bots).

Since I've started reformatting my team for v2, there unfortunately isn't much place for Beast Alts, so 2/3 of what I'm using now is purely for looks.

Strangely enough, a hovercraft is my best character. Even before I put a dol-laser rifle on the scout/diversionary tactician, he won more often than my other characters due to his superior speed.
