Just a quick question =). Its probably not realy a big deal, but im currious about if there is a animation for when the Bellato Exit or enter their Mech's. Or do you just suddenly apear in the thing when you equip it?

yea.. kinda silly to ask, but im genuinly currious =)

Also, since ya bunch of you guys have already been in the overseas beta's. If i planed to be teh pilot class, what should i start out as to begin with? warrior, ranged, or that specalist class? or better yet, which class is able to build the mech's? =)

No-one can "build" a mech, they HAVE to be purchased.

The mechs when summoned are in the "powered down" state, ie they look like they are sitting. When you get in the mech theres no animation of you climbing in, however the mech will then stand up from its "powered down" state.

figures =)

hehe ah well, so mutch for hopeing for a neat animation of ya climbing in.

one last question and i'll leave ya guys alone for a bit =)

Are all of the mech's Ranged?... ive seen SS's of some with like fists+blades on them, and others with gatling guns on them.

2 versions of mechs.
1 ranged
1 melee

Melee one has the advantage of going much faster after an upgrade

I would go to Bellato spec/driver straight away instead of going accretian :y: if they had implemented a nice animation for when the Bellato Exit or enter their Mech's. :lol:

We will need to wait a fer more months/years :wink: untill they can implement that kind of Graphic animations in these kinds of games. Maybe a good idea for the next expansion pack! Would boost social intrests in the game, No? :lol:

I would have really liked a few more animations during play, but its ok. I will be interested to see how things change in the Level-Up and the Codemasters versions.

As long as there is some kind of animation to notify the player that he is entering the mech is convenient. Also, it conserves some time. Time may not seem like an issue but if you keep entering and exiting the mech, it can become tedious and somewhat annoying to see your cute little bellato "hop" into the mech each time.

In Planetside they have mechs. (BFRs) and they have an animation, as do all the vehicles. But it does get anoying when you have to keep watching the same animation. But it does also look cool.

TBH I don't think it matters lol.

imagine this. There is a Cora/Accretian kicking your ass. You Will die if you dont get into your mech. Would you waste your time watching an animation while the Cora/Accretia is taking his time killing you?

(dont recall ever seeing a game where you have the ability to use pots while watching animations)

They didnt do it becasuse its not convenient and while you play you dont actually have time to watch em.

(But yeah it would have been cool if posible)

i think seeing the animation could be an option once u grt tierd of it u can turn it off
