Maxes are now as common as MBTs, and don't make up Gàô of the entire game anymore. That crap was annoying as hell, and the flat-MAX bug made it even worse.
I'm actually enjoying the balance resources provide more than all the stuff they unlocked for purchase. how does the resources work like can you capture certain facilities for more resources? are they personal resources or pooled?
Resources are basically what prevents a player from spamming stuff like MBT, MAXes, and ESFs.
Each player gests a personal pool of 'nanites' that can draw from to make stuff like that.
The pool caps at 750 nanites, and you get 50 nanites per minute, so it takes 15 minutes to fill your supply up from empty.
-Galaxies(C130s, essentially), Liberators(Gunships), Magriders/Prowlers/Vanguards, and MAX units all cost 450 nanites to pull.
-Lightnings(little tanks), and Scythes/Mosquitoes/Reavers all cost 350.
-Valkyries(smaller gunships) cost 250.
-Harrassers(jeeps) cost 150.
-Flashes(ATVs) cost 50.
As of right now, there is no way to affect the nanite costs of anything, because we only have 1 continent. Usually, when a continent is completely controlled by a faction, that faction gets 50% reduced nanite costs for a certain type of vehicle, or MAXes
-Main Battle Tanks can only be pulled atMAXes.gates, usually. Whatever faction controls the Tech Plant for that continent can pull them at most facilities though.
This little fact has been the bane of my existence today. The TR were relentlessly fighting for the Eisa Tech Plant. I couldn't tell you how many times I drove a Magrider halfway across the map.

No skills to reduce kick are available. Various grips and such for a particular weapon are available. I won't have to cuz I'm gonna be a Purple Tights Wearing Tankman.
I have a Vanu toon. Man, the VS is really what I thought future war would be like. Lasers, floating tanks, Scythe fighters and the Lasher (laser/pulse with unlimited ammo).
I ran a little last night and we overran an outpost then jumped over the wall chasing the attackers down on foot and vehicles. We overran the next one and I switched to a Lightning with AA. There were over twenty VS vehicles on the move to the next facility. Very intense fighting which ever faction you choose.
Glad you are enjoying it.
My favorite tank is a Lightning. Just sayin.
