So after playing and finishing off metal gear peace walker,I had a thought about the mech that is Metal Gear.
It gave me a funny idea about tanks,what if we removed the treads and gave them legs?
The legs would give it maybe a little more maneuverability,going up hills better,its own addons on the legs even.Bad things I could see from this is may be loud as it steps on the ground like a stomp,or the weight or tech that could go on would more than likely be less then what you can put on a normal tank.
I could also see walking tanks as more of a way to deal with infantry than heavy armor and maybe dropships(put a manual AA railgun?),However I can see it also losing to a beef up tread tank,compared to a walking one that has lighter equip/gear.
Seeing all this advance tech around,I would not be surprised to see if those type of tanks exist on the battlefield,what ya'll think? |

MTACS are cliche tbh. I guess we will see how they are implemented.
I hope dust doesn't fall prey to "KZ3 syndrome". |

Just don't hold your breath too long. We won't have MTAC's at launch. They'll be introduced with the first or second major update. |

Hmmm, MTAC's. Looking forward to those.
Will they be something like this?
Or more like this? |

Something tells me that when MTACs come in, they will be more mobile but much less durable then HAVs. Can't wait to hunt them. |
