Here is a pic of the bot:

It has a large cutting disc in front, but I figure for the vehicle, that would be replaced by a flamethrower, and the chassis would be replaced by a 3-seater buggy chassis. I would also probably want to replace the wheels with something bigger and thicker.

Imagine that, upside down, with jets instead of wheels, and a turret on the bottom!

I think a Chaos Hoverbike would be cool. Fast, fun, and no traction. Not to mention the stylish cut2 skull would look really cool on the front. You could have the headlights come out the eyes.

EDIT: Oh and there would be big spiky scythe things on the sides and 1 or 2 big spiky things on the front, so you could ram into people and drag along their dead carcasses as a warning to other n00bs.

MUAHAHAHAHAHA!

um... sorry... got a little carried away there...

(Remodulates the Collective bandwidth) Apparently Whoot has hacked into it.

Allthough i dont know about them spikes. LOL

There are many ideas floating around for Vehicles. JB and i have discussed the Hoverboard. We are waiting for the Vehicle code in 2k4.

Ouch, that's an ugly thing.

Hope you uprgrade it soon cause i can't realy imagine what your describing.

It's a shame i don't have time to learn how to model and model a tank or something.

That sounds better than the hoverboard and seeing the succes of the speeder bikes at JKA it sounds to me as the best. The only thing that I should recomend to change on the idea idea is to let it shoot crossbow arrows.

it seems like a box on blades

i would definetly like to see a chaos buggy,the best vehicle there is for games

Dunno about arrows, since they would seem to make a poor weapon for a bike, but maybe a cutter gun.

I was also thinking about a gun that could be used on a large vehicle, it would use sniper rifle bullets (same damage, etc.) but fire them rapidly. Basically, it's a huge high-caliber gatling cannon of some sort. Possibly best to put it on a gunship or something that flies, with a fairly realistic flight/hover model, so that its not easy to aim. That should balance its power. Imagine strafing over the enemy with one of those things...

how about a gaint rideable proxy! when you crash it into something it makes a small redeemer like explosion

I think cutter blades would work out well with the bike. mabey a faster firing rate than the cutter though. and if you ripped the blades off the sides and front of the cutter model i think it'd work out perfectly.
EDIT: Scratch that. a minigun or flamethrower would be better.

Chaos hover bike... the only gun that comes to mind is the MUG flamethrower, or maybe the granade launcher, with napalm grenades.

The gatling gun is good to put up a big tank but not on a bike, a flametrower is bat because the bike goes fast and, it is short range and well I don't think anyone would want a flametrower on a bike execpt Isotope. That cutting blades howerver Shadowstar is a good idea i think.

I will post a pic of an speeder bike from JKA if i can find it somehere for the people who don't have seen it.

EDIT:

You will have to enlarge it, this was the only reasonable pick i could find, it is not the same as the one from JKA though (that one is nicer but i can't upload pics) but from one of the movies (implanted into another Star Wars game).

Both Wh00t and I, actually. But that's not the point! What would you say to a semi-auto grenade launcher, of any type?
