Community MAX Suggestions

This page contains community suggestions for the MAX class in Planetside 2.

NS-60 Flamethrower
This existed in Beta, but was removed
 * A short-range AOE flamethrower, but limited to 2 meters
 * DBG Should still have the models and assets (O:MFG new particles)
 * Could use different types of NS flamethrowers, or have an NS flamethrower and ES variants. VS maxes could receive the heavy's lashers from beta when they were essentially plasma flamethrowers
 * Functionality wise, making the flame jets part of the weapons model like the beta lasher should reduce particles on them, making them performance friendlier. The only particle effects needed in this case would be the fire turning into smoke.
 * Very high ROF weapon that shoots out invisible lasher orbs that do very little damage. No need to add damage over time effects if it's extra code
 * Provides close range max options for VS/TR, provides NC with an AI Alternative to shotguns.

NS-35 Grenade Launcher

 * Grenademaxlauncher-300x138 MAX .jpg was hinted at in Beta, but never made it into release
 * A launcher for the max that launches infantry frag grenades.
 * Different ammo types for different grenade types (AV, Smoke, etc.)
