What units in 3.0 do you wanna see replaced with something better in BR2?

 

Also state your reason and don't just leave a name.

I would say the speeder but i think i just suck at micromanaging so it wouldnt be fair to people who can use it properly.

But the abrams really needs to go,i know the allies dont have really powerfull tanks but a tier 3 that cant keep up with rhinos and cant go toe to toe with a quilin is pathetic

[Speeder]

Abrams is not going anywhere.

[Petya]

Abrams is just unbalanced. It will be more powerful in BR2.

Seens like this thread is basically calling for a shitfest.

Plague Splatter.
Why a catapult? RA is strange when it comes to tech, but this is somewhat over the top. I know SC is poor, but if they can mass produce the Speeder trikes and Hive Tyrants, why should they have to use such an ancient thing? Better replace it with something that make more senses, like a truck with a cannon.
Cryo Commando.
It sucks, really. The old Chrono Commando works better.

I used to think that Plague splatters are one of worst units in game, until i found out how efficient they are when it comes to dealing with infantry. Also they are faster than most of siege units. IIRC They will be buffed in next version.

And in my opinion, catapult design fits Scorpion Cell. Dont forget they arent a pretty much hi-tech faction like other of epsi sub factions.

Borderlands 2 had a Vehicle that tossed Explosive Barrels they got away with it. And I remember when Plague Splatter used to be able to FIRE ON THE MOVE they could decimate infantry and bases since you could drive bys.

Why would a truck with a cannon be more high-tech than a catapult on a tank chasis?

There are also plenty of generic low cost, outdated artillery vehicles that SC can use instead of a catapult.

A catapult is still used in regions where people don't have the necessary elements to construct or to buy very advanced vehicles. A catapult is a simple, yet effective weapon. Easy to construct, easy to use and can be very destructive, but it depends on the thing they want to deliver with it. Oh and btw, the Plague Splatter isn't just a simple catapult, it's a trebuchet.

The dreamweaver. It just seems like the skill and practice required to use it effectively isn't worth the gains. Though, it is my understanding BR2 is turning it into a virus suicide bomber.
