What do you mean by that? Does it not work when you play it?

Edit: I just had an idea for an amazing vehicle! I'm surprised Pandemic didn't think of this already. An armoured metro bus.

Now, I know what you're thinking: "How could a hard-core mercenary benefit from a bus?" Well, a metro bus already has a roll-cage in place inside giving it a sturdy frame. Simply put metal panels along the windows and sides for reinforcement, add gun turrets on the front and rear escape hatches and you've got a gun truck with room for extra troops! Brilliant, don't you think?

Also, I'd like it if Mercs 3 and any possible sequels have some way of switching position in a vehicle without having to get out and then get back in again. For example, say you're driving an AN Humvee (called 'Messengers' in Mercs 2) with a guy in the gunner seat. Suddenly you're attacked and your gunner is killed. Rather than get out, run to the gunner seat, and then get back in, why not just move around inside the vehicle to get to the gun turret. The inside of those things is more than spacious enough. The same thing would work for my metro combat bus idea.

good idea, (not being sarcastic) why dont we get the option of a small merc army for our merc, it would make a lot of missions easier, pllus u can treat like cannon fodder, and they'd do jack ***** cos they're getting paid for it

If they made the game more realistic, it wouldnt evn b i it plus the Ai would be retarded. just nuke the bastards

I'm no AA Shmuck!! just i like sensible ideas, a moped with minigun isnt practical. but i welcome any idea!

Was there any character skins from other games that Pandemic made? If there wasn't, I would love to see some Star Wars characters since they did make Battlefront. Darth Vader should second me kinda. Then again, he's not coming back anytime soon.

And any of the custom vehicles from Eva's Garage are? Lets see...

1. A snow mobile with two miniguns
2. An SUV with a sabot-firing gun turret
3. A speedboat with a forward gun turret and rocket pods
4. A buggy with Fuel-Air rockets and a grenade launcher
5. The 'piece de resistance' a sports car with an anti-tank missile launcher

Do you see my point? This game series was made practically for the unpractical. So please calm down.

Okay, wait, when was there a snow mobile? Only asking.

The Panzercycle. Technically, it is a snow mobile with the skis on the front removed and the treads extended.

Actually, Mercs 1 had a Han Solo and an Indiana Jones skin. Personally, I'd like to run around as a Stormtrooper or a Clone Trooper. That armour looks awesome! And I'd like it if they could fix the bug with using skins. It's nothing big, just that when you start up, if you're in a skin other than 'default', you're character thinks he/she's holding a gun and runs around as such. It just looks really weird.

Really? Numbers 1-4 are real? You expect an SUV to stay upright when firing off sabot ammunition? You expect a speed boat to stay afloat when firing rockets upwards? You expect a buggy to survive it's own close range explosiveness?

As for the original mo-ped, would you be happy if said mo-ped had heavier armour, a heavier engine, and whatever else it needs to be able to effectively fire a minigun? What about one of the miniguns from the Panzercycle? Those are pretty small, much less kick.

NINJAfries07, what do you think? It was your idea.
