MAD Tank, otherwise known as the Mutually Assured Destruction tank.

It generates a harmonic resonation wave that damages vehicles and structures, but doesn't harm infantry. It must deploy to charge its weapon, kicking you out of the vehicle to complete the process.

When it deploys, an audible message is heard. "MAD Tank deployed."

When it detonates, it destroys itself and sends out the resonation wave which removes 44% of the hitpoints on any vehicle or structure. Three can destroy an entire base, if used in cohesion.

Costs $2,400.

Model: Sir Phoenixx
Texture: Darkblade

Hmmmm.....

I am not as fond of this tank as I am of some of the other RA vehicles.

I think it still needs to be worked on a bit. If you look at the intersection between the greenhouse (part with windows) and the main body, the body is very dark, and then it suddenly becomes much lighter at the greenhouse.

Looking at that side picture, it looks very blocky.

I love the general color and shape of it, but it needs to be enhanced a bit.

Don't you think people can get too many points with this thing?

Is a tank supposed to be spherical?

It's not blocky. Unless you consider a Mammoth Tank chassis to be blocky, but that's the point of a tank, it's supposed to be angular.

Textures are fine. It isn't meant to be pretty, it blows itself up for fuck's sake, it's just made of some semi-strong materials that'll allow it to get to its destination and detonate.

Perhaps make the red star on the front and sides bigger, they are really tiny right now.

I have to agree with Aircraftkiller here. The tank blows itself up! They're not going to waste precious building materials to build a fucking tank that is gonna end up in pieces ESPECIALLY if it's a success. They wouldn't paint the tank, it would have been a waste of resources.

whoa.

Then what would be the point in painting ANY tank in the first place? They all end up going to the battlefield anyway. Cool

i was expecting that question. it's easy, to have longevity. Tanks are made out of heavy metal materials. Metals rust. The painting is to keep the tank from rusting and becoming a pile of junk. Same reason why you'd paint your car, to keep out the rust.

whoa.

Lol, and why not paint the MAD's then to keep the rust off? I'm sure they won't be exploded right after they come out of the factory Very Happy

Very Happy

And besides, tanks are also painted for camouflage purposes.

I originally meant that they wouldn't paint it so it would have to match exactly. I should have said they don't need to match because it's not gonna last for that long.

Not all metals rust.

And I understand that its going to blow sooner or later, but it should still look a little more realistic hat it currently is.

I don't know what world you're living in but I have seen tanks that don't match up in color.

Painting isn't an exact process in reality and, especially with something that just goes "boom," it's not a priority. The most it would have gotten was a primer and base coat to keep water out of any leaky seals, which is what you see right there.

Exactly, I couldn't agree more. Why waste more money than necessary painting something that's gonna go "boom." At least normal tanks are hopefully going to live through the battle and the war, so it is desirable to keep it looking nice. When something is maintained, it normally lasts longer. Until tanks are outdated, the idea is to maintain them so they can last until they're not needed, so as to conserve money.

whoa.

Thanks for pointing out that painting isn't important! Although it was obviously painted because it wouldn't be green with a red star! :rolleyes:

My point was that the texturing looks bad. It has dark/light patches right next to each other. Is that the paint or bad lighting? Hmmm.....

Sorry I bothered to comment on it.

Texture alignment looks like shit.

Model is worse the the textures.... looks like pheonix ripped off the bottom of the mammy any thru some box's on it.

I thought "Your" team only did quality work...even if the tank blows up,You shouldn't settle for that lousy looking tank for the mod.

No shit?

If you look at it in-game and the purchase icon, that's exactly what it is.

Are you blind, you fucking retard?

The MAD Tank was MADE FROM THE MAMMOTH TANK CHASSIS:

The texture aligns perfectly. The metal bars aren't supposed to align from top to bottom, there's a dividing bar attached to the sides if you paid any attention at all.
