scorpion tank

Finally got to use the darn thing. So basically its like turning/maneuvering a battle ship. Infact all I could do was drive forward and backwards lol. Feels very restricted to operate. Damage wise seems to be well balanced. Apparently it’s a stationary siege vehicle now and not one to drive around free will. Anyone use the scorpion yet? Thoughts?

I only encountered one and while I didn’t drive it (that would just be a recipe for disaster), the thing I’m most disappointed about is that I can’t ride passenger on the side!

The second I got into the Scorpion I had four enemies trying to hijack me lmao, so I didn’t get to drive it very much. From what I saw after the enemy took it, it’s got a forkton of armor and destructive capability which makes me happy

Yes it’s very powerful. Got 5 kills immediately and armor health was pretty good. But like I said it’s like pulling teeth to turn. Best to post up in back of base to avoid getting hijacked or swarmed

I got to drive the scorpion once, and it was VERY satisfying. It is quick enough to get away from potential boarders, so long as you dont get stunned or grappled.

I also wish players could ride on the treads like in CE.

Far as handling goes, it took me a moment to figure out how to turn with left thumb stick, but it worked out in the end.

Tip: NEVER place a wall directly in front and/or behind you. You need a quick getaway to escape boarding!

I got in the turret seat and was sniped out of it like 3 seconds later, that was my experience. It’s the only vehicle I haven’t been able to drive so far so I’m hoping I get to before the last multiplayer session.

me like tank hehehehe

I love how that was somehow a positive and optimistic experience for you. :slight_smile:

I was having too much fun to care if I was losing lmao

Plus, it’s cool to see that the Tank is a really beefy, slow and hard to defeat vehicle now. Something about Infinite’s Scorpion just makes me excited.

Idk what it is about BTB in Infinite but it’s like a dream for me… It’s the big mode i’ve always wanted ever since I was a kid

I got to get it once and maneuvering it is a nightmare. I feel like it’s in a good place otherwise. It seemed to have good firepower and just about the right amount of armor before I got taken out. I would like to see it more often than once in eight matches right at the end. I’m not sure why they are guarding the use of power vehicles so much.

Sadly didn’t get chance to use it since there spawns seemed very rare and only time I saw one the opposing time had it…had a few kamikaze runs while bunny hopping to try to take it out. Don’t think I’ll get time to play tomorrow but I hope it’s playable in the campaign so I can blow stuff up like Covenant/Banished drop ships, etc…
