I did that once at a Vicious event. It was sometime after I had done the taped up GEO2 and taped LV1.
A few people held it and commented on how much smaller and lighter it seemed. Haha.

Yeah seriously the 1.5 update is fantastic. |

I'd have considered a vanquish, but I've already got a luxe 1.5 and didn't see it as a huge upgrade, and truthfully the vanquish doesn't 'look' high-end to me. They just made a few choices that weren't my tastes and I've sort of passed on considering them.
If this is a new vanquish it would be great to see them make marked improvements to the bolt system to increase efficiency and maybe give it a better aesthetic treatment.

I was considering letting it ride through the weekend, but I'll spill about my post on Page 1.
I personally find it interesting that he's shooting the barrel from a Resurrection rather than the Freak that comes with the Vanquish. Honestly, I can't say I blame him, it's a better barrel.
Anyway, back to wild speculation about what's under the tape! |

The new anno'd that empire released make them
Look much more sharp. I saw a black and gold all packaged up at one of the fields here, looked a lot better than a normal one anyway. But I agree. They just don't have a great look to them. And I know a lot of guns are getting longer lately. But vanq's are just tooooo long. I feel like I'm carrying a Milsim gun when I shoot my friends. |

- No Upping threads. If you have something to say, please do, but don't post in the thread just to take it to the top of the forum.
- Do not post "1st post", "1st", "First post" or anything similar (or with any other number) at any point in a thread, even if you post a comment too. It is really annoying and it will result in a ban.
- If you don't like something, say why instead of just calling it ugly, lame, gay or any other name. If it is old, simply post a link or report the post with a link to the older News thread.
- Please don't post links for places to buy items. That encourages stores, sponsored players and other people to do it and spam the site.
If you have questions, please post them in the Talk to Mods/Admins forum.
