Number of vehicles on ArmoUred Kill?

Anyone managed to find/work out how many vehicles there will be per side on these maps? I know a lot of people were hoping for 4 planes each, possibly 3 (2 JSF's, 1 AT).

The maps look awesome, I'm just concerned there's going to be poor sods having to jump around in a jeep while everyone else nicks the tanks.

It always seems better on PC, remind me again why we play it on the Xbox?

I would like to play it on PC but am not interested in buying a PC capable of playing it only for that computer to be obsolete 6 months later. That and the fact I prefer the xbox controller to a mouse and keyboard.

Are you aware that Microsoft sell Windows controllers which are the same as Xbox controllers but without the Xbox logo on them... Also you can just connect an Xbox controller to a PC and it works exactly the same once you've mapped out everything (Most games will automatically set controller when you plug it in anyway).

In all honesty you can build a half decent gaming PC for around £400 these days (With DDR3 RAM being dirt cheap, and SSD's being available for almost 50p/Gb, you can make them fast in cheap areas you see). Problem is a lot of people think you need to keep up and they get out of date, truth is, they do get out of date, however that does not mean they become obsolete. My computer cost around £1000 with the monitors and mouse/keyboard set up, base unit itself was £600 and for that I got a 4.5Ghz processor (Only an i3 but there good), 8Gb of RAM running at 1400Mhz to handle the over clock, and an SSD which really boosts speed. It's nearly 2 years old but it's still good, no I can't run the latest release at highest specs but the specs of games go up very slowly. If you spent £3000 on a monster PC with SLI GPU's and everything, it would continue to be overpowered well into 6-7 years. However, if you spend £500 it's usually good enough to run a current game at highest spec, and that will drop slowly over the 5 year lifespan (PC's generally last that long for me). So just like an Xbox, where the graphics slowly get worse and worse compared to other more recent platforms, that's what you live with and it's not bad. I do know some people who manage to resell components after 6 months and keep ahead of the technology, only loosing about 10% on their computer, however it's a lot of work...

But yeah, what I'm saying is you don't need that 2Gb GPU that costs £350, or that i7 that costs £500, or that massive 2Tb HDD. All you need really, ideally is an i5 however I make do with an i3 over clocked (Few things can take advantage of more that dual cores, so an i3 with dual core + hyper threading is ideal), 4Gb of RAM is enough for most things, I stuck 8Gb in as it was like £34 for 2x2Gb sticks of Kingston hyper X one time, and spend the extra money on a half decent GPU £150, and an SSD, these are the things that make a difference... Also things like an SSD, if you spend the money, it's a long term investment. I've noticed them drop to around £80 for a 500/500 128Gb one and that's super quick and makes everything feel quicker.

So not saying you should go buy a PC as I know financially it's tight however don't be so down heartened on them.
