Just when we thought the Tabula Rasa news couldn't get any better with today's Deployment 15 reaching the live servers, we now get word that the highly-anticipated Personal Armor Units that we've been hearing about for a year now are finally coming in Deployment 16.
These PAUs and Mechs will be two separate unit types, obtainable through either a control point mech pad or in the case of the PAU, as a "mount" of sorts. PAUs will only be available to the highest level of Logos Receptives and require a certain skill requirement for usage. Right now, we have word of the Angel PAU for Specialists, the Vulcan PAU for Soldiers, the standard AFS Mech which players are already aware of, the Orson Mech which acts much like a Sapper and finally the Grendel Mech which is described as having the ability to bring down the mightiest of base defenses (it's the big guy in the screenshot above). Check out the complete announcement and let us know what you think in the comments below.

*sigh* These new additions make me want to give TR a try, only there isn't a point, since it'll be gone in less than 2 months.

Why don't you play on the test server? There's an NPC there that will level you up (to level 30, 40, or 50) and give you boatloads of cash. You'll also see D16 before it hits live.

I own the game, it never really grabbed me... but some of the stuff more recently has sounded fun. I wish they would allow the community to take it on or something. It seems stupid for it to just essentially disappear.

Looks like they're throwing every they got at us, shame it's gonna be gone in two months.

Why the hell are they closing this game again?
Maybe it's all an elaborate joke? Or they're drumming up free subs so they can say "Look, can we offer people the chance to sub, see how many take it, and then keep the game running?"

I keep hoping this is the case. I tried TR and launch and found it boring, but the new additions have gotten my attention. If I knew it was going to be around for awhile, I'd give it another shot.

What a f*cking waste of time, why are they closing this game?
It just stupid that they add everything that basically fixes what everyone was b*tching about just so they can shut it off.
Its just a kick in the eye to the loyal players IMHO.
