I know Bioware working on "open enviroments" for a while and we'll surely need a vehicle to free roam.

 

But why Mako instead of superior Hammerhead?

 

Mako was like a rusted Soviet WWII tank while Hammerhead seemed more high tech, had superior handling, "rocket boost" jumps, "semi auto aim" which suited to "a high tech sci fi vehicle".

 

Mako only had "higher HP" as advantage but since i could dodge bullets with Hammerhead...

 

And one of the most important thing about Hammerhead was it wasn't forced upon you, totally side quest stuff while we were forced to use that junk called Mako in main quest.

 

Okay i got the nostalgia stuff but Mako was/is overrated. So i wish include them both or even better a few more vehicles to choose from which has their pros and cons. 

 

PS: Talking from a PC player's perspective, so Mako would be cool in consoles but it honestly sucked on PC. And after experiencing DA:I's control mechanism at PC, i'm worried.

 

TLDR: Hammerhead ftw. Even its name is similar to Motörhead which is instant win.

Personally, I'll go with the Mako over the Hammerhead any day. While the original's handling felt pernicious at times and especially when climbing really steep hills, there was this sense of excitement and adventure with it, charting unknown areas. I'm sure you've seen the screenshots of the Mako parked on terrain, with the sky and a planet/star in the background. It's that feeling that we've not quite adapted to the terrain just yet, and we're working with the tools we've got. It's maybe a bit of a romantic idea to explore space with limited technology, but it's one of the things that really spoke to me when I first played through the first Mass Effect.

 

That, and the new Mako is great fun to drive around in.
