Thanks for the compliments guys. I think the lights are only good if you are wondering who is on your team.
For example, A Gear holding the Lancer will have blue lights and the Locusts holding Lancers will have red lights.
Oh and by the way this puppy will be up for sale in the next month or so.
I will start a trading thread when it is.
I never caught that when I played the game, thanks! The lights don't sound like they will "save your ass frequently" or are even helpful, but are very cool.
Also I can just imagine how much this beast will sell for.
