replyHmm, Shack space battles? Now this sounds pretty cool:
"How many vehicles will be in the game? Will vehicles be featured in any of the multiplayer maps?"
The primary vehicle in the game is the Shuttle, which is a one-man hovercraft which has a rapid projectile attack and short-range tractor beam as a secondary ability. The Shuttle is featured heavily in several maps, as the player pilots across enormous outdoor spaces in the game, fighting flying creatures and using the tractor beam to clear away obstacles.
The Shuttle is also available in multiplayer -- two of the DM maps are based around Shuttle combat.

I can attest to this, it's pretty insane.
