First two, anti-missile. That'd cut the swarms down below half efficiency.
Hologram, yes, hologram because that's exactly what it is by another name. What purpose could this possibly have? Throw off infantry? I don't think they'll fall for that murder taxi that just phased through a building, brah.
Cloaking. Now, this was actually presented in an acceptable way, except I have to point out that a vehicle that can bump-kill someone after moving half a foot does not need to be able to sit still and bump-kill. ... Though this is personally a hilarious thought to me.
Webifier. This is actually a plausible idea for LLAV/LAV vs LLAV/LAV combat. Extremely little use against a tank that's already craptastically slow.
The next two involve turret tracking speed. This is a problem. We aren't in EVE where our guns are automatically controlled. Vehicle turrets are manually controlled. Tracking ability is purely the gunner's ability.
Energy Neutralizer. I could see this being used in LAV/LLAV vs LAV/LLAV combat. Against tanks? Unless you can withstand the hell fury of an angry tank, that's a no go.
Transfer Array. I can see this actually being used to support a tank. It still suffers a later point I'm going to make.
Power Booster. The short times aren't enough?
You are suggesting things without a counter viable. That or they are simply out of place. This is not EVE. Everything requires a counter of some sort. Like the explosive damage armor takes? Me too. Shame we don't have anything for that.
I'm suggesting counters to things that currently don't have counters. What counter is there to a swarm? Now we have one with the lock breaker and missile defense. What counter is there to a forge sniping a tank? Now we have one with displacement for 2 seconds.
Webifiers have amazing use for all sorts of vehicle hunting, dropship v dropship webifiers. Get that lock and the other guy will be in a world of hurt.
Slowing down a blaster user's ability to turn that thing and it could save you and cost him his tank if you drive by with your tank faster than he can track you.
The Transfer array could actually make using shields mean something.
what's the counter to a tank mowing down players at range, forge gun, whats the counter for any vehicle mowing down players at mid range, swarms and forge guns, what's the counter to murder taxis mowing down players at close range, av grenades. your talking about adding these modules which serve to only weaken vehicles and weaken av at the same time and i will state why,
counter to swarms is hit it with your turret, get your crew to hit it, call for a sniper to snipe it, call for anyone to kill it or just move a few meters into cover, that is if your not a solotard who thinks being in a tank should make him a god.
the counter on a dropsuit to small arms fire is my shields or armor and my weapons, your counter in a vehicle to AV damage is your 3 turrets your crew, any squad members on the ground around it.
where is my dropsuit counter to tank fire, i want anti large rail ,missile,blaster turret counter measures
