people constantly complain that vehicles are under powered and av is op mostly because everyone stacks damage mods.

now personally i don't understand why people put damage mods on tanks anyway but i'm not a tank driver so can't really speculate on that but for av i can.

my reasons for stacking damage mods as av in particular for use with swarms is purely down to killing the vehicle before the player can recall it. i like nothing more than to harass vehicle drivers preventing from doing their main role of killing even if i don't get to kill them but when the time comes that that vehicle needs to die then i need to do it faster than he/she can recall it and its as simple as that.

its incredibly OP for vehicles to magically disappear into thin air just because someone is shooting at it and then for the same merc to call in a fresh one almost instantly with full hp again. had a match the other day and the guy just kept calling in and recalling tanks until we eventually ran out of ammo.he was pub stomping in his tank so me and a few others banded together to take him out until 4-5 tanks later and no kills he exhausted our ammo supplies (inc hives).tbh it would be a fair tactic if the tanks left the same way they arrived giving the merc the choice of to fight or run.

imaging what it would be like if a merc could recall their current clone if it was taking too much damage.if i want to change or "recall a suit" i have to go to a re-supply. vehicle drivers don't have this problem and can change to any fit they want at will and potentially never lose vehicles all because of this feature

i'd settle for giving tanks/dropships more actual tank(not fitting options) as long as they could no longer recall vehicles and are blocked from entering the red line. these 2 reasons alone are the reason for the need for high damage av

Fix RDVs, then have them physically retrieve the vehicle.

Anything else is unacceptable.

you have until the rdv actually grabs it to destroy it

that would be no different than having them vanish into thin air.

Or your vehicle can only be recalled near the MCC behind the red line. And if you are at a a certain percentage in damage it can be recalled at all.

And what nerf to Supply Depot would you suggest in return?

Not having RDVs come and pick up the vehicles makes literally no sense.

If I can teleport the asset away, why wouldn't I just teleport it down in the first place?

Recall should be a RDV comes by and picks up the vehicle to take it away, just like when it was brought in. Which forces the vehicle scrubs to make sure it is a safe area to recall, rather than just goinfg behind a building and instantly putting their vehicle back in their inventory with 0 risk.

Cause if they try to do that in a hostile environment and a RDV had to come by to pick it up, the thing would get blown out of the sky, which is how it should be.

isn't the EVE motto "Don't bring it if you can't afford to lose it"?

Dust's motto for vehicles is more like "If you can't afford it, bring it anyway and just put it away when you are in danger of losing it".

fine. then every time you want to change your suit at a supply depot, you have to actually remove your suit, wait for it to construct your new suit, then wait for it to construct you gun, then wait for ammo. this process will take a minimum of 30 seconds.
