King here, never spent a single SP into any vehicle, so I really have no clue at all.
Is it possible to stack speed boosters or whatever they're called on a tank to such a degree that its noticable faster?
I picture a weak tank with a midrange blaster and fast reppers as opposed to max tank.
This is not supposed to be a serious contender for PC or other tanks for that matter, a pure speedy anti infantry shameless pub thingy.
What are we talking about SP wise 5-10Mill?

1: you can't stack nitros on HAV's.
2: going no tank all speed on a HAV is stupid, so wouldn't happen anyways, for our current HAV's anyways. WOuld definetly happen for WInmatar HAV's.
3: Last time I checked, it was somewhere between 50-100% speed bonus, so about 125-150 km/hr. in any real situation. |

Nope. You just can't have any real variation and survive in PVP. Just as with EVE the variety I suppose will come with PVE.
It's a shame but, the conditions presented in DUST as with EVE are just so specific that you can predict the circumstances of a battle and therefore a fit. |

I met a tank like that once. Had a squad mate who was using proto swarms and we had another squad mate with a tank on the field. I was running militia forge with STD AV nades. We would start hitting it and in seconds it would be behind cover somewhere or up in the mountains, 30 seconds later it would come down with full health and would rinse and repeat. It actually snuck up on my squad mates tank and blew it up. |

Would be cool to see, unfortunately only Nitrous is available to up the speed of a HAV, Fusion Powerplants only increase their acceleration.
We used to have Chassis Mods, but CCP removed them from Uprising for absolutely no reason whatsoever.
I miss them.

I suspect that they removed them because they didn't want them messing up the new handling profiles for vehicles, that's just my guess though. |
