How about if instead of a straight buff to HAVs (or a nerf to AV), each additional occupant gives a resistance bonus? Essentially your HAV becomes tougher if you commit more of your team to operating it.
Maybe also allow the tank commander to delegate driving or control of the main gun, or control of active modules, to another occupant, so it isn't just two guys along for the ride to provide the resist bonuses. |

Yeah... and additional turrets should increase speed! |

I agree. On the same note, I should be able to hop onto a heavies shoulders and give him a buff. He can operate his main weapon and steering and I can use my AR and our shields can meld together. |

I always thought the small blaster turrets should be able to shoot down swarms... back when you could SEE the swarms anyway. |

Are all the sarcastic comments because...
a) you think tanks don't need a buff at all
or
b) you think tanks should just be tougher, but otherwise as they are now

neither, we just don't want changes that will kill the want to skill into tanks altogether. I didn't skill into tanks for someone else to drive me around or for me to drive a dumbass around shooting random **** getting us both killed |

OK, fair enough. I've tried arguing against that position before, and it never gets me anywhere: tankers insist on operating their tanks solo, they insist their tanks must be significantly more powerful than infantry (because "tank") and they don't see the fundamental problems this causes for game balance. I thought maybe making it all optional would make it more appealing, but obviously not. |
