What are you talking about; infantry aren't invulnerable when spawning. I have been murdered many, many times before the black even lets up on the screen.

And, yes, I know that if you move your invisibility goes away.

No if this were to happen then people could spawn vehicles where ever they want. With out worry of their vehicle.

Maybe make the vehicle protected, but not the RDV? RDV's aren't the easiest things to take down, but it is possible.

lol... someone who didn't get the memo

your invulnerable for 5seconds after you spawn.

It's only temporary; after there vehicle gets deployed, it will not be invincible.

What I am saying with this is that someone shouldn't be able to easily bring in a tank when they are near a enemy home point. If someone is on a rail gun behind their red line then they can't prevent them selves from being attacked by something stronger then infantry.

Unless you start moving or shooting your invincible for 5 secs after spawning. Also you can kill the person while they wait for the vehicle.

The same way infantry is invincible when spawning.

Yea, howboutno? There is a marked difference between infantry and vehicles, and many people have made valid points. Furthermore, since when were infantry invulnerable during spawning? I've been killed many a time before I even get to move, or even TRY to move. We spawn INVISIBLE, as in incapable of being seen, but not INVULNERABLE, as in cannot be injured. If someone can link a DEV post to the contrary, then do so by all means. When a vehicle is being called in is a prime time to destroy it by design. If not, then they would just teleport in next to you like they do when you recall them. It is to punish a player for calling something in in a hot zone. If you spawn it in back at base, or behind a building, you won't see it destroyed so handily.

I vote no for this because some times that is the only time a tank is truly killable.

With all of the complaining that tankers do on this forums, I have seen several tanks across dozens of games be nigh impossible to kill (mostly armor tanks with their broken reppers) when on the field. True, they play smart and have good ground support, but no tank should survive 2+ ADV or higher Swarms and 2+ Forge guns hitting them consecutively.

I would agree with this, if hardeners were removed or nerfed, or if AV weapons had a penetration stat that cut through hardeners.

I litteraly just had 2 somas destroyed while on rdv by an invisa forge camper
both on opposite sides of the map

vehicles should be visible from the moment the rdv spawns in but the rdv should be protecting it with a shield until it releases it. this way your vehicle has a fighting chance and the enemy has time to mount a defence or get guys out of danger.

Hmmm.... are you saying the RDV's own shield extends to cover their payload but the vehicle is exposed after the RDV's shield is popped? That would be fair and sensible (I'm sure the Caldari would be wise enough to protect their deliveries from their drunk pilots)
