I actually have a report coming out in the near future discussing the proposed vehicle changes, and part of that includes my thoughts on where they need to take vehicles in the future.
I agree without a doubt that a capacitor system would be ideal in getting vehicles where they need to be. It promotes flexibility and utility, not single use weapons platforms that they're turning into. I've always felt that vehicles are that bridge between Dust and EVE, and while the existing system of cool downs is simplistic and easy to understand, it is not conducive to making vehicles enjoyable for the pilots or their enemies.
If a vehicle overhaul is what CCP is planning, this is the perfect time to implement such a system. Even if its a lot of work, even if it takes a long time, people will gladly wait for a vehicle system which makes the profession enjoyable. |

I want to give it a read.
Absolutely. Vehicles are very dear to my heart as I specialize in them (Though that's usually restricted to PC battles only because of the cost involved), and I think that it is an important issue that much of the community is interested in. While I applaud CCP for having the courage to re-make the system from scratch, I think the proposed changes REALLY need to be scrutinized by the community because I personally feel it is not the best solution. |

I dream of a day where I can pull up behind an enemy HAV in my LAV and flip a Neut on while my buddy rolls around the corner and nukes the defenseless tank. |
