How would you feel about tanks being changed to a two man team....meaning a driver and a gunner?
IMO it would help out non tank users. If one side brings in 3 tanks that would mean 6 players aren't battling over objectives. It would also mean if the gunner or driver gets out to hack and die, the tank would have to run or do battle sitting still.

IMHO a good Idea,that has been brought up before and tankers don't like...this is the short summary to the ongoing discussion around this idea |

I've seen many 2 man teams in LAVs that have no issue taking down mercs. |

This would fit in nicely with the other vehicle operations in DUST as well
LAV has Pilot and needs to switch seats or have gunner if you want turret to operate
Dropship has Pilot and needs gunners if you want turrets to operate
Asslt Dropship Has Pilot with SMALL turret and needs gunners if you want door turrets to operate
HAV SHOULD have Pilot with SMALL turret and have to switch seats or have gunner if you want MAIN turret to operate

But that would mean that tanks would need teamwork to kill infantry.
So, that'll never happen.

BF3 has tank drivers operating the main turret in addition to a secondary weapon, be it an auxiliary LMG for anti-personnel purposes or a guided shell for anti-vehicle. Be happy that in Dust tank drivers only get the main turret and not an anti-personnel weapon as well.
That's where the second player comes in. If you want to have better anti-personnel/vehicle abilities, that gunner can come in handy.

Such an awful idea. I pay for the tank, my gunner gets the kill... that's just beyond ********. I would quit tanking (probably quit the game) if CCP some how manged to listen to the fuk tards that suggest this idea,

My only issue is tanks are a main role AV is not you will have to always squad with people who are experienced and know what they are doing and work as one. It is easy to find AV teammates my self I usually squad with my Corp and alliance and in any given squad there will be two or more people with proto AV who you can work well with and I assume a lot of DUST does the same even in random squads there is usually 2+ people with pro AV. I don't want to spec into a good main turret so I can't use it I currently have around 4-5 million in Large turrets that I would not be able to use.
Maybe when ADV an Pro tanks are released we can also have officer tanks which require 2 people to use which will have some bonus that Pro tanks don't have. I would also like in that case a capacitor version of tanks where you would not have to risk an officer tank for practice

There are Dropship pilots that had been operating for nearly a year hardly getting any WP/SP and the good ones didn't quit, they kept on flying until they finally started getting WP/SP for their efforts... Because it is a CREW vehicle.
The HAV should be the same.
This is a TEAM based game, learn to operate as a crew, and play for the Teams benefit and not your own

And now they have Assault Dropships and most pilots don't have any additional gunners, so much for a crew vehicle.
Definitely not, if it happens I'm gone, I put all the SP into the Vehicle, I put the time, I put the effort and the ISK. Hell even BF doesn't have this.

Should be a crew of 3 (driver, gunner & commander) so that a tank can be 3 times as powerful as a dropsuit without being unbalanced.

Why did you assume that you wouldn't be the gunner? Were you too busy raging & insulting the OP to think straight?
