Hey guys, this is my first honest attempt at trying to earn a blue tag. I'll keep it short and sweet: Transport Light Armored Vehicle, or TLAV.
I would LOVE it if, instead of fitting a turret to the back of my LAV, I could swap it out for a troop seat. Call it a Squad Transport Module or something. Take out the turret, put in a bench seat on either side of the bed of an LAV. Justify the CPU/PG cost by including troop "shielding" that simply makes the hitbox of the LAV rise up to the bottom of a dropsuit's neck level to protect the troops being transported a little bit, but still allowing them to be shot or sniped, or even for a REALLY skilled or lucky grenade tosser to lob a grenade in there and kill the lot of them. Make it accommodate two troops at lvl 1 skill, for a total of 4 mercs riding passenger, 3 troops at lvl 3 and 4 troops at level 5 for to transport a full squad in a single LAV. It could require skill lvl 3 of LAV operation.
I think it'd make a juicy target for a savvy AVer, and an awesome mechanic for good squads on the move, without wasting two LAVs toward the team quota.
Thoughts? |

I don't understand... this is exactly what I just said. Lol
Are you agreeing with me? I'm not sure what's going on... |

I still have most of those stored away somewhere. Lol, I have the H.I.S.S. And the F.A.N.G. And I wanted the Rattler. Most of the others though are after my play time. Jeez, they got crazy with the vehicles. Pretty desperate. I guess G. I. Joe pretty much jumped the shark after I got out of it. That toy line really grew long in the tooth. Be honest though. Don't you think the "gay little turret" reference fits the small turrets on a tank so perfectly?
As much as I love G.I. Joes (which I think I can be NJP'd for, being that I'm a Marine), I really want to discuss my idea. I'm super excited about it, and I REALLY want to know what you guys think, and with any luck I might get a DEV to stop by and tell me what he thinks. I'd kill to know if this is would be an easy thing to code, or a difficult task. It SOUNDS simple, but only a real Dev could give me the down low on how possible it would be.
This is as excited as I've been about DUST since I first started playing, as cheesy as that might sound. Lol |

Because the only way to do what you're asking is to make another vehicle, without making a module for it. |
