Ok well I think most people can agree that this feature is obviously broken. So I think there should be a few requirements that need to be met before you can recall your vehicle. Now not all of these need to be implemented but something needs to be done about the recall feature.

1. Modules cannot be on cool own when you recall. This stops people from just recalling and calling back in to get through their cool downs. This will hurt new tankers more then ones with a bit of SP investment because cool downs decrease through the tiers.

2. You cannot recall during combat. This stops people from just recalling because they are going to die. This would only happen with AV weapons or other tank weapons

3. I think there should be a limit on how many recalls you can do per match. Limit it to like 5.

4. Add a longer recall timer.

Post #7 This one has some pretty good ideas

I am always open to feedback too :). If you have any other ideas post them below.

EDIT: When I think of more ideas I'll update the OP. Also any good ideas I see I will put the post link in the OP.

1. Sure
2. Same with Infantry, make it so they have to out of combat for a certain amount of time before changing at SD
3. Same for Infantry, banned from SD after 5 uses
4. I'm not sure.

maybe tanks could only recall at supply depots?

I dunno if that would solve your issues, but I don't see how it would be unfair. Infantry can only change suits without dying at supply depots after all.

Limiting suits then

1. No changing suits if your suit is not 100% hp

2. No changing suits when the depot is getting shot at by enemy

3. No changing suits if your gun isnt reloaded

okay. then lets limit suit changes at SD's as well.

You get 5 a match.
You cannot change suits if your current one is too damaged(Let's say <25% armor HP left).
Your gun has to be fully reloaded(you're already at an SD. this shouldn't really be a problem.)

Sure you can. Right after you:

Buff every niche weapon in the game by giving them 20-30% extra damage, make my dropsuit invulnerable to all but 6 weapons in the entire game, give my dropsuit the ability to use nitrous to GTFO faster than even a scout could ever possible hope to achieve, buff my base HP to 4000HP, and give me a weapon that can shred vehicles without having to compromise anything.

Until then, it's not happening.

Vehicles just need to not be able to recall under combat. If you can't run to your back zone and LOS behind a hill or building you should NOT be able to recall.

If you want to risk an open-field recall, you should be able to try it but be interrupted (10 second cooldown) for each damage that you or the vehicle takes while hacking it.


And increase the recall hack time by about double.

This solves all those BS vehicles who will flip on hardeners to tank while hiding behind their vehicle LOS to hack-recall it. While knowing it would currently take 4 rail tanks to kill them fast enough before being recalled, and then they have saved their assets
in a losing battle
while under fire
in under a couple seconds.




It's one of the stupidest things in this game, right next to RDV's and how CCP can't make any small turret aside from missiles worth a damn after a year or 2.

can we make them more like dropsuits, and only allow recall within the vicinity of a supply depot?
