Assault Chileanme Molon Labe. Public Disorder. 15	Posted - 2014.01.08 19:25:00 - [1] - Quote I know there is plenty of discussion about vehicles at the moment, but shouldn't some attention be paid to recalls in the grand debate? The whole idea of a recall, especially an instantaneous one eliminates a lot of the balancing features associated with the vehicles. Active Modules on cooldown? - Recall Running low on ammo? - Recall Low on health? - Recall Don't want to risk losing your baby anymore? - Recall Recalling a vehicle comes with zero risk which means that calling in a vehicle comes with greatly reduces permanent risk since that investment can be put back in the bank at a moments notice. I'm not an expert but perhaps a few of the following could help the issue or at least get some talk going. Only allow a recall at a supply depot - This is exactly to how dropsuits work since they can not change out of that expensive proto suit investment unless they run up to a friendly supply depot and change suits. (This might also have the added bonus of pilots caring about supply depots rather than wanting to destroy them constantly) Require an RDV to come down and pick up the vehicle and then carry it off into the sky, similar to the initial vehicle deployment. - This would introduce a little bit of risk into recalling and give the AV a chance to shoot it down. Not allow recalls unless the vehicle is at full health with all modules off of cooldown. Charge a fee for each recall (could be based on the total vehicle price) - Would probably have to be a pretty steep fee or it would become a non-issue. Simply create a 5 or 10 second timer that counts down to recall once initiated. The simplest, most crude, and probably least fair would be to just eliminate recalls all together. Again I'm not much into tanking and gave up on AV long ago, so I would welcome any constructive feedback on this topic. These are just my thoughts as a lowly infantryman.

Soraya Xel The Corporate Raiders Top Men. 1003	Posted - 2014.01.08 19:55:00 - [4] - Quote Absolutely necessary. Unfortunately, a whaaaaambulance will follow any such changes, as tank drivers do not believe in risk, because bringing a fit that costs as much as maybe two dropsuits entitles them to never lose it because they put so much money into it. Recalls should be RDV calls, they should take time, and you should have a cooloff period to summon a new vehicle after a recall. Additionally, you should not be able to initiate a recall within maybe 30-45 seconds of combat, either doing or receiving damage, so that recalls can't be used to escape combat. I'd like to be your CPM1 candidate

TL;DR but its only fair that we can recall when you can change suits at a supply depot.... Edit: you fools can be revived...

That's why I said that vehicles should be allowed to be recalled at a supply depot or by RDV. The issue that I see isn't necessarily that there is a mechanism to change and adjust your role on the battlefield, I just don't like seeing an almost dead tank zoom across the map into the redzone within a few seconds and then instantly recall with no chance for the AV to land the killing blow.

Ok, then you cannot change suit at supply depot if you have been shot in the last 50 seconds, you cannot change suit if say you are running heavy, you ran 3 minutes to a supply depot but you have 200/500 armor left and no armor repair. If you recall your suit should stay at the depot for 20 seconds so you can get shot at and enemy has chance to kill you.

You like to ***** and moan but even the 3 seconds it takes to navigate the menu at a supply depot is more than enough time for a person to get killed since they are a nice stationary target asking to be shot in the head, maybe you would know that if you got out from under the security blanket of a tank Needing an RDV to come pick it up and whisk it away when you recall a tank is something thats perfectly fair and makes recalls far less abusable without adding any extra conditions Im not drunk, the planet just happens to be especially wobbly today.

Guess you never driven an tank and tried it. You are not able to recall an tank if its on fire you must repair it to where its not on fire then can recall.

I know right, its not like supply depots dont get blown up, its not like we are sitting ducks changing a suit, and we totally carry supply depots on our backs so we can change suits anywhere we want You guys need to come up with an argument that actually has some weight behind it and not "Waaaah I dont want to have balance, you guys have supply depots and even though that has limitations its totally fair I get to hop out of my toy and Q up another one that will be dropped off by the time I recall my old one" Im not drunk, the planet just happens to be especially wobbly today.

Operative 1171 Aajli Bragian Order Amarr Empire 1008	Posted - 2014.01.08 20:44:00 - [20] - Quote Only allow a recall at a supply depot - This is exactly to how dropsuits work since they can not change out of that expensive proto suit investment unless they run up to a friendly supply depot and change suits. (This might also have the added bonus of pilots caring about supply depots rather than wanting to destroy them constantly) Can't even resupply at most depots atm. They are either mounted up high or blocked. I destroy any depot on the field that is red and my team doesn't hold the obj/area. i'd still do this no matter what due to tactical reasons. Require an RDV to come down and pick up the vehicle and then carry it off into the sky, similar to the initial vehicle deployment. - This would introduce a little bit of risk into recalling and give the AV a chance to shoot it down. Why go this far? You can already shoot at my vehicle, even in the redline, and it is undefended with no hardeners going. Does AV really need more crutches? Not allow recalls unless the vehicle is at full health with all modules off of cooldown. The best sane idea. Charge a fee for each recall (could be based on the total vehicle price) - Would probably have to be a pretty steep fee or it would become a non-issue. Huh? No. Simply create a 5 or 10 second timer that counts down to recall once initiated. The second best sane idea here. Why even mention the others? The simplest, most crude, and probably least fair would be to just eliminate recalls all together. Yeah, stupid idea. This smacks of "I hate tanks" tankophobia.

You are out of the tank yes but you can still move while recalling, Ive done it myself, and being able to strafe around a big piece of cover while being able to take out a gun at any moment is worlds away from being locked in place with a menu in front of you either hammering cancel when you see hit indicators or hoping the suit manage to switch to isnt full of holes in the second of vulnerability you have while switching Im not drunk, the planet just happens to be especially wobbly today.

Again I'm not much into tanking and gave up on AV long ago, so I would welcome any constructive feedback on this topic. These are just my thoughts as a lowly infantryman. The first two points are kind of absurd. Here's a set of questions for you to answer: 1. Did you know the recall turnaround is about 15 seconds?( you actually have to wait for the time it would take an RDV to come down, attach and carry it off I timed it by dismissing a vehicle as someone else called one in) That's about half the militia cooldown, then you got to call it back for another 15 seconds. It's not really that much shorter, and gives away the position of the tank. 2. What do you do if ALL of the supply depots are destroyed on the battlefield? Had this happen in about 20 games yesterday, including the ones in the redline on both sides. 3. If the tank is burning I can see that being a hazard, yes, that one sounds logical. But with repairs as they are anymore they don't really burn for that long unless you didn't have a repair module... in which case the tank deserves not to be recalled. 4. Fourth one is just you whining about something. a¦á_a¦á You're going to have to be much more clear than that. Now to address your suggestions: 1. Again supply depot question. 2. This is already what they said they were designing, kind of amazes me how blind some people are. 3. And what do you do with a glass cannon that doesn't have a repair module and is sitting with 1 armor taken off of it? (hint most logistics don't bother healing tanks, and most tank drivers don't carry repair tools) Now, What do you do? 4. AND 6. Be prepared to borkbarrel these effects onto your dropsuits as well. They would never pass anyways because they're not solutions, they're ideas of "how can I screw the other people over?". Kind of like say... suggesting to charge a fee every time someone reloads their handheld weapon? Or preventing dropsuit units from being able to restock any ammo without the help of a supply depot (bye bye nanohive). Do either of those sound like a viable, or reasonable penalty? (if this 'suggestion" set sounds outlandish, take a look at the first of the four above, cause it's exactly the same thing otherwise) 5 seems like an actual option, but the RDV recalls are underway.

CLONE117 planetary retaliation organisation 565	Posted - 2014.01.08 21:41:00 - [27] - Quote it does take time to recall the vehicle...the driver just uses the vehicle as cover from gunfire during that time though.. and there is a certain period of time in which before u can call another vehicle down its not instantaneous what they r probably doing is calling a second vehicle down and then recalling the first1 as it takes less time to get the fresh vehicle that way. but that also means it takes more time for them to recall that first vehicle. and....i havnt seen hardly any1 pulling that crap since 1.7 why r ppl still complaining about unless it was some sort of std tank that just so happened to barely survive a massive av attack. the many tanks i see i manage to blow up. i kinda almost forgot about vehicle recalls untill now...

I'll answer these: 1) Yes, how long is the tank you just jumped out of and started recalling on the battlefield unprotected? 3 seconds? 2) Destroying Supply Depots is a tactical decision, suits cannot switch to AV or resupply either. Tanks just destroy these right now anyways. They get destroyed...Too bad for tanks and dropsuits alike. You could always be destroyed and call in a new one...exact same as dropsuits or you could defend the depot. 3) You literally have to be burning to not be able to recall, how low is that in terms of percentage of health? Now to suggestions: 1) See answer #2. 2) No real comment because I'm lost. 3) Grab a friend with a rep tool or carry one yourself...how do you think dropsuits do it...magic? 4) The fee is a good idea, sure throw a fee for dropsuits if they can change suits from anywhere...I'm down with that. A proportional fee would be great. +1 to you tanker. I realize that you would have to rework supply depots so tanks could actually get near them. Also be great if vehicles like LAVs with a mod could resupply tanks. Supply Depots are meaningless to tanks right now but are priceless to dropsuits...that is wrong.
