Hi everyone at CCP.
I would like tanks ability to use third person mode removed, since it: 1. Semi-Negates the use of scaner modules. 2. Is not realistic, theres no camera drones that you can shoot down above the tank. 4. Make turret turn speed skill have a great impact on tank gameplay. 3. Make tanks more vulnerable to flanking AV infantry.
If third person is removed, tanks will actually require skill to move around inside complexes and it makes you more vulnerable to infantry. This means that blaster turrets can stay the way they are. Tank Hp can stay the way it is, and everyone can enjoy tanking more due to it being hard to master.

Maybe it should not apply to dropships. But Its a great idea for versimilitude for LAVs and tanks.

Another solution is to move the tank camera in third person forward a bit so you cant see behind the tanks turret 'top'.

This is how it is to drive a tank IRL. You get limited view in the back, because view port (or camera) is located in the front (possibly also to sides and back), and you want the turret aiming forward or few degrees off forward to ricochet incoming projectiles to the side, effectiveness reducing the impact angle and projected forces onto the thick armor plates in the front.
Maybe you should be able to toggle the third person camera from front to back, but the way it is right now is pretty unrealistic even in new eden, there are no cameras like this, except if you have a camera drone (doesn't exist now).

I'm sure people could look behind their tank IRL though.
Im just proposing another view of what might be the root of tank spam, they are heavily armored beasts that are easily manouvered by anyone, without any real weaknesses.
