That camera makes it near impossible to sneak up on a tank cause he can see you clearly from the side and at a certain degree from behind the tank. Gunners on tanks cant change the camera so why should the driver be allowed to do that? It destroys tactical positioning for infantry and scouts who want to plant remote explosives onto it have no chance. As soon the tanker sees some 1 standing next to him he drives away at full speed.
Tanks allready have insane amount of HP, highest damaging weapons and with that should not have the advantage of the 3rd person view.
I agree
Also camera drones =/= a disembodied invisible camera
if you want to make camera drones a feature, feel free to look from the perspective of the tank (1st person) and not some magical ghost from behind
Honestly at this point anything that gives tanks something to trade for their nice weapons, armour and speed in ADDITION to being an interesting feature is welcome by me.
Oh and by the way, tankers and AVers alike might as well permanently ignore Takahiro, I think he's broken himself |

and if you want to use camera drones as an excuse, would rather have Ewar as a balancing point in this aspect? Would you rather see Ewar that can disable your drones (completely blinding you) or 1st person viewports? |

If it's real I can destroy it.
This guy gets it |

Even better, too bad the whiny babes wouldn't have that
The only reason I started tanking was for the thrills (from late chrome to now), because there was a certain feeling of danger around every corner but meeting that danger with equal force and overcoming your fear meant domination.
Now the thrills dont pay the bills, and I found it almost impossible to make big profits even through PC. So, CCP decided to make tanks godly (removing the skill barrier) and even more mind numbingly simple than they were before.
Im ok with tanks having this kind of power (they are tanks after all, they should be the most dangerous ground vehicle in a flat offense/defense perspective), but there needs to be openings for infantry AVers to abuse like:
limited visibility
terrain affected movement
more vulnerable soft spots for AVers to poke at
Dedicated EWar equipment to partially nullify a tanks abilities (1/2 engine and hardener efficiency on a specific target, must be channeled by user)
I hope all of these suggestions eventually make it into the game to breath life and dynamics into V vs Infantry AV engagements |

3. If camera drones are real i should be able to shoot at them - They are cloaked and you cant see them
4. If camera drones are real i should be able to use EWAR to blind you/force you into FPV - They are immune to EWAR
You simply cant put lore above GAMEplay in a GAME. Ever.
If you want to use this made believe **** as an excuse for an argument, lore can easily be changed to suit balance.
