The current vehicle quota theoretically allows for 6 tanks from one side to to be out at once; I have experienced this occurrence at least twice in the past. In such cases, it would require at least 12 players on the other team to play AV to successfully stop them, since it takes about 2 AV players to stop 1 tank, and having 12 players on a team of 16 end up on AV duty means that the enemy will completely dominate on anti-infantry, and on capturing objectives. It should not be possible to have 6 tanks on a 16 player team.
Lowering the vehicle quota would solve this issue, but would be far too restrictive; LAVs and dropships would be needlessly restricted just to limit the amount of tanks on the battlefield. A smarter solution is needed, which is why I propose that there should be vehicle quotas specific to vehicle types. Example: HAV limit 2, dropship limit 3, LAV limit 4.
Seriously, 1 LAV is not as tactically valuable as a tank, yet they each draw equally from the same resource pool; that doesn't make sense to be for balance.
The only change that I would humor is the concept that all vehicles that do damage requires a driver and a gun operator. I believe it should take 2 people at a minimum to operate a tank and 2 pilots to operate an ADS. Although I believe this I don't want them to make any more changes to the game. Leave it as it is and work on bugs for the next 6 months. |

I never liked that idea. It completely alienates lone wolf players and players that don't have a mic. Teamwork should be recommended, but never required just to play the game even casually.
I have to disagree. It's an MMO first. This is a MMO game first and a FPS second. It has no plot. It is 100% designed for PvP. This should be meaningless to players. If you are ONLY playing solo then you deserve the repercussion of any changes that get made that insist on teamwork.
For the record, I primarily solo. Probably 60% of time. I accept that no squading up has a negative impact on me in some games. |

Although it's just that currently, there are plans for a PvE component as well.
EDIT:
I said one thing but now I'm just going to state that your statement is contradictory. "Wrong, this game is not designed to be 100% PvP. Although, it's just [100%] PvP currently."
So they never designed it that way it just showed up currently as 100% PvP and they have been working tirelessly since the trailer of the game over a year ago to get PvE? C'mon man. Your statement is just ridiculous. It is 100% a PvP game. It was designed 100% PvP but advertised differently. Reality is that the game is PvP only. Get over it. |
