There is a vote going on now in the feedback section by Ratti in a make shift pole post to remove Vehicles from Ambush OMS. This is my plea to save the game mode.
Ambush is the only mode where pure V vs AV action can take place. Removing Vehicles not only hurts pilots, but those that live to counter them. The vote to remove is currently leading the vote to keep by a small margin.

I'm uploading a new AV Montage now. Please let it be more than a final tribute to a dead game mode.
Video will be here when complete: http://youtu.be/OWz10ls5g48

No problem.
Bump, the removal is still winning. My 'support keeping vehicles in Ambush' video is published. That's its nice name. Soon I'm going to start calling it the 'How not to be a ***** when there's armor on the field' video.
Go Vote!

I solo every vehicle in this game regularly and consistently except the Shield ADS. Also keep in mind that end game payouts factor in ISK destroyed. The more vehicles called in and destroyed, the better the payout.
The only thing better than killing a vehicle pilot is killing him again in another vehicle in the same game. Thinking to my self "dude just lost a million ISK in a pub match"

Calling people with legitimate complaints whiners is in very poor taste Ratamag Doc. There have always been complaints about vehicles in Ambush, even before there was an Ambush OMS. Last winter CCP nerfed me out of that game mode with what they did to FGs. I'm glad you are able to enjoy it but other people need to be taken into consideration. Edit: RD is not doing the blame game. Sorry for making it sound that way. Things play out that way so often in these talks I'm seeing invisible "h"s now.
I don't see the legitimacy of the complaint. Since 1.7 the following things have happened to tone down vehicle god mode.
Simplified vehicle fitting and vehicle price reduction that made it to where any scrub could call in a tank and drop a well fitting and experienced pilot with luck similar to a protobear getting dropped by a milita light frame with a militia SG.
Sticky REs (probably the biggest pilot nemesis)
Reduction to number of vehicles that can be called in in ambush
Complete removal from regular ambush
Turret HP increase that removed both potential WP gains and now a major threat (I killed a rail Gunloi with a blaster turret the other day!)
Increase to militia and advanced swarm damage
I am not a pilot (other than LAVs) but I can imagine their frustration. Here is Dust 514, a game that was suppose to be different that Battle Field or CoD in that you could specialize in being a vehicle pilot, yet so much of the community wants that unique element removed it's almost heat breaking.
