I think it would be a nice change of pace to have secondary objectives spawn in a couple militia/basic fitted vehicles with the RDVs once the objective is taken or destroyed. Fun for blueberries and a neat little carrot-on-a-stick.
Or maybe drop in a couple of turret installations to help reinforce an objective?
I swear I've seen videos in Dust where a team began the game with some vehicles spawned in on the map already, but for the life of me I can't find it.

I both agree and disagree:
Fielding our own assets *should* be the main goal, and this happens when we decide to use stuff better than Militia/Basic.
I also feel that there should be a "floor", if you will, to the kind of stuff that is fielded on map to help shake things up a bit. Not a lot, but a bit. Tossing one or two temporary assets on the field for people to use isn't going to remove the incentive to use your own better stuff....
If you're a skilled tanker you'll be using your own better tanks rather than shtfit Militia or Basic, which can be destroyed even easier by AV.

So why not let people have a test drive of stuff they're considering skilling into and ultimately use on a more regular basis, rather than some side-objective on a random map?

A central aspect of DUST is that everything you are deploying are things you set up ahead of time, you paid for, and are assets you lose when they die. Having free versions of these items that can just pop up is contrary to that vision of personal assets.
I feel it should always be a goal of DUST to move -toward- fielding more of our own assets, not less. from a lore stand point it could make sense. sure we need to supply ourselves with our own assets but what if the small perks of capturing an objectives deployed an LAV or a Dropship or turrets by the supporting Corperation your fighting for?

@Maken Tosch
I would wholly support such a training area for things like tanks. I do still think, though, that having turret installations drop to reinforce an area (obviously in a balanced manner) would help shake some things up since we can't drop those yet ourselves.
@knight guard fury
I'm aware, I thought the resemblance to the conversation was funny.
