Rattati wasn't a fan of vehicles we all know that but they were a very important part of the game for some people and if they're not even on the roadmap that is disappointing.
In Dust vehicles didn't have a meaningful role, starting again in Nova meant they could address this.
Also if the issue is balancing them with Infantry then just create vehicle only game modes

Vehicle only doesn't have to mean only ambush, I.e. attackers have to destroy the gates, defenders drive them back. Kill of the hill/secure the dropzone.
Then you've got PVE which is hinted at being on the cards
Separating it means less Av v Vehicle rage (whilst the system was unbalanced).
The issue in dust was the redline, it's presence meant we couldn't go for the high health/ low Regen model and were stuck with the Alpha damage or bust omi hardener mode

My concern is that without considering how vehicles could work from the start then the mechanics will be much harder to get right

it's like when they announced they were going to create more star wars movies, I'm stoked, but if you fail to capture the same spirit you end up with The Phantom Menace rather than The Force Awakens.

From my point of view it is JJ Abrams who is evil!
We were talking in discord earlier that it would make sense to create a separate SP pool for vehicles only, this would mean you are no longer forced to pick between a new suit or quicker turret rotation and therefore are not gimped if it's a non vehicle map

I can't help but think this mess (no vehicles) is entirely due to the Large Blaster Turret and it's anti infantry power.
If they'd gone with a Plasma Cannon style turret i don't think people would have complained as much, to get killed by it you'd either have to be unlucky or too damn close

I was watching some of the old trailers and they all heavily feature vehicles, like the vehicles are the main part of the game
Interesting to see how times have changed
