Well The only problem with that is that the swarm launcher is nerfed and it doesnGÇÖt do that much damage to vehicles (IGÇÖm using the CB7 and it doesnGÇÖt do enough to take out a tanks even with damage modifiers on.) and the Forage Gun is heavy weapon and a lot of heavies might not want to run it due to the charge time or the fact that gun goes in the heavy slot or just because they want to use the HMG.
My suggestion is to limit the amount of vehicles for each mode the team gets. Say like a 12v12 map. Each team can have 2 tanks 2 drop-ships and 4 LAVs. I know right now each maps lets you have a max limit of 10 vehicles on the map. Well the only problem with that is, say the other time calls 10 vehicles before your team. Well your team is left with no vehicles to call in till one of the other teams vehicles are taken out. This will become a major imbalance if itGÇÖs not addressed and it would also help with the spawn camping problem a bit. Another thing is the war points and ISK for the vehicles. I know that a bug is stopping the Militia grade vehicles from costing anything but you should consider the cost of vehicles to cost a lot more for the upper tier ones. That away it would make players think if it would be in their best interest if they want to use a upper tier vehicle on said map.
This is just my opinion but the vehicle spam has gotten out of hand I personally think and I rarely see randoms worrying about the vehicles. TheyGÇÖll just let them drive/fly by and hope someone else will deal with them and about 70% of the games I play I rarely see anyone beside me dealing with vehicles. IGÇÖm not saying nerf the vehicles. IGÇÖm just saying consider limiting vehicles to a set amount per team not just give both sides a set limit of 10 and look over the ISK/War Point cost of them also.
i am totally against just about everything you said other than having reserved space for each team to have vehicles, but i do feel like 10 is about enough, it isnt fair that each team doesnt get reserved space, but...... other than that i dont really feel dominated by vehicles, and i think once grouping is added, anything that would dominate a game would have a much more difficult time surviving i.e. ur not just in a tnak killing a guy, ur in a tank killing a guy who has friends that are now mad at you.... |
