I'd like an APC though, as well as a Hummvee class vehicle in the game.
Uh no he wouldn't extra seats is the point of the apc module and thats the point of the lav |

Uh no he wouldn't extra seats is the point of the apc module and thats the point of the lav I'm sorry, I didn't understand that. APC's are designed to carry 8-15 people into the battlefield in a fairly protected manner. They are support vehicles. The LAV, while it can act as a support vehicle with some fits, it not designed to transport more than 1-2 people to the battlefield. Sure, it does this VERY fast and can be used as a sort of commando deployment method but not for the bulk of the force.
I mean the lav is what he would call a humvee class vehicle |

Not entirely accurate in military terms though. The Humvee carries a driver, a gunner and 2-3 more people. It's can also be (in some fits) armoured against even direct RPG hits. The Humvee is sort of a link between what we know as the LAV and what an APC should be. It's somewhere between them. But back to your point, for Dust I agree with you. At least for the moment we don't need anything heavier than the LAV for what the Humvee does. We need the LAV and for larger engagements an APC.
What if they made another weapon class in between the current ones(medium) to be used buy the apc driver to give it more fire power than a lav but less than a hav |

It's suppose to be faster than the tank with a driver controlled small turret and carrying more people
A bit like a bf3 or mag lav |
