OK, I only read first 3 pages of this thread so if it's already suggested, I'm sorry
How about a compensation ? Let's devide HAV into 2 category a light tank and a heavy tank.
1. Light Tank will operate the same as it was. Single player both driver and gunner just like any other FPS. In turn, this kind of tank will be balanced accordingly. A paper tank just like any FPS tank out there.
2. Heavy Tank will require a squad to man them. Just like what we suggested in this thread. This kind of tank can be uber killing machine like it currently is but need more men to operate, more teamwork require and more rewarding when killed.
PS: This way everyone get what they want. Solo FPS tanker got to drive & shoot. AV tank hater got some easy tank to kill. Hardcore team-based tanker got to work with his friend and a tank that can actually tank something. |

I'm not sure how light tank will make LAV any less useable than it currently is. The light tank I suggest is no different than current tank that is running around right now but ppl still use LAV.
My light tank will be current tank with more Nerfed. The heavy tank will be an unnerfed (or even buffed) tank that need two men to operate.
I personally like the diea in this thread. It will make tank look a lot more.......tank-like. Nevertheless, we have to admit that majority of FPS tank driver out there won't approve of this idea. However, I believe we don't have to go one way or another. We can have it both way. Everyone will get what they want. More variaty in battlefield. More item to sell for CCP. |

Heavy tank -3 gunners (1 large 2 small) -slower turning speed -12mph -very expensive (1mil for a standard tank at least) -about 160 % of current havs hp
Exactly what I proposed, although, we don't need need to be hurry about it and we shouldn't. A lot of things need to be considerd to implement squad-based HAV.
Implement this kind of tank need a lot of work. It's not at hot-fix level. It's more like implementing a brand new vehicle altogether than fixing the existing one. This suggestion should be "ADDING NEW FEATURE" not "REPLACING EXISTED FEATURE" (Add one then remove one, what is the point?)
For now, CCP can balance current HAV with Light/Medium tank in mind. Nerf it so it's soloable (since it can be solo-operated) which they already did.
Sometime in the future patch, when everything is throughly thought out. They can give us new shiny SHAV that need squad to operate.
Then, everybody will get what they want
