Ooohhh yes. Lets separate them. You know, while we are at it, we should separate the eve pilot and the person who targets the enemy ships. |

Come on Debacle, stop being so close-minded it's just a suggestion. CCP even offered it up as one and the community freaked out about it so they nerfed the ever living hell out of tanks and buffed AV straight through the roof. I agree with separating them because then it forces a team-play element, and my everlasting hatred of Call of Duty being too mindless of a game to involve team-play elements biases that. I think the BEST OPTION would be to give -ALL- vehicle ammunition amounts so that they have to hit up a supply depot in order to get more ammunition. At least then there'd be times when the Tank would -have- to break away from engagement or else run the risk of not having weaponry to fight with. It'd involve a lot more thought about what he should use his weaponry for as having a Railgun Death Cannon with only a dozen rounds wouldn't exactly be apt for use against Infantry.
Ammo, yes. Having to at least have two people in a tank for it to be useful, no. The driver would have to pay for the tank, and have to spend all of his SP into something that, if his buds aren't online, is completely obsolete. There'd be very few people skilling up into them as the battles they go alone in, would be all militia dropsuits and they wouldn't be able to use their tanks.
I'm not being close-minded, I'm being smart. |

The prices need to be lowered if tanks are going to remain this weak. |

Dropships are meant for transport and insertion of troops. I can still insert randoms without having to coordinate or communicate with them while in a dropships. They just get in when I take off and hop out when I land. It's not the same for HAV's. They attack and defend which requires coordination. |

Yes bold and link me everything. |

Yep. Which is why I said that you can't operate a tank without friends, which means that no friends = wasted SP = waste of time. |

No. I am admitting that anything shouldn't be able to solo a tank. |

By saying that if you needed another crew member, you wouldn't drive them?
I wouldn't skill up into them as I would only be able to operate efficiently if I had a squad member with me. Not worth the time. |
