Hi, i don't really have a ton of gameplay experience, having played out of the accademy for less than a week, but one thing that is striking me is the absence of veichle in matches, well except for the free LAV trying to run down people that is.
Usually if you see a tank it's on the borderline where it's somewhat safe to shoot at stuff without risking being annihlated (for perfectly good reason like anti armor infantry or controlled fixed position), otherwise it's lumbering around with the pilot screaming for retreat when shield goes down. Dropships are even scarcer. People is too scared of loosing isk to field them.
Can't we find a compromise? Like, i don't know, a pilot logist skill that let you field a free amount of vehicle ISK per match. For example you got 100 free isk per level (just saying). To avoid an amored army you could set a team cap for the total number of deployable vehicle in a given moment. LIke 3 tanks and 1 dropship, maybe +1 for each supply depot structure controlled or stuff like that.
I mean, i would like a compromise to try out some vehicle from time to time, i think it wouldn't ruin too much the underlying financial meta game. Or maybe a more simple approach like "you got one free veichle spawn per match" only for the random matches, that way you wouldn't impact planetary conquests, wich i don't know anything about but, as my understanding is, are supported by a heavy financial meta game wich could be ruined by lessening vehicle money requirements.
Bottom line is, can we have a somewhat more lenient policy on vehicle usage? I wanna drive a little bit around. Nothing game changing. Just let me try the excitement of a vehicle from time to time. What do you think? |

To the OP, there are plenty of vehicles in PC matches. That is where the real action is.
No sense taking tanks to pub matches, you don't get anything worth the trouble.
But i wanna have fun :(
I don't think i can get in any pc match. If i got it right there is some major issue hiring noobs in corps and letting them play pc matches. Fine i don't really care. I'm not that much into the whole underlying structure and politics of PC. Just give me the chance to try out those vehicles. One tank or dropship per match. I don't care if AV is op or whatnot in that case. I got to drive my tank a little, place a few shots, got to learn to pilot a dropship. Maybe when i'll grow up i'll be hired in a corp and field my vehicle in PC shelling ISK for it...
