Have an RDV actually come to pick up the vehicle when you do a recall.

Problem solved.

Like others have said, you can't recall a vehicle when it's on fire.

Sliver of armor left isn't the same as on fire.

What about a timer on being able to call in a new vehicle after a recall. Maybe one or two minutes?

Suicide into the redline! My sniper tank should be invincible!

Or stop wasting your time, redline sniper can just back behind the same rock and rep back up.

For what its worth though recall mechanic is stupid, I've been in slugging matches with other tanks and had them back behind a box and disappear, personally i think the recall mechanic should only work in the redline, so that ppl have to get back there before swapping tanks or pussing out.

the recall system is abusive I admit, but its fair for us to be able to recall it because you as infantry and AV have over 50 ways to kill us off and we have barely anything to keep ourselves alive, the recall system is fair because we finally get something that works for us, granted I agree on the animation of the recall, and RDV should pick it up once its recalled but it should take any damage since its being removed from the match, when its getting put into the match and into play yes it should take damage as its being called in but when its being recalled and removed from the match where it does nothing for either side then it should take no damage once it been recalled.

you as infantry and av call it an exploit, vehicle drivers call it our hope, its the only thing that we have that gives is actual ground when fighting against you

Thats because tank drivers were a bunch of whiny little cunts that wanted to play god mode and couldnt handle dying to concentrated fire
Oddly enough I find a lot of vehicle players come from EVE, you would think they could harden the **** up but noooo thats to hard

Im infantry, I have to worry about other infantry, LAVs, HAVs, gun emplacements, and sometimes dropships but those are exceedingly rare
Anyway go through my post history and tell me how many bitchy crying posts you see me make demanding that everything that kills me should be nerfed

Completely off topic, yesterday we were in a skirmish match on line harvest and you ran me off a roof top where I was forging from. Then I was attempting to shot your drop ship down and was having trouble due to annoying infantry. I swear I hit my second shot and saw you start to catch fire but I never got points and did not see it crash, did I take it down ?

I see that there is no reasoning with you infantry, all you want is COD 514, so whatever. and yes I do understand how mechanics work and you are trying to kill off a class type because you cant control us or overpower us as a whole.

HTFU you whining brat.

If you have beef with a redline, that's legitimate and you should take it up with CCP.

If you don't and you think that people should just gallop out to die a beautiful death (because you're obviously firing swarms at the tank - you expect him to drive OUT of the redline?), then grab an LAV or hiking boots or something and take a dive in. I've had some great confrontations behind the redline by people who adjust tactically.

Unless you have a reliable team, it's incredibly disadvantageous for a long range tank to decrease the distance between it and it's targets, you blithe moron.

And here;

We HAVE to stand still for a few moments to recall a vehicle, and only from one side of it (it seems so anyway).

And then you go on to say you want spawncloak after jumping into a new suit at a supply depot???
