My suggestion is to have a preset quotient of vehicles, decided by a CEO/Director/Battle leader, of vehicles that anyone in the battle can call in.
These vehicles can be donated by any corp member, and then made accessible in an extra option on the RDV request screen.
Currently this ability is only possible if you're in the same location as the vehicle owner. I think it would be a good idea to simply have the RDV with their vehicle travel to your location.
I'd personally rather see other features such as corp armouries, role designations, etc etc, but I would love to see this some time in the future.
This is actually how I wanted vehicles to work in Dust, you could buy them yourselves, but they would typically be very expensive. but if you were flagged as a certain role, then you could store and access vehicles from the corp garage and bring them into battles. |

However....
The downside would be that it limits a segment of the community, tankers and pilots. Alot of people like just being able to jump into a tank. Its one of the reasons BF became so popular.
As a balance.
1. If going with the original idea of keeping vehicles how they are and just having corp hangers, no change is needed.
2. If making vehicles more expensive and powerful and more useful for PC,
A. You could make a new Super Heavy class of vehicle that is alot more expensive and powerful for use in corp garages.
B. You could have different versions, the light assault is designed for personal use and heavy assault for more corproate use, so then LAVs could become fast mini tanks, and HAVs would be the super powerful and expensive tanks. Much how Planetside has the little Lightning tanks and then the heavier Vanguard. |

I don't really understand why that's needed. It is the risk v reward, i would say that you have to have a thing like the MCC but it id for the vehicles or they would be packed into the MCC. then when you have you MCC destroyed you would loose all the vehicles you have paced into it. It would also limit the amount you can use. When fighting a war the most important thing is your logistics for the fighting.
You need PC and vehicles to be expanded upon , not contract and be used less. Currently vehicles see minimal use in PC because they aren't as effective as a fire team running on foot. You might have corps bring 4-6 vehicles to a battle, however I would like to see vehicles being a staple of combat, that both teams would field 2-4 vehicles at all times each. |

Lol, I can see it now, Protosuits are only used to Pubstomp newbies, whenever you go into PC, you switch to Militia so you don't lose $64 million in suits in one second. |
