I think you're making the ANT out to be far less interesting that normal. Honestly, even if you see no enemies (or friendlies) during that time, I can't see it being terribly boring to the point of ruining the game. Just hop in one, burn some rubber for 10 minutes, get some experience, and then see if there's a fight going on. Hell, after getting smoked several times in the same fight I'd probably hop in an ANT just to take a break. Is it the most exciting feature ever announced? No. Is it the worst thing since the Holocaust? I doubt it. But, even still, if they make ANT runs occur too frequently, then yeah, it'll become tiring to lose bases because nobody thought to refuel it or some such. Like so much else, this idea is good on paper, but whether it'll be good in-game depends entirely on its execution. If they botch it, it'll suck. If they pull it off, it'll be interesting and add some additional depth to the game.
