Vehicle Seats Question

[kertvon]

What purpose does hot swapping accomplish in planetside 2??? There should be enough player saturation that finding teammates to man the necessary positions should suffice to negate the need for it. This is another one of those head scratching design revisions. The original vehicle entry position and external position switching worked just fine to me. I must admit that while I am super excited about this game, other than for the obvious reason (money) I can't help but wonder why the strict and complex merchanics of the original ps are being replaced with gimmicky nonsense. The game needs to be fun, not spoon fed.
