Are you guys for real? Of course they wont make a tank just suck, they are humans and they will try to keep things balanced. Yes, having a rotatable turret is better than having a fixed turret, which means that the tank with the fixed turret will be stronger in other ways. Same as how a tank that can strafe will be weaker in other ways than a tank that can't strafe. Thus in PS1 where the magrider was the only tank that could strafe it was significantly weaker than the other tanks. But now the lack of rotatable turret will mitigate that so the magrider wont be significantly weaker than any of the other tanks. In PS1 the hovering cost the tank ~33% armor and damage, in PS2 it cost its turret. Thus instead of just having light and medium tanks like in PS1 the Vanu will also have a heavy tank in this game.
