What if...

The ACE atomatically holstered from inventory after detonating a boomer?

and if every unmanned nme vehicle was atomatically jacked if they where in the SOI of a base or tower when the base or tower hack went through?

Ahhh...well the ACE idea is cool...it would work like grenades to, right? I could see that maybe. Although I don't think it's a huge enough issue to be a major problem.

And as for enemy vehicles being hacked after a base is taken...that just doesn't make sense. What's the reasoning? Why? It doesn't have any logical reason for it, aside from "it's cool." And what about AMSes? They're technically unmanned, but would they get hacked? I would think they wouldn't, since it would totally screw over any fast- response effort to take back the base.

i'm not for the vehicle thing completely.
Maybe it could work with deployables! so theres no pesky lil spitfires and mines left in that base to leave the sour stench of their former empire once the base is taken

no and no. if your a cloaker you might want to get out another boomer or a medapp instead, and what criptica said about the vehicles.

Don't mind the ACE idea.

Don't like the vehicle idea, I don't see why it should happen. The deployables thing would be interesting though.

True. it's just more of an annoyance issue for me.

kind of a last minute thought... i know it wouldn't really have any bearing in the game. just a thought i guess.

That's cool, I understand. I'm not trying to flame you, lol. I could see where it would be cool but any patches that change the game so drastically have to have not only a logical reason, but it has to be something that everyone would want and vote for. The whole idea about the vehicles would be GREAT....if it only worked when the NC took over a base, lol. I wouldn't want the VS getting a hold of my vanguard, though.
