Vehicles are better now, they used to suck.

I'd still like to see the tanks more powerful, they should be feared on the battlefield.

nah.. magrider's don't scare me, i can usually take them out, its those hi speed vanguards i can never get out of its way, and the NC gunners have really learned to shoot those cannons.

I would love to see the gun on tanks upgraded greatly, but only if the running people over is fixed to a certain extent, for example if you are looking at the tank and are not directly in the middle of the tank it should not run you over, assume you can dodge. Because right now I rarely see a magrider with a gunner anymore, they all are used as floating battering rams.

Vanguards scare the crap out of me. We had one, just one circling our base we just hacked. We'd beat on it constantly, but it would run off, and repair, then come back to keep whooping our ass! An armored column of Vanguards when send me packing! Or at least get me to get my Prowler cert!

Vehicles are fine now, maybe more oomph on the tank cannons though. The 'run-over' radius should be adjusted too. There's been plenty of times I was run over by a mag when I was behind a stinkin' tree!

looking at the mag rider i can just tell that that very sharp steel edge would come in more handy than the pee-shooter on top

Vehicles are overpowered unless you have someone in your squad with a MAX.. or an AV weapon.. or a Special Weapons cert.. or a friendly vehicle.. or a minefield..

Overpowered my eye. Like I said before.. the CC is indoors. You can't take a tank in a base. And without open spaces you can't really use a tank to it full abilitys. And bombardment is useless without coordination to keep the FF damage down.

Pretty simple really, for every Vehicle there's 5 infantry with AV weapons that they probly got to kill MAXs, but will kill your tank just as well.

Reaver is the only truly effective combat vehicle IMO.

The onlly tank I don't fear is the prowlar, I'm just not impressed with them.

I have a pretty fun minefield story. We had a nice organized squad that was fighting on Hossin at that bio lab in the lower middle part near the 2 bridges. We just took it from VS after very heavy fighting and we want to load up and head over the east bridge to work on the next base. The VS had set up an AMS and took the tower right in front of the bridge so we took off in my sunderer with both cannons blazing and made it through the 30+ VS to the bridge with about 40% damage. Well I had the pedal to the metal heading over that bridge when I ran into a HUGE minefield at the end of it, man we blew up fast! You should have seen the 8 mine death messages! I bet that was one happy enginner.. the rest of the squad thought it was hilarious too 8)

Moral of the story-- Sunderer and mines do not mix well.

Vehicles overpowered? Naw. Only real complaint would be reavers. No engine sound, no machinegun sound and thick as flies on shit lately.

I suspect you just have yet to come across a competent Prowler crew, then.

A motorcycle would be a nice idea for a new vehicle. Maybe a hover cycle for the VS that I can chase with my strikers..

Vehicles going inside the base proper would be ridiculous and unbalancing...

Roadkill in the corridors? No thanks!
