Greetings again forum, it seems no one has really touched on this subject so I'd like to do so and welcome concepts and ideas from others of course! The other thread about MBT's lacking defense prett...

Meanwhile the anti ground vehicle missiles of the Wildcat have both a great range and with a SOFLAM can lock on to aircraft and oneshot them.
The MBTs are just sad.
Clumsy, can be taken out with 4 M5 missiles which is the max a single soldier can carry in a game where everyone can carry 3 on spawn.
Their turret is slow and limited in angles and is the first thing to break if someone shoots at the tank, their blast is weak, their machinegun is doing the damage of a sidearm.
I keep telling people in my games to not waste armored slots on MBTs and level their wildcats
In my experience Wildcats are only a threat to a tank at close range.
I've learnt to engage them at distance and put them in their place.
I'm always checking the main map to spot the enemy Wildcat and then I hunt them down.
As for tanks in general and what I want.
- Increase acceleration speed from a standing start
- Sort out the broken reverse mechanics. The worst in the entire series
- Fix and also improve counter measures against AGMs otherwise tanks will just hide under bridges and underpasses all round
- Increase splash damage of main shell
- Fix broken 3rd person aim when close to objects
- Raise turret angle so good chopper players don't have an easy kill by pounding the tank while staying above turret max angle
I'd be happy with that to be honest. I don't mind a stripped down tank upgrade path after BFV.

personally i don't think any vehicle should have 3rd person view if soldiers can't, but that's just me
- @Psubond Infantry do not get stuck on pieces of terrain, or objects and don't have to contend with a large surface areas as their bodies nor are they limited to only going where wheels or tracks can take them. On top of that if this was done not only would this be more wasted time orienting the turret to see if you'll fit somewhere, that just leaves even more vulnerability to getting attacked without a way to retaliate against peeking and firing infantry or just having someone simply walk up to the side of your vehicle, but you know that already I'm sure.
Yes we get it, given your past posts, you want easy risk free kills because you dont like vehicles in a combined arms game, and want to be a superhero who can stab a tank with a knife and do damage.
