In Redsec, tanks can get to within at least 60 meters without being heard. Not sure if it's the noise of the fire in the distance. It's pretty annoying when I cross a road and get killed by a tank sitting there because 'Stealth Tank'. We should be able to hear tanks out to 150 meters under any circumstance, if not a greater distance.
Maximus I see you responded here and also to my recently opened discussion. Nice to see you active in the forums. Are you by any chance a part of the developers team?
I find it nice how you you argument things out! I also agree on the sound of the tank. I know we live in an era where there are electric vehicles but this makes it off balanced. The decision making lies with realism to bring immersion but we should not forget that it is still a game for entertainment. Design choices can be on a thin line.
If any developers read this. I am volunteering to become a part of the team ! I have more then 10 years gaming experience in shooters(and other games) and have recently finished a bachelor in creative media and game technologies. :D
They are quiet and aren't on the radar because their engines are equipped with a 30 point suppressor attachment.
In all seriousness, I agree with the distance to hear tanks. Would have to play around with the sound a bit though since you wouldn't want it to completely muffle out all other noise (e.g. running infantry next to you)
