Samuri_Bake_Pie 96 Posted February 16, 2014 Cars are going to be a nice addition, as will planes and choppers. However I think we need to EVENTUALLY see a tank. Maybe 1-2 per server, that's a decent amount. Not every single tank in the world is going to be destroyed in the apocalypse and Russia has plenty. They should be able to fit a crew of 1-5 and hold a small amount of stuff besides ammo. It'd be neat, what do you guys think? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Samuri_Bake_Pie 96 Posted February 16, 2014 It'd be neat to roll up and down the coast in one blowing holes up all around new spawns and making them get the "my crotch feels wet" message. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
frosti 2165 Posted February 16, 2014 But if there will be tank, there need to be items to destroy the tank. Can't make the same mistake as in the mod, where they removed .50 cal rifles and that made helicopters overpowered. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dimitri3p0 99 Posted February 16, 2014 I doubt it'll happen but would be cool. So long as ammo in the tank was very limited and maybe certain systems didn't work and or couldn't be operated by the likes of us, (e.g. broken turret, governed speed) or something. Otherwise it could be pretty OP. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Samuri_Bake_Pie 96 Posted February 16, 2014 Add land mines. Better yet, improvised ones that take up a bunch of smaller items. Like duct tape, some oil, a small container, gunpowder, something along those lines. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
infiltrator 275 Posted February 16, 2014 Too unfair, the only vehicles that I approve of are those that are vulnerable to small arms fire, or ones where the crew is exposed/vulnerable to it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you run out of gas, then what? If you stop, then what? You will be swarmed all around you and be forced to die inside your tank. They won't get in, but you'll have a tough time getting out. Tanks would be rare and hard to maintain. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tank is not that scary when locked on 1st person only view, but with 3pp camera it will be almost unbeatable. Endless trolling tank in Electro is not fun yeah. Tank can never be in game, too powerfull. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As much as i would like them to be in the game,you know that's gonna unbalnce the game.And in the wrong hands,they can level down each and every building in Electro,then destroy Cherno and have a picnic trip to Balota. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DeatHTaX 1217 Posted February 16, 2014 I think we can all agree that a tank in this game is never going to happen. It would be too easy for a player to obtain a tank, and just roll up and down the coast killing new players. Not to mention a group of people could guard it and keep it going forever if they have the equipment etc. to maintain it. But on the flip side, it would be so loud and noisy it would be practically impossible to avoid if you know what to look out for. What's the point in rolling around in a tank if you can simply just go the opposite direction and wait for it to pass? and base building? forget about it. How on earth do you stop a tank from rolling through your shit in the future. Too OP. Shouldnt happen ever, as fun as I personally think it would be to be the one in the tank 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ghostflux 100 Posted February 16, 2014 I don't mind if there are some items that are "overpowered" as long as they are extremely rare. Not something you can find on every server, not something that always spawns in the same spots. But a tank probably takes a lot of time to design, which may not be worth it if it's supposed to be very rare. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Samuri_Bake_Pie 96 Posted February 16, 2014 Realistically, if you get in a tank and study it, and play around with it, you can eventually learn it. Everyday Joe is not going to find a tank because they will be rare, and once you find one you still need all the tank specific parts, and rare ammo. Up keeping ruined belts and all that will be a real challenge. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
