So far only the Americans do any landing action and so use the LVT alot, which is great, I like seeing them on the ships and I like jumping in with my own loadout to ferry the gang over
BUT
The part that annoys me is that your loudout for the LVT doesnt change the LVT at spawn, which is wierd. If its a tank a players abandons i can understand, but this is in spawn, its supposed to be the spawn.
So all these things i have to make them BETTER at amphibios assualts (HE arty cannon, better armour, etc) is essentially useless on the two maps we have now, because by the time I can spawn in the tank with my loudout, we already HAVE a beach head, and the most powerfull Shermans are available instead
And yes, You can argue that you can still spawn in it and do a flank, but 90 percent of the time the pay off is not there, and its on that iniitial landing that the LVT shines the most, so why not let us make it shine MORE?
Also, as the T-97 tanks get more and more specs, the balance shifts. Try adding 2 AT cannons that 1-2 shot landing craft and tanks and see how the balance goes.
The lvt customizations only apply if you spawn into the tank. I agree that it should be more like battlefield 4 in that when you enter a tank it shifts to your loadout. But that may make the lvts too powerful on the first flag in a game of breakthrough.
They get 2 shotted by my tank, though. So…Why not let the customizations apply? They will never be used otherwise, besides, they have good siege upgrades.
The thing is, teams should use them together. Instead they all go desperate directions. 2 vanilla lvts could take an upgraded tank if they would work together. There’s just such a lack of communication in this game that it hinders “good” team play.
Monty Python fan, I see. However, T97 has a better one. Regardless, I think it would be nice to adopt the loadout, especially for howitzers and aa guns.
this might be a bit radical, but what if to help tank communication and team work, they had a seperate chat or voice chat ingame, only accesable when you are in a tank, essentially turning all tankers into tank squads so they can work together as an armoured unit, because its rare that your own squad even works with you when you are in a tank, though I do take pride in making it very obviose to my squad that im trying to shield them with my tank
I’ve done that sort of thing a couple times against enemy snipers. Friendlies pinned down by sniper fire, then I role in front of them (the friendly) with the tank like “nope, not today sniper”
nice! tbh when it comes to snipers, i like to use my engine upgrade and jsut ram thier position, crushing them. Watcha gonna do? You’re headshot skills are no match for that which has no head >:3
