Vehicle spawn stuff... and WHO OWNS it...

[Dearmad]

1:
I sorta don't like that unoccupied vehicles just blow up. IMO they ought to remain until destroyed. Not easy to sneak via boat somewhere do some destructive stuff and then get back to your boat to leave for more mayhem elsewhere on some maps...

Spawn times should be longer too. Or a server option.


2:
Also, like in CoD taking over an enemy vehicle should take about 10 seconds of time to "figure it out" and/or "jury rig" it. Hopping INSTANTLY into a chinese tank for an american shouldn't be 0 time- you don't have the frickin KEYS!

Not too bad of an idea, actually.... From my experience it takes a LONG time for a vehicle to blow up after being left unattended though... It's never been a problem for me to get my boat back after I crawled ashore to do something... The only problem with having vehicles as completely persistent is that you could steal the enemy's tank, drive it off into the red "border" area, wait to die, then have the tank be inaccessable for the entire rest of the round...

Oh I'd just assume it would blow up in the red zone. But HIDING on somewhere else seems like a totally legitimate trick to do... In fact it would add a bit to the game IMO.

LOL at the nasty comments people would give to whoever got clubbed while outside his tank and lost it at the front line...

If you steal the main enemy tank (like in Sharqui) towards the beginning of the game, you should never use it on the frontlines. You do far more damage depriving the enemy of a tank than you can do with one spawn. Plus it irritates the hell out of the opposing team. That's just the penalty for abandoning working vehicles that an enemy engineer might find.
