add a night vision system to the BTR/LAV 25A1.
I can't see anything when I'm driving.
#BTR in night
cinder orbit
toxic notch
I agree, its really odd that all the infantry have night vision but the MBT and LAV do not
echo hamlet
Tanks do have night vision. Only APC'S don't have it. Which makes it even worse
fervent fossil
why not also add a commanding seat?
echo hamlet
why not also add a commanding seat?
Second player station is a great idea. But commander seat is boring af
MG seat for APC, like in BF4
dawn dome
Incredible how this still isn't fixed
Nearly a month and a half of apcs being cannon fodder on night maps
dawn dome
Ah yes, meanwhile apc gets nerfed
frosty needle
APC is pretty much a joke now
With that change
It's just going to sit on the edges of the map and snipe
dawn dome
APC is pretty much a joke now
so apparently the multiplier was even higher before
so this is actually a buff
though vilaskis also confirmed that nobody has time to sort out the vehicle situation lol
echo hamlet
so this is actually a buff
I wouldn't be so sure
frosty needle
so apparently the multiplier was even higher before
Was it? Oh. Still, i stopped using the APC as an APC a long time ago. You just can't. You have to snipe. Going in, you die almost instantly.
Imo the devs are either scared or strongly biased against vehicles. Which is a shame. That's half of the battlefield formula.
dawn dome
I wouldn't be so sure
wait why 🤔

they definitely don't give a shit about vehicles
i still love the APC though
despite it being made of paper mache and being janky as fuck
echo hamlet
It lowered dmg multiplier making it so now only tandem can one shot, while earlier heat and Ap also could, but now it's in obvious place and propably also few times bigger
dawn dome
oh did they change the model too?
echo hamlet
No, just rear is a bigger place than old weakspot
echo hamlet
If whole ass is a weakspot then it's extremely easy to hit
frosty needle
I can't tell you how many times I randomly die in the tank or APC to C4. Since they basically hand out C4 like rations, it's too easy
dawn dome
yeah
i have the most issue with tandems usually
just people double tapping me tandems
sometimes there's just nothing you can do
echo hamlet
We will see how it works after update goes live, tho I am not very optimistic
dawn dome
there's never anything to be optimistic about when it comes to ground vehicles in this game
frosty needle
If it gets too bad, sadly back to squad i go. I really like BB, but they really need to balance it for all players
Not just the gameplay they prefer
echo hamlet

True
dawn dome
all i can do is cope and hope they get it right with the vehicle rework (not holding my breath)
frosty needle
What's the vehicle rework?
dawn dome
they want to add more modern weapons like atgms
frosty needle
Vehicle load outs and skins would also be great!
dawn dome
and then make vehicles more modular, like damageable optics
frosty needle
Lol... But...
dawn dome
it sounds like they wanted to flesh out vehicles in general, making them more powerful, but also more vulnerable at the same time
frosty needle
At that point I don't think people will even hop in vehicles
dawn dome
yeah we shall see, definitely not an optimist
frosty needle
You didn't like tandems? Well now we gave 127 players heat seeking missiles to kill you with.
Because all players should have access to explosives
echo hamlet
they want to add more modern weapons like atgms
God that's terrible idea
I will protest
frosty needle
Lol sorry, I'm being harsh. But i would really love a dev to go over why they are so anti vehicle.

Nah, they won't be more powerful, I don't even hope for that. Easier to kill and more not fun to play for sure tho
frosty needle
This game is so close to being amazing, and the changes they are talking about has more chance to alienate part of their playerbase than improve the game.

well it sounds like CAS might easily become fucking cancer lol
they'd be quite powerful if they can sling ATGMs on tanks that can't even see them
echo hamlet
In short, it was said few times during streams
frosty needle
:Becouse they are annoying and most people don't like them"
Translation "we don't like facing them"
echo hamlet
Thats brings a question why did they added them
dawn dome
because they wanted to have a "Battlefield" experience
frosty needle
Most people I know don't mind them. It's just part of the game
dawn dome
except BF puts more thought into their vehicles
echo hamlet
They failed to achive Planetside expirience with vehicles
frosty needle
Most people I know think they are a joke and make a game of doing more and more silly ways to kill them
dawn dome
They failed to achive Planetside expirience with vehicles
tbh even PS fucked up their vehicles
tfw your tank has a slower muzzle velocity than a SMG 🙂
echo hamlet
Doesn’t matter, they play much better and are more impactfull than in BBR
Even tho objectivly PS2 armour experience isn't great
Oki played Squad and BF and he took propably only the worst parts from those games
And make vehicles weak
dawn dome
Doesn’t matter, they play much better and are more impactfull than in BBR
ehhh
partly a battle flow / spawn system issue, but vehicles in PS2 ended up devolving into HESH spamming tools
most of the objectives are walled off
big vehicle fights are pointless

Still better gameplay than BBR
dawn dome
at least vehicles can somewhat play the objective here
and CAS isn't aids
they never fully fixed the bullshit CAS in planetside
echo hamlet

I will disagree, you can play objectives better in PS. Yes, there are points when you can't have any impact on fights, but there are also points when side with better armour wins
And most points is somehwat in the middle meaning that armour have an impact
When in BBR, impact on contesting obj, depend if you can find LoS on enemies, which is rare
Also, it's much easier to kill armour in BBR
