It likely has been mentioned before, but I think this might be the perfect solution to finally end all this squabbling. Let me start with the quote. The question was in regards to the level of customization in PS2:



It's so shockingly simple. You allow the player to customize his tank to swap the secondary weapon with the primary weapon.

It can then be balanced fairly easily since we all know from our time spent in Lightnings that gunning and driving at the same time isn't the easiest thing in the world. From my point of view, it looks like the perfect split-the-baby solution, and it seems to be something the devs are already talking about.
To be technical, he didn't say you could SWITCH the primary and secondary weapon, regarding control...just change them. It is possible by changing the roles of each gun you could effectively "switch" them...AV vs. AI vs. AA
