Nothing can be idiot proofed, so there's no point in going there with major design decisions. Idiots will be idiots, guaranteed. By that reasoning, the Gal is a bad idea because if the pilot gets pissed off he can he can kill 20+ people in two seconds... Unless they start bailing before he hits ground. That might be comical to see :P

Still the possibility of being dragged down by someone's incompetence worries me much more. I know well what I can do, but I'm not always sure what that-other-guy-in-my-vehicle can. It would not be a problem if I could eject him off gunner's seat and take someone more adequate, but I think that's too much to ask. |

just because you want to solo and because you never had a good driver does that mean everyone should? why did you not tell your driver where he was? so you want to have solo vehicles because YOU got shot once in a bad situation with 2 people in a tank you have 4 eyes scanning the area for enemys not 2 so if you did not communicate where the tank was effectively to your driver isnt that YOUR fault? |

On other: What about this stunning concept... If you want to solo, use items/vehicles that are solo oriented, like the Lightning. If you want to use a multicrew vehicle, like a MBT, get some reliable friends. If the opponents to my argument revolve around "So, dude, I got like this random guy I never saw before to gun (or drive) for me, and he turned out to be a fucking douche!" I can only say... You're doing it wrong. Go make some FRIENDS, who ARE reliable, and then you won't have this problem. This reminds me of people in Eve complaining about the corporate warfare in Hi-sec thing. You can play 95% of the game, and do not NEED to join a player corporation, but when you do, the rules change slightly and, look, war mechanics come into play! It's an optional thing. Just because you as a single individual can't do EVERYTHING is not a valid argument for why something shouldn't be included. For some things, you just need more people to do it effectively! If you don't like that... there's plenty of other things, approximately 95% of which do NOT require additional people. It's just a silly thing to argue against. The arguments for driver/gunner mechanics are valid (asshats and imbeciles, mostly). And yeah, they're pretty damn frustrating. That's why if you want to do certain things where that becomes more influential (like you want to run tanks) you need a circle of reliable people. If you take random idiots, you get what you pay for, in essence. He might rock, he might suck (more likely the second). -edit At the end of the day, all arguments for wanting to be able to solo a tank boil down to either complaints about other people being stupid (which is your fault for not making good friends) or wanting to be able to Rambo it and not rely on other people.

The driver buys his vehicle using his own ressources, and takes his own responsabilities by choosing who'll be his gunner. That's all. |
