i want pets!

[RickySpanish]

AI tanks and AI 'Mechs, but that'd require more than xml changes.

[w0qj]

Start to sound a bit MechCommander, one of my favorite games!

[My Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ]

Ignoring the fact that the game is Mechwarrior and focused on mechs, the maps aren't designed for vehicles as well as loads more issues.

[Monkey Lover]

Sounds like a good plan to me. Russ said he couldn't sell mech packs because we have too many of them. Well we don't have any tanks.

You're like that guy asking for quads, except for tanks.

[VonBruinwald]

Given how squisy tanks are it would be nice if dead players could re-spawn in tanks. Nothing so powerful as the Alacorn but rather something a little more humble like the Po.

[Palor]

A new Consumable that calls in a drop of tanks or elementals, or something that sits, fights, and gets blasted.

[LordNothing]

id just make the damn things consumables. you deploy it at a location and a drop pod comes out of orbit and lands a tank on the spot. they then try to guard the position and shoot anything that is in their firing arcs. vtols same thing, except they fly in from your side of the map. teams can coordinate to mass their support vehicles. like i said, pets.

I would love to see combat vehicles in MWO, be it tracked or wheeled tanks, hover tanks or VTOLs.

Perhaps not as player-piloted vehicles like 'Mechs, but as one-shot consumables. Very simple AI: "Attack the closest enemy target."

As for the exact type, I think that the Manticore would be a good, versatile and era-appropriate choice.

nah, stick to mechs and get it right. I cant see anyone coming to MWO for playing tanks.
With that being said it would be fun have a few AI tanks and step on them and crush them like a can of coke.

Oh I think they would for these.


Oh since someone brought it up

[Johny Rocket]

What ever argument against it I don't care. I want it.

[Helsbane]

I'd love to see tanks added.

[LordNothing]

the f2p model would work a lot better in a combined arms environment like mwll. more stuff = more stuff to sell.

[MW Waldorf Statler]

No Programmers and coders for bring this in the old now Lost tech cryengine (seeing the IK and Collisions Knockdown system) ...this smaller Units brings many problems with Hitzones, Collisionssystem and Climbsystem (pebbles stops 100 t Mechs)
