Player controlled Tanks and Aerospace turned MWLL into a cheap Battlefield ripoff instead of an Mechwarrior game.
It was not fun. It was a horrible concept and I am glad it died.

AI controlled Tanks could be an option - maybe for gamemodes far in the distant future.

This is the crux of the the situation. The level design will need to take into account the tracked vehicle class, if they would use the CE3 support for vehicles, Which I would imagine they would, playing a tank will probably not be very fun on any of the current maps. Not even on river city.

Disagree, playing a 200Kph hover tank would be great.


Edit:

Wait wait, Clanners think tankers are civilians? Are they insane? :|

Also the idea that tank armour has through armour criticals when mechs don't is source fluff to ensure that tanks stay inferior to giant stompy robits.

Because one thing is for sure. Tanks > mechs in a live environment.
