-please don't yell at me for bringing this up again, also I would bump the old thread if it weren't filled with spam/other suggestions seeing as how tanks are being remodeled, I think this is an appropriate time to bring this up, tank hatches are open even when no one is in the second seat and function as kind of "tank be here" flags, to me it seems kind of silly and I think closed hatches would give the tanks a more serious look there are two ways I imagine this could be done either by using animations or by using sub groups, I think animations would probably be easier but not sure
Also, give a machinegun so the person can get out and shoot with it. Having the driver control 3 different weapon is just unrealistic.... And give the ability to duck while you are sitting in the hatch seat, this is to protect yourself when people are shooting at ya.
Yes. Im also for adding an MG slot for the second spot to make them even more of rolling doom fortresses.
A bit of a side note. On escort I saw a NF guy jump off an overpass onto a heavy tank below, he landed right next to the hatch and had his grenade out. The scene was so perfect, I said to myself, "Oh sweet, he's gonna frag out that tank!". Then I remembered that you can't actually throw frags down open hatches. Be kinda cool if it was sort of a weak spot where if you land a grenade..... heh.
I think sticky grenades should have a special, hard to get area where they can take out a tank, but that is for another thread. the only hatch I don't like is the APC one, it blocks off the view for 2nd Passenger
I think all hatches should be closed, but i really want to see the ability to get explosives in a hatch that has been blown off for an insta kill. that would just be too cool.
