Just realized i used the mods tab and thats not what i had in mind lel so now i post correctly
Ok so for starters i think the game has huge potential for more vehicle types, other than tanks, so my idea as in other ww2 games is that the addition of another special vehicle slot per team, an armored transport vehicle such as a german half track, etc. could work not only as a vehicle but as a mobile rally point as well, with this system the player who owns the vehicle wont be able to build another rally point as long as said vehicle is active but said transport can only work as a rally point if it is “deployed”, standing still, with the same rules applying to engineer rally points.

if needed this vehicle can be relocated to another position and be “deployed”, once again and act as a rally point. These vehicles would obviously be armed and armored but nothing to crazy as they are meant as a support element not an offensive one, also said vehicles would be super vulnerable with the prevalence of explosive paks, and AT weapons pretty much all players have access to, so destroying said vehicles shouldnt be much of a challenge for the enemy team.
So let me recap my points in a small list.
light armored transport vehicle for each faction.
*only one can be active for both teams at all times.
*different slot than tanks and aircraft.
*acts as a rally point only when it is “deployed”.
*can only be deployed if stationary.
*if needed said vehicle can be relocated and be deployed once again.
*if needed said vehicle can act as an infantry support platform.
*thin armor and light weapons (mounted mg34, m3 browning, etc.).
*Can be used as a conventional transport as well i neeeded.
sadly this would not work in enlisted. maps are too small, infantry oriented and any vehicle deployed as mobile spawn point would not have cover at any meaningful distance for rally point and would be easily destroyed by infantry, tanks and planes.
Someone also have me the idea that these vehicles could also work as resuply stations for ammo, healthkits and engineer points, creating a supply system in Game.
Don’t get me wrong, I get where you are coming from. The only thing is that Rally points already exist and don’t get used enough. So I feel like this wouldn’t be used much either, unless they were only using it offensively, in which case, might as well just use a tank.
I do agree there needs to be more lightly armored vehicles though, you are definitely on to something. Just not as a spawnpoint.
Boats with some armor would be appreciated on Pacific.
Berhaps, the whole thing about acting as a rally is to give It more utility other than combat, hopefully more players build rallies in the default Game imo its almost always me, same with AA guns and AT guns.
I get that, but unfortunately a LOT of people don’t seem to understand that you can actually change your spawn point either. Had a game last night for example: my group had 3 spawn points up near objectives capable of being spawned on. The rest of the team STILL chose to spawn on the basic ones and spend forever running.
I think there needs to be a tutorial piece covering that above all else.
