APCs were brought into the game to help fill a niche role.
To allow players to transport troops directly to the objective doorstep, then drive away and get more troops.
Unfortunately it quickly devolved into driving up and parking somewhere to be used as a standard rally point.
ON OFFENSE:
Currently, players are allowed to start in the trucks themselves, but other players aren’t able to start the game in the back of the truck, nor are they able to get in when the truck player passes by them.
This then leads to players just parking the trucks to use as rally points rather than using them to their full effect and making a significant difference to the momentum of their team.
ON DEFENSE:
Currently, players are allowed to start in the trucks themselves, but other players aren’t able to start the game in the back of the truck.
Why would they need to?
Either to make them the reinforcements when the objective gets shelled into oblivion OR to be able to deploy a little further back in the case of engineers trying to set up a rally point, without trying to dodge incoming HE shells.
Simple Solution:
Allow an option for players at the start of the game to automatically try to spawn into a friendly truck. If there is space available, they will spawn there rather than at the default infantry spawn points.
