Tanks | Return the HUD of Direction

[Dinart]

it is impossible to control the tanks without knowing the direction it is possible to return the HUD from the position of the tank to know if we are going forward or sideways.

When you are in battle with other tanks, it is impossible to get out of the tank to know if the tank is facing the enemy tank.

Furthermore, it is impossible to drive the tank, especially through ruins, without knowing what the front of the tank is.

Exactly, in “lone fighter” mode the tank’s compass has been removed.

It becomes difficult to orient and steer the tank and even to move through the streets and forests.

You should at least return the compass to indicate the correct position of the tank.

I’m confused. Are we talking about the turret/chasis orientation icon in the lower left? Because that’s never been gone.

The crew’s view on the tank

Comander

Gunner

Pilot

You have to climb on the outside view of the tank to be able to leave it facing forward and drive on the road

In battle it is practically impossible since you have to drive, shoot, and get out of the tank in order to line up in front of it.

At least let the dev’s return the tank’s compass, many complaining about this modification

Hardcore Lone Fighter and Tanks

So hardcore lone fighter is actually kinda good imo but when you use a tank you lose the ability to easily determine which way the turret is pointed relative to the hull and the status of your crew. Both of these are critical things to know in a tank and should be easily determined without much effort. I wouldn’t mind just bringing back the tank model indicator in the lower left of the screen and the old squad status indicator as well. The lack of hitmarkers and other things in the game makes h…

I made a thread about exactly this a while ago but plenty people just don’t understand it probably because they don’t play tanks and have no actual understanding of tanking in general regardless. I would play lone fighter on occasion maybe if they would fix this to the way it should be.

[Dinart]

I am in full agreement. It’s hard to drive and shoot a tank that you don’t know where the front of the tank is.

Even in the driver’s position it is impossible to know whether the gun turret is facing the side or the front of the tank.

This small change, makes many lone fighter players not play with a tank

I wish the devs would put the indicator back at least to be able to locate and move around with the tank.

Since most maps have a lot of obstacles on the terrain
