Tank Support Zones

You dont have to advance forward to be surprised by enemy soldiers even behind your own lines… also what @VoyoMayPL says

Infantry won’t keep up with tank going at full speed, I’ve checked. So no worries here.

This bonus would be exp modifier, so you have to do sth to get those points. So if there is tank on the end of a map sniping everybody, it won’t be beneficial to support it as you won’t earn any points yourself so you won’t get extra points from said modifier.

What do you think the Blitzkrieg was?

Depends on what tank. Churchill, Pz 38(t) etc… move at the speed of infantry. You’re looking at breakthrough tanks like early war Pz. 3 which had dedicated infantry support which doesn’t make sense here where neither side is using the tanks in a breakthrough role.

That is using tanks in a completely different role from that used in enlisted.

90% of fighting in this game takes place in city / urban environment. Show me one example of tank in a city with no infantry support that managed to survive.

Also, why shouldn’t we be rewarded for teamplay? We get exp for building ammo boxes but we don’t get exp for saving ass of ours teammates?

In RL tankers were smart enough to know their roll especially in urban combat. You stay behind the infantry and you support them. You dont take the lead and charge the objective because that will get you killed.

If tankers in enlisted will take this approach they will not need infantry squads close by protecting them.

From my perspective it’s like saying:
Don’t give points for capturing objectives. If players want to win they will capture them anyway.

Tanks can’t cap objectives … In fact this thread was originally started to talk about tanks receiving experience by supporting infantry …

Some how the thread got hijacked …

I’m not talking about tank caping points. I’m talking about rewarding players for team play.

Perhaps start another thread with your idea and let this one stand on it’s own …

I already made post about exp bonus for supporting tanks.

With all respect, It’s bad form to present your idea in another thread … That’s why it’s called Hijacking.

Bump your own thread if you want more discussion on that topic … I might even comment on your idea there

It wasn’t my goal. Discusion went a bit out of control :stuck_out_tongue:

Indeed, best take the discussion of other suggestions to those respective suggestions. Thanks

Because your reward for being in a tank is being in a tank. You are literally an armored pillbox with Machine guns and a cannon. You don’t need to give bonus XP for having infantry support you. Your teams bonus for keeping you alive if you’re a good tanker is keeping you alive.

Yes there were a couple of occasions when I got too aggressive in my tank and got out in front of the infantry heading to an objective. When I rolled up on the objective I was met with a hail of det packs which immobilized me and eventually knocked me out.

I hear a lot of people saying det packs wont kill a a Puma and sometimes one pack wont do it but it will certainly immobilize it and it’s only a matter of time after that

So you don’t want to reward tanks for supporting infantry nor reward infantry for supporting tanks.
Am I right?

A suggestion that’s good and there’s not a giant flame war in the comments? Impossible!
take a heart
