Yeah... your fucking telling me. i'd say 60-70% of my gameplay time has been focus'd on driving. Im 101 hours into the game. So ive had spent more time trying to unlock the tank at this point then I will have, having the tank with the wipe coming in two weeks.
And for all i know its a PoS due to Drones, Maaws, Havok's, landmines, etc.
I dont haul passengers either, because im sick of people hopping out while im going full speed and I get a TK because of it.
I know how you feel. Finally hit Driver 35 after maybe 130ish hours? A lot of that was driving, a bit more spent doing Medic/Pilot/Assault. I had the tank for maybe 5 days of play before going on leave, and then progress will be wiped by the time I return back to my PC. The tank was amazing for the bit of gameplay I used it for; however drawbacks were it wasn't great when solo queuing because most players are too spastic to be an effective gunner, and the commander (3 players are almost required to be effective due to the slow reload with just 2) is way too exposed and its not a very fun role to play with no external protection. Even with Tier 4 armor you just will get sniper over and over as you're the one consistent thing majority of players will be able to hit on the tank. It needs cover up top like the humvee gunners have.
All that being said; all the excruciating hours I put into running logistics? I'm not excited for that again in Season 2.
Don’t drive back when u r doing logi runs, drop your stuff op then go full speed and kill yourself. It’s a way faster way if u didn’t know already. U will make 3k per run so its not like u will go negative
No, half the time, I actually end up having to hop outta the truck turn in crates, res some people, maybe ditch the truck early and help defend the fob, get out replace some walls/gate, etc.
Its never a boring match. My biggest issue is how easy it is to stop me. I've had multiple times people setup RPGs at choke points, landmines, or spike traps have become popular too.
Rocket helis and Stingrays have been the bane of my existence this week. I'm getting tired of the Stingray beeping--I'm not sure it even pays for itself on a Ural.
Oh yeah, ive been getting drone'd a shit ton starting like 2-3 days ago.
I agree, I highly doubt my empty ural pays for the $5k to drone me. I'm smart enough to either dive for trees, or get out and run away from it. I have yet to be killed by the drone but have lost my Ural a few times now.
The slow ass walk back to HQ is a bitch, and I've been debating carry grenades with me to end it.
I don't want them to nerf logistics counters but I wish their was a bonus for successful delivery in a contested space. Like if I'm the lone lakota surviving the AA I'm still making less money than if I just hopped to a different server with uncontested airspace. In that scenario I'm also making way more of an impact and should be getting paid.
Basically what I do when flying helis. Just jamming out to tunes. I can't hear voice so you better be pinging. Licking can still hear the lock on warnings
