Is it at all possible to reload your vehicle?

If so, how?

Nope, you can't reload a vehicle.

that sux.

YO! YOOHOO! PROGRAMMERS! OVER HERE!

That's something to add.  I don't know how many times I've emptied my payload and needed to reload it. It would especially be good if you could land at a different base than the one you took off from to reload.

Food for thought.

I just thought of something.

There could have been some confusion around my use of "vehicle".

I meant any vehicle, bombers, fighters, ground, and water vehicles.

Just clarifying.

I believe you can reload and refuel by landing and taxiing to the refuel-rearm pads at each base just off the runway...

The only problem with that idea is it takes so dang long to get where you're going (if you're attacking a remote base), who the heck wants to drive ALL THE WAY BACK to their VH to reload and then drive ALL THE WAY BACK to their target??!!  Only if you're doing point base defense does this make any kind of sense.  But I agree, it should be available and let the user make the choice.  Don't know HOW many times I've run outta ammo and had to "ditch".  If you can do it in a plane, you should be able to do it in a GV.

Imagine an ostie or m16 otr, firing away forever.

That's the problem according to HTC.

I agree with their call.
