Usefull idea for GV's
« on: August 02, 2009, 09:49:11 AM »
I've run across the situation on numerous occasions where your enemy is behind some large obsticle or at least your vision of him is blocked by it.  You really don't want to stick your nose out from behind this obsticle becouse you know he already has it ranged in and will pretty much get the first shot automatically.  Wouldn't it be nice to be able to get out of your tank and take a look to get a better perspective of the situation before exposing the vehicle.  Obviously this exposes you to death as well but a single person is far less likely noticed then a tank.  This was frequently done in real life, as to not risk an entire tank and crew to take a look around the corner per se.  Probably never happen but just a thought.

It's smart tactically but don't expect to see it in game.

Not just be able to get out of your tank. You should have weapons like magnetic mines, and flares to call in airstrikes.
