Is it possible to make the GVs spawn closer ?? i think over 15-20% of the players find more fun in this game in GVs than planes,
Why should GVs drivers waste 30 min or more , on some maps to drive on those hills? What fun is that?
But unfortunately are few maps with hot places for GVs fights,like A144 on "Big isles", or A1 on "Baltic"
Yes TT are ok, but why not @ every base?
Don't you think more players would be happy if GVs spawn , in the same place in 1-2k range ?

I think part of the logic behind the spawn points is this...
First if GVs were allowed to spawn at the enemy base, then why not planes?
Second, part of the "reality" portion of AH is that planes and/or GVs need to navigate to their intended targets. Thus allowing for combat not directly related to defending a base.
Just as with planes, GVs can and do encounter defenses along their way. Whether that's an opponent hiding in trees, underpasses, camping at the spawn point or directly defending the intended target.
I think the distances needed to be traveled are a good compromise. Otherwise, you'd be driving for hours from your original base and camping out overnight for long campaigns. :)
Tank towns were more or less in response to a minority group wanting a place to build perk points. IMHO, they are useless and unrelated to the overall object of the game. They provide no value to winning a map and do nothing but eat up resources on all sides.

i'm not a big fun of GVs, but the GVs funs are out of bussines on most of the maps
How long does it take to fly a plane 25milles to enemy base ,and find a fun fight let's say @10k alt.? aprox.5 min.
Why should the poor gvs driver waste hours to climb hills, looking for fun? i don't think this is fair,

The goal is to make the distance in "Time" aprox the same for vehicles and planes.
