Tanks!
1.No distance icons on them, only dusttrail (dusttrail=Red or green icon at 3k marking friend or foe).
2.A rangefinding device connected to maingun, instead of crosshair.
3.Make it nearly impossible to hit with a moving tank. An "automatic" gearbox and the throttle, spacebar, rudder setup would make it easy for the "gunner" to control the tank. Halt for to shoot, take of, halt to shoot, etc, etc
4.Slow down reload time on maingun. Stresses the battle. Sweat should be pouring from the "tanker" and make him move, not to be a sitting duck. "GO!GO!GO!GO!GO! AP,UP! HALT!
FIRE! GO!GO!GO!"
5.Turrett taking of like a rocket, before tank explodes.
6.Bailing from tank, and runing from it at least 500 yards before "ditch". (Heheheh getting some use for that bowMG!)
7.Tank to be harder against "strafers" and m16, softer against AP ammo. It should take a tank or a bomb to get a tank to blow up. Even if its not "accurate" it would make the use of tanks more dangerouse. Now you take of and nearly any plane can take you out, even if it takes a while.
8.No "f3" view, a tank has a lot of blind spots caped. All fieldview from tankcommanders seat, trough the periscope/Slits
9.Provision for smoke/flames, both for a burnin tank and for to use smoke as cover.
WOW HTC, Maybe you beat the WWII and put em out of buisness before they even get their beta out! Poor, guys.
(By the way, is there anyway to buy stock in HTC?)
Anyway, just sugestions, to make things better, even if they are good.
AH Really rocks now!
Last thing, pretty cool if a c47 could drop servicecrew/ammo and fuel for tanks and they could pick it up! (service crew to fix blown up Tracks, engines, guns, etc, etc.)

"OH, OGD! Help me now to punish the Rooks and Bishops that are after my Body and want to shoot it full of both 7.7, cal"50 and 20mm! Please preserve the nice paintjob on my 205, keep my wep always goin and load my guns with Fresh ammunition, the fuelgaugemeter in the middle, May my fellow Knights call 6 and cover my weak spots in times during T&B, May the infideling Hawg go away forever from AH! (and if not, make it a undermodeled Lawndart!)". <Right Airlon, Left Elevator, Engine and Rudder.>
