I know how to drive a tank, and I do it well. What annoys me is overzealous commanders who don't understand amoured combat, thinking that it's all about running full speed until you spot something, stopping, and firing until either the target dies or you die or think that manning the commander's position simply means firing the main gun and not "commanding" the tank. These commanders have no consideration for crucial elements such as cover, hull down, turret down, angling, "shoot and scoot". etc or even working with other tanks in the platoon. I live by the rule that the commander commands the tank and I will follow his direction to the "T", but I have sat in many driver's seats waiting....waiting...for direction....then when I do, it's something like, "Are you going to move you idiot ?". That's when I bail out and go searching for a commander who has a clue. I enjoy driving under a commander who commands. It would be a REAL bonus if the local / veh chat worked properly to facilitate good communications between the crew. This would probably make all the difference in the world as guys are a little reluctant, and with good reason, to spam the entire voip for the sake of their one tank.
So...there are commanders and drivers out there, the trick is to get them hooked up together and communicating. In the meantime, we have to put up with the "less than stellar" drivers and commanders.
