Effectively the loss of a tank is no more jarring to the squad than the loss of a couple infantrymen. Proposal: tanks should respawn up until a finite number of "tank reinforcements" set to reflect a...

    Concerns about persistent stats

    Persistent stats may increase the tendency of some players to ignore team balance for the sake of improving their own "persistent score." This has two effects, one, it dilutes the value of persistent stats, making them less an accurate reflection of player skill. Two, it alters gameplay on a...
