Brad, it seems you are having a hard time understanding what I and hos are trying to tell you.
No, I understand your arguments. I just don't think they are justified or strong enough.
Let me be very clear about this: MOST of us are lone tankers and we DO NOT want the game changed.
I agree with the first part. Most people play lone-tanking more often than not. That's because it's convenient and there is no real incentive to TT. I disagree about the not wanting change, as you'll see from the multiple polls up now. The majority supports changes.
You want the majority of ROOST players to "learning to deal with the change in gameplay"??
Absolutely. I want people to learn how to team tank, to operate with a crew. Is that too much to ask? Is that draconian of me? Ask other people what they think. You and hos seem to be the only ones trying to provide arguments here, and hos' are barely legit arguments to boot.
You say that LTing "detracts from the realism". Would you prefer 100% realism at the cost of killing this game?
Oh my sweet merciful god. Drop that argument, I've addressed it umpteen times already. I DON'T WANT 100% REALISM because it's NOT POSSIBLE and NOT FEASIBLE IN A GAME. I want the realistic experience of
operating a tank with other crewmates. I don't want to see a loader or radio-operater position because those don't translate well into the game.
Most of us think the game is fine as is
Polls suggest otherwise.
As I have said before. Most LTs are good people and they do not deserve this animosity.
Fine, sure. I'm not displaying any animosity towards LTers, I'm simply trying to change things so that TTing is more prevalent. I don't care if you think there's some huge bias or anti-LTing stereotype floating around, because it has nothing to do with the arguments I'm making.
Solo tanker DO DO TEAMWORK with each other sot he teamwork argument does not hold water.
Yes, they use teamwork. But they lack the inter-crew teamwork that I want to see more of. I have
never argued that LTing is the absence of all teamwork, it is simply the absence of crewmate teamwork which I believe is extremely important.
