Tanker stuck in tanks

[Gilhusen]

Seeing as you can't bail out

what happends if your detracked (even worse if your ina stug) or the tank is rendered useless?

do the tankers just sit there and wait to die witch could take awhile as people may find out its easyer to disable it rather than destroy it.

So mabye we could let the tankers kill them selfs in the tank or even blow it up?

Then you press the scuttle button, and respawn in a new tank.

I still think being stuck in the tank is the worst thing Tripwire could do.. I still do not understand what eejit came up with that bloody idea. It is ridiculous...

But yeah there is always just writing 'Suicide' in console.

There already a lot of discussions about that non-bailing tankers feature around here, including posts by the devs o nthat subject. And if u still don't understand why they chose that way more than the other

Its a change that's hard to digest, but it is what it is.
The main purpose of this is so that you become a tank, you die as a tanker. Plus so people can't hop out right before they die.
But hey, we'll just have to learn how to handle and work our ways with it. Same thing working with on how to shoot and such.

Its an innovation that's hard to digest, but it is what it is.

Not being able to bail out of your tank is an innovation? Clearly you haven't play many games with tanks in them.

I'm a man with little words, didn't know what else to call it, any suggestions?
EDIT: Wait, change that's a good word.

DH devs solved the problem by giving much more points for destroying the tank, than for killing that "stuck in the middle of nowhere" crewmember who managed to escape.
Well, it works.
And in RO since crew are either AI or human, if player exists the tank, it can remain idle till he comes back or dies. If he dies, he just takes control of another crewmember inside the tank after some "cooldown" like 20s. And you could always lose XP and points when your idle tank gets destroyed.

But yeah, it's already been discussed 1000000 times and is not going to change.

Presuming that grobut's answer (the much discussed official answer) doesn't satisfy can i just check with the naysayers -
so your tank gets disabled and/or rendered useless and you want to bail out of the tank and.........do what?

When does the hurting stop?
