Let's talk about this, since I never seen a topic about instant critical repair.

IMO it's way too good and a game saver, you can pop your crew out and fix critical in no time and pop in again and escape, I think crews should repair tanks like regular engineers. It makes snares partly useless.

I think this ability was first for armor doctrine instead of Thompson but somehow they give it by default
I really think it should be in armor doctrine it fit thematically too after all they have assault eng with sane ability and the Thompson is called veteran crew so you would expect them to know every inch of the tank and know how to repair fast

Yeah its pretty bullshit, cost and time should be doubled, or even have it removed all together. You could argue that usf needs it more than other factions though since their tanks are weaker.

It doesn't really matter. The ability is tied to the vet of crew, and the crew unit has really low vet requirements. It vets to vet 3 almost instantly in any engagement when in vehicle, especially if it is a tank.

This. You'll reach vet 3 with a vehicle crew in no time at all.

If I have the time to dismount the crew and use Super Glue, chances are the tank was going to get away anyway, the only problem is the "feature" that let's you cancel the animation and still get the skill of.

You need to spot the sarcasm more often :snfPeter:

And I believe the you can't decrew the pershing so you can't get two at the same time :bananadance:

double increase ammo price, make it vet3 (better than current vet1 :P ), triple increase the time of action itself and now should be not fair but at least it will cost something for the ammo you spend on a mine or a snare

Increasing vet requirements for crew is near meaningless since most crews will be vet 3 in a matter of 1 or 2 shots, or after 1 engagement. The only thing this will punish is light vehicle play, which relies on these abilities to get out of trouble quickly.

The ability is not fair, and should take longer, possibly an increased cost to use. Ultimately this is why vehicle crews really don't work well and should never have been added. It creates a weird discrepancy in the way vehicles operate.

Times have changed.
It was kinda all right when all USF had shitty Jackons and Shermans.

Now with E8, Pershing, Calliope and Sherman buff (better pen than long barrel Pz4 lul) in deck, it could be changed to something else. Maybe ability to plant mines by vehicle crew? Idk, but currently it's not needed anymore.

maybe nothing after all the crew is already free

the ability should be 60 munition at the least. 15 mu is too cheap considering the faust alone cost 25 muntion.

Re: Original Post

hahahha yeah sure we'll get rid critical repair if you get rid of Panthers reversing at 60km/h.

Also it is risk/reward decrewing your vehicle in combat incase axis haven't noticed.

If you haven't found any topics, it's because people may refer to it as superglue. One of many flaw designs still in the game.
