Just curious;

Did anyone ever manage to actually repair a immobilized tank and get it out of the battle? Ever?

hm yeah.. but as u guys know i hate unrealistic stuff in games.

If fl- could add "implement abandon vehicle button" to the far end of his to-do list (wich i guess is quite long) i would be really happy, cause thats what one would do if your tank is immobilized far behind the front lines. Just get the hell out of there and try to join up with your forces and crew another tank, instead of sitting around in it smoking weed until someone comes by and either captures or just kills you..

Yeah, if possible, crew abandon is a great idea.  And not just to solve this issue either, but overall.

Yes, I have.

Had a Tiger immobilized on Abbeville, we moved the entire defense to cover it from the inevitable rush, then brought out 2 squads of pio's came out and repaired it from about 60% health to full. Then it went back to killing.

We won that game too.

EiR... turning CoH into FoW one step at a time  Wink

thtb, I have seen immobilized tanks successfully repaired enough to limp off the field.  It is usually not worth the effort unless it is someone's vet 3 panther.

Haha!  Yeah I think that was actually the game I was thinking of.  That was pretty fun.

I think it is a very useful tactic BUT there should be an option to just destroy your own tank. If you don't care about losing it, you should be able to scuttle it?

Then have it take like 20-40 seconds to blow after it is activated? So If they are about to die they are guarenteed to die either way but they attackers have a chance to get the exp?

Yeah. Immobilize can get fixed up pretty easily with a little luck.

Crew abandon would be good to add, definitely. Another point on the wishlist.
