If TD-110 Bastion tank was added
I bet you when they add this tank this will be the complains that we will receive from it:

-the controls (people will say it needs to drive like a car than a real tank since controlling it like a tank is harder for them)
-2 to 3 people tank (people will say that only 1 person should be able to shoot and drive it)
- the tank turret rotation (people will complain that you can't rotate the turret 360 degrees)

If my prediction are right all those complains are just skill issues since 1) it's a tank not a car, 2) it's a tank it needs more than one person, 3) it's a tank 'destroyer' it doesn't have a fully rotation turret.

I have a guide I posted for tips on how to drive in Helldivers 2. Right now it only covers the FRV as it's the only car in HD2, but if and when they add this, I'll see about figuring it out and adding it to help people learn better.

Bastion was peak co-op gameplay in Helldivers, most people just amused it was bad. With a good gunner and driver with rep gun support it was borderline OP vs bugs or bots only sucked vs Illuminates due to the shield walls.

Personally I think a two maned Tank is perfect.

The LRV will be the full squad platform for fast efficient strikes and reconnaissance

Mechs are single manned heavy armoured walkers - designed to punch into fortified positions and support the other members of the fire team

The Tank would be a nice in between, whilst fulfilling a unique role. It is the slow, heavy armour perfect for tackling larger enemies of Democracy. It requires two divers to operate, but the other two divers are free to remain mobile to drop stratagems when needed.

APC will come first, so we'll see how people handle that.

That be cool to, and possibly if they want to aid a new dimension to the game a light helicopter. Nothing big, more like a buzzard. But something which can zip around and strike targets of opportunity.

The bastion was the easy mod for the game. It had to have limitations, when it could:

- Withstand massive amounts of damage for a long time, and gain complete invulnerability while under REP's beam.

- Oneshot 35 heavy enemies at a rate of 30 per minute and run over any amount of light enemies.

- Be called in 16 (sixteen) copies without cooldowns per match.

Cross over with Command & Conquer and a Mammoth tank, please. I mean, either that or EA could just stop defiling the corpse of C&C. Not that the second half has anything to do with HD2, of course...

So long as it comes with a horn that just shouts C&C3 mammoth tank lines.

Damn, now i want to play it again. Such a good game. Pity that they never, ever, did C&C 4. Nope. Nada.

Tank controls are actually VASTLY superior to car controls in ALL games. As tanks are inherently easier to drive and can rotate in place, it's basically driving for idiots. So noone is going to complain there.

Tank actually needs to be 4 players, not 1 or 2. Should require a MINIMUM of 2 players, one to drive one to shoot the main gun. But then two extra slots to man separate MGs.

It does actually need to be changed to a full 360 degree turret. Tank destroyers are an ancient and obsolete concept from WW2. They don't exist anymore for good reason. So it just needs to have a full propper turret now. It can be renamed of course.

3) Wolverine and Slugger IRL had full rotation turrets and were tank destroyers.

"Are you sure about that?" (c)
There will be plenty of those, who will complain, I'm assure you.

Imho, besides vehicles and mechs they need to add ability to repair and ressuply it.

Well the Pelican has to be able to deliver the tank so I assume it sacrificed turret traversing systems for heavy armor thus the reason why it's a Tank destroyer with limited turret traverse (Also for game balance, they put some hindrance on the tank to make driver and gunner to cooperate).
