Tank Camouflage

[Carry on Camping]

What do you think about having the ability to add camouflage to armour units in the game?

I think having the ability to choose paint schemes, foliage and netting etc would be a great addition. It would be great for tank commanders to choose depending on the map they were playing on eg. FOY - snow camo, Hurtgen - woodland camo

This could be added as a level up upgrade like the clothing and helmets for infantry.

This might upset the infantry fans here though.

Any opinions?

Honestly, I'd prefer that camouflage and uniforms were map and date appropriate, with cosmetic unlocks being limited to little extras that don't matter so much: veteran faces, cigarette packs, names/graphics for tanks you are currently crew serving.

If netting and other gubbins is added, it should have a role complimentary deployment method and a cost to use plus limitations/cooldowns.

The problem with setting up things like netting is that they should be destroyed as soon as the tank starts moving any sort of distance. Setting up good camo for a tank thats going to be in ambush takes 20 - 40 minutes depending on the terrain - not really something that would make sense with the speed that the game plays at.

^^^ also this ^^^ - sorry, I think we were typing around the same time.

Not sure what you mean by getting destroyed? Foliage/ netting might fall off in a real life scenario but this is a game?

What you say would never affect painted camouflage anyway either way.

+1 but it shouldn't take precedent over sound and animation overhauls which are sorely needed and have yet to be teased.

Tank camo unfortunately is effective at ranged far longer than engagement distances on this game. It would be nice to have some but you would still be spotted.

Some of them are already done, probably coming in the future and yeah, it would be awesome.

That'd be cool, but first they should fix every aspect of canks. Because it is all broken and almost unplayable

A developer mentioned that tank camouflage is not a priority but something that’d be cool to have. Actually one of devs in a recent AMA said something a long the lines of “If I went and asked our artist (Danny?) about if he could make some tank camouflages, he’d probably say that he’s already made 6 different ones for fun or in his off time.”

So currently it isn’t confirmed if we’re gonna get them. Mostly because they aren’t a priority and there’s way more important things right now.

I personally think we will see them in the future. Like adding brush and branches on your Tiger. But not for a while.
