the uav trailer is big enough for someone to fit inside. i think commanders should be able to 'use' the uav trailer and occupy it.

on some maps, the commander doesn't have a ready place to hide from enemy artillery. [mec on sharqi]
this would always give the commander a place to go, if better protection isn't available.

it's a friggin trailer, after all, and you can see control consoles and shit inside.

I think they should of done this: where if you wanted to get in commander view to like use uav, artillery, and drop supplies for troops to use, then you would of have to get in the uav trailer.
The irony of guns, is that they can save lives.

that's some intelligent discussion right there

as for getting blown up, that's the price you pay for having guaranteed protection from enemy artillery. better pay close attention to your scan and get out when you notice enemies near. no mounted guns, no changes at all other than being able to get inside.

it's not about MAKING commanders have to go inside if they want to use com view. commanders might have to be mobile if the situation calls for it. there are no other gameplay changes associated with this idea. it's purely about guaranteeing commanders a place to seek cover regardless of map. the protection is limited but on most maps you have better places to hide anyway.

I know but I just thought it would be realistic.

Not a bad idea being able to only use the stuff when inside... eliminates a mobil commander tho. and i personally think that it wouldnt be good cover for arty.  if they did allow ppl in it they would have to give it a certain amount of hitpoints... direct hit from arty....gone. just my thoughts

it already has a certain amount of hitpoints. arty is not strong enough to kill a uav trailer.
