Your poll confuses and infuriates me!

Damn, Pyryle. Very nice setup you have there.
I would post a picture of my area buts it's shit except for a nice monitor, keyboard and mouse. Maybe when I decide to throw monies at it I will.

pretty cool. Maybe this means we can have useable carry-alls in reborn now too!
That would be amazing.

Yes. It's satisfying as it is to sink those pesky LSTs with my V2 rockets, but if they're also carrying vehicles then they would be my favourite target.

Didn't holding spacebar used to have an effect on vehicles back in .9935? It causes infantry to walk but does that have any analogue with vehicles?
It causes vehicles to move slower but not by much.

I've been sitting on some of these clips for a couple of weeks now. I only now decided to stop being lazy and edit them.

I consistently see large updates (>1GB) for all sorts of games, at least on Xbox One.
As do I. It's actually gotten to the point where I get pissed when I need to update games because it's way more frequent than the Xbox 360 was.

I remember a while back there was a call for handbrake functionality for these units, which never got implemented. It would be cool if your vehicle's wheels would lock as long as Q was held or something.
I'm against full deploy functionality for these units because I feel that ti takes away from their manoeuvrability.
Again, deploying is an option. You don't have to do it if you don't want you. This would just be an option for those with high ping or those on uneven terrain who have difficulty lining up their shot.

My vote stands for the option against a Q deploy button. I don't see a need for it.
My stated reasons are a legitimate need for it. It may not be an issue for you but it's a serious issue for me, and the fact that its use is optional should mean that no one is against it because I don't believe it would be hard to implement, though I'm no W3D expert.
Maybe the poll was a mistake because, again, people shouldn't be against additional options.

When the pivot change got implemented, I just couldn't hit anything like I used to. I stopped buying artillery altogether until the later patch that reverted it. It may improve your aim, but in my case it threw me off entirely.
I mean if you can deploy with Q I likely just won't press the Q button as suggested and stay mobile.
Then you should've voted Yea because the poll was for deploying and not pivoting.

Any particular reason for being against the pivot? You only need to aim it like pretty much every other weapon in the game but this one is limited to a certain distance left or right. I try to avoid using Artillery now because it takes too long for me to line up my shot on the defensive structure. Pressing A or D just moves it too much and I usually have to reverse, drive forward and turn to get it on target. By this time, after missing my first shot or two, the enemy is already aware of my presence and I've lost my advantage. That's just when the surface is flat, it's even more difficult if I'm on uneven terrain (hello, CanyonRiver's stream) or on the side of a hill.
And I'm confused, you said 'voting against deployed artillery units' but then said you can get behind it. Are you against having to deploy in order to fire (something I never suggested) or deploying in general?

Shame that doing this would completely remove the option of ramming these vehicles to throw off their aim. That's not something I'm about to deny this feature over though. True but from what I've seen over the past couple of months playing (more than I'd like to admit) I've hardly seen someone ram these vehicles. That's just from my experience though, as most have just been shooting.
Not possible, pivot has to be on either both modes or no mode, unless the gun has absolutely no articulation at all in one mode (see: undeployed Nod artillery which is always facing straight forward no matter where you're looking and no matter where you pointed it when previously deployed) which would be pretty damn useless and force the arty to deploy for any form of combat that isn't "hit unit that's right in front of me". Darn. Then how about just returning the pivot? Whenever I bring it up in-game someone always agree with me and I've never seen anyone against it. It's just so annoying to hit a Flame Tower when you're on a small uneven surface because when you aim up the reticle moves away from where you aimed previously.

I'm sure others are sick and tired of their Artillery and V2 vehicles slightly moving when trying to line up a shot. You could try exiting and entering the vehicle but on some terrain this just doesn't work. I don't know if it is the game or my 180 ping but it's very annoying. My suggestion is the option to press Q to 'deploy' the vehicle. I use quotations because there would be no animations for this, it's not really deploying but the vehicle would simply stop moving completely, like the Nod Artillery from Reborn. This would save so much time when preparing to attack enemy defences and buildings.
Speaking of the Nod Artillery, it would be awesome if when the Artillery is deployed we get the previously removed slight pivot to the left and right back. This was extremely helpful for me when hitting defences. For those who don't like the pivot then they just don't deploy and use the vehicle like it is now.
I'll throw a poll up so people can vote if they would like this or not, although I don't see why not as those who are against can simply never press Q while in these vehicles.

Wow, can't believe those awesome images were uploaded there around 8 years ago. Time sure does fly.

Just a random thought but would it be possible to make it so the wrench can only repair empty vehicles? This way the Mutant Hijacker can't repair friendly vehicles who are engaging GDI.

Does anybody here like aiming with joysticks?
Sure, but it depends on the game. Battlefield? No. Call of Duty? Yes.
Hypothetically, if the game were on consoles, how would vehicle cameras work? Lock the camera to the turret?

Awesome! Thanks for the update.

Have you tried using the Soviet tunnel behind the War Factory to hop over to the Allies side, go up the hill, and shoot down at the Arties from above? Whenever I am Soviet and we get assaulted like above it's what I do and it works most of the time. Your idea is not bad, I'm just saying.
Also, a good way to deal with the arty is to park a V2 on the left side of the Refinery, next to the door. This is something I also do to get them. Of course it helps if the FT is alive to stop tanks and APCs from coming after you.

If only they used a good TSR shot. People might see it as some very early Renegade mod and not even bother clicking.

That's awesome! Hopefully this will bring in new players.

Nice tutorial, I'm sure it will be useful for those who do this sort of stuff.

Yeah, but I'm a Tiberian Sun fanboy so the thought of TSR possibly having it is exciting.
