In planetside 1 you could hack vechicles. It was fun. Therefore in planetside 2 you should be able to hack vechicles. HOWEVER, you SHOULD ONLY be able hack empty vechicles, and EVEN THEN there cannot be anyone in the range of 10 metres away.SO YOU CAN'T HACK SUNDIES WITH PEOPLE SPAWNING around them. Oh, and the drivers vechicle hp bar starts flashing really bright and stuff. NOT OVERPOWERED PLZ.
No idea why they removed this feature. It was stupid fun. It does seem Infils are way too easy to see in PS2; I could move slow and get past enemy lines without issue in PS1, but it seems I'm easily spotted and killed from 30m now. They would have to fix that first IMHO.
they said the reason was so you couldn't take vehicles with certs you don't own but that was back in beta days. I never understood why they didn't just make it so when you hack a vehicle its disrupted for 5-10 seconds and ejected the occupants, I think this would make cloakers much more useful on the battlefield.
