I say remove crewmans weapons.
Then remove the medics rifle aswell, cos you know, if you sneaking up while he is healing someone and he pulls his rifle out and kills you, its just cheap.
etc...
I really haven´t seen this being a big deal, its not even that they can parachute onto you or something. Yeah, the mp5 rox close up, but;
1) Why are you there, you can hear an apc miles away?
2) Why are you there alone?
It seriously has to be a ninja crewman to jump out , get his bearings and shoot you before you can shoot him, especially with other people present...
I can´t see how it is that unrealistic either, if you have to bail from your APC and there is some guy hiding near you you shoot him, in real life, I expect the crewman wouldn´t have this chance, because he would get shot, but thats what your role is...
only occurs when they are using BTR-60/BRDM-2
Might be because, with all due respect, the cannons they have are kind of **** vs other APC cannons that have heat shells etc.
