How about introducing gears for vehicles. If you look at military videos oftentimes you see apcs or humvees moving at man speed along with a squad. You see that less in PR, partly because its too much of a chore to do the stop go with the rest of the squad.
So since vehicles dont have a gas pedal in bf how about introducing gears to PR, I was thinking of 3 gears/settings 1 for walking speed 1 for sprinting speed and one for regular speed with regular being default. Gears could be switched with the Q button.
On Ramiel the humvee or even striker would have an easier time moving alongside a squad, just imagine a stryker moving down an alley at man speed shooting on the move (and a good chance of hitting) with a squad in its back.

I know the suggestions forum is closed but since it wasnt related to 0.8 in specific I hope I wont get grilled for it

EDIT: Ok I ran a search for it and none of the 3 pages of search results hinted on the subject at hand, just ran am advanced search to go only through the titels and it turns out it has been suggested before.
For future reference, standard search isnt any good X.x

Been suggested b4.. and actually the DEV have tried it (2 gear system).. i dont think it worked. Or it may still be WIP.

yeah i think its a WIP gear 1 being max walk/jog speed of infantry and when you hold shift it goes to gear 2 thats normal speed for the vehicles.

The suggestions forum has been locked with reference to 0.8 anyway good luck to the devs with their wip.

Quite right sir.

And this has come up before.

If you have suggestions to make, please save them until the appropriate forum is up and running and after you have made the relevent searches in said forum.

Thank you for your cooperation.
