Post subject:  Lowering buggy RP cost

New vehicle the Land buggy or Dune buggy or "Fast transportation vehicle" is too expensive (edit: in my opinion, and i shall list the reasons why i think this way below [more polite this way you see xaxaxa ))))))))] )

Image vs Image
Images taken from the Official wiki

Reasons why

Cost
Humvee-400rp
Buggy-350rp

Passenger seating and armament
Humvee- 3 safe seats + 0 rumble seats+ 1 protected driver + 1 50 cal murican machinegun mounted on top with bullet shield
Buggy- 0 safe seats + 1 rumble seats + 1 unprotected driver + 1 50 cal murican machinegun with no bullet shield (unless you count driver and passenger as bullet shield)

Speed and acceleration
Humvee- Losers especially on snow maps
Buggy- Winners until they die/crash because of desync also handing is tricky

Health
Humvee- 15% health left after taking a shaped rocket from an LAW (MURICAN ROCKET LAUNCHER)
Buggy- 58% health left after a single grenade

New suggested cost for the buggy: 250 rp


who else feels like new buggy is just there to travel across maps like rattlesnake crescent for 50 rp cheaper and then ditch it as soon as you enter combat? Sure the seat the passenger can shoot out of is amusing (i was there using the m240 machine-gun while someone else was driving) and its pretty fast but it can spin out of control easily and gets damaged significantly by grenades. It can be used as a mg platform (and arguably more effectively with the rumble seat providing extra firepower) but the humvee can do while also providing transport for a squad and a medic. ive frequently used the humvee as a support vehicle while unloading the passengers whenever I see a downed team-mate. The same is impossible to do with the buggy but it performs another function and does it well.

I love the look of the buggy and would like to see more called in so they can run
Spoiler:
teammates
bad guys over. So please devs consider lowering the cost?

Yep, buggies are a bit useless and less durable than humvees, so they should cost cheaper.
200 RP is a fair price imo.

You guys have to keep in mind that the stuff added should make sense in the campaign as this is still the main focus. For 200 RP I could see that those would be spammed like crazy, just as a faster transport option, which I want to avoid.
200 RP is way too low, I really don't see me make that change. For now I could see myself lowering the cost to 300 but not less.

If OP would have chosen the option of 50RP, I am pretty sure some people would have chosen this option as well, the cheaper the better ;)

i voted 250. 300 also is good for me. is right anyway.

but only 50 rp difference from humvee no, 100 rp difference has more sense.

400 humvee 300 buggy is nice.
