Driving a tank and operating its turret at the same time should be trickey.
Keyword = simulation
Why alter it?
Keyword = option
Well seeing as how using two sticks to control each sides tracks is outdated and no longer used I don't see how that would be simulation. Also if you wanted simulation you would have to have one person controlling the turret and one person driving. Alsolso seeing as how automatic transmissions do exist, making the player shift would be no more realistic. The only thing they could do to make it more "simulation" would be more realistic driving physics, and making it in first person view.
Also since there is a lot more to the game I don't think I would want to have to unplug the racing wheel then plug in my controller if I have to get out.
Exactly....I had the bizarre experience of owning Steel Battalion on the Xbox and the enormous controller with a button and a joystick for every possible movement type and a set a pedals!!!.....if you wanted proper simulation of a Scorpion you would need something like that....
In simpler terms using two buttons for track movement is tricky, same as it is tricky using two joysticks on the Steel Battalion controller....its too awkward for an operation that needs to be simple.
The Scorpion was given a redesign along the lines of what you are suggesting in H3 by allowing a second user to operate the machine gun....but still the concept of using two buttons for track movements is for tank simulation games, not Halo CE
