K-Drive: Pursuit Mode and Gunner Mode Suggestion

[LilacCross]

This idea was inspired by the Batman Arkham Knight Batmobile's Pursuit Mode and Tank Mode. Allow Archwing Gun to be equipped when you are on your K-Drive. While on the K-Drive, pressing the Item Wheel button summons your Archwing Gun. Tricks/Meneuvers that use the ADS and Shoot button are disabled so that you can use those button to Shoot and ADS. Summoning the Archwing Gun while on a K-Drive will switch us to "Gunner mode". Gunner Mode will fill in the niche that K-Drive needs inorder to compete with SkyWing in open world and could open up a lot of ideas for content.

Example: The 3rd Orb Mother fight. The battle could take place on, Land, Air, and Water. Tenno on the land could fight mobs and disable shield gen. Those on K-Drive Gunner Mode can surf the water and aim for weakpoints/other objectives. SkyWing players can fly around hitting different area of the Orb Mother and dropping mines to disable/hinder it.

Archgun-mode on k-drive. Short enough?^^

Honestly, I think it's time DE gave up on the silly "Tony Hawk's Pro Warframe" aspect of K-Drives. I'm with the OP - let us shoot our guns from them, maybe even our Archguns. Let us drive them on ground missions. Don't throw us off the board on impact. K-Drives are never going to compete with Archwings in open-world maps, but they could still be useful and they can still compete with Archwings on maps where Archwings can't be used. Using my K-Drive on those large open-air tiles on Venus or even to zoom around Jupiter would be nice.

Oh, and finally - either get rid of K-Drive progression (build them at Rank 30) or at the very least let us gain XP for them by simply riding them - no tricks required.

Because I know there are still people who like the idea of snowboard tricks, though, maybe leave the old system in and add it as a toggle option per K-Drive in the Arsenal. Either that, or give them a "Stance" slot which removes the tricks, adds weapon use and adds some capacity. That way, people who want Trick K-Drives can just not equip a stance. Or hell - go all out and create "Combat" stance and "Trick" stances for them.

I like the idea, just a button that toggles between tactical and fun.  We don't need stances or anything complicated, just a toggle.  

Fun is exactly what we have.

Tactical allows weapons and disables tricks.  

 

Melee on hoverboard could have advantages over archwing.
