The drive of the T1B controls the concussion missile pod.  The passenger controls the Twin Blasters.

Are the twin blasters anti-infantry or AA?

just being a driver or gunner would be much easier. then i could just have an outside view on all the time.

Who says there'll still be an outside view tongue ?

hope there is. its impossible to see in some situations and i would tire of it very quickly. Not so much of a problem in space but on the ground in an at-st you need to be able to see in 3rd person.

I guess its that way to make operating vehicle's easier with small amounts of people.

The AT-ST will have the nose view  enabled in 1.2 as well (view without cockpit) as I know that annoyed a lot of people.  Third person control will still be allowed as well, Safe-Keeper is just messing with you guys wink

You don't think an AT ST with a nose view might make it a little unbalanced? Its pretty powerfull at the moment even with the restricted view

Indeed, I'm not sure about adding a nose view to the AT-ST myself.

Seeing that AT-ST Pilots have a complete 360 degree view of the outside world and don't rely on a tiny little hatch lorewise, I thought you of all people would agree tongue

It has been play tested though and does not negatively impact balance and makes the ATST actually usable, right now 90% of the time it is left behind and unused because no one can see and shoot at the same time in the thing.
