Homefront Guide

>Vehicles

You have the ability to select vehicles while playing any match. Earn enough BP to spawn directly inside a vehicle. You must be dead in order to spawn inside of a vehicle after the class selection menu. It seems only two vehicles from the same category, and on the same team, can be on the map at a time.

Teammates have the ability to jump inside vehicles, and you can exit any time you like. Players can also spawn directly inside a teammate’s Humvee or Tank from the spawn menu. If you exit, a teammate or enemy can take your vehicle. Just like infantry, vehicles have special abilities. You must rank up to a certain level to unlock the ability options for each vehicle. The vehicle names may change, depending on the faction you are assigned to.

All vehicles can use the sprint function to move faster for a few seconds. All vehicles can also use the “missile defeat” function. Missile Defeat allows your vehicles to dodge any incoming enemy missiles/rockets. Bullets can harm all vehicles, with the exception of tanks.
