dunno what to tell you man, i've not lost a tank to infantry since the AV nerf. you may be confusing me with someone else.
or were YOU in a tank? cuz i did lose a couple gunlogis to other tanks. (like i said) |

CHALLENGE UPDATE
it's now been a couple of days..
- i've still yet to lose a sagaris to anything. at all.
- my KDR upon taking up this challenge was a respectable 4.5. it is now fast approaching 6. (and i don't even full time the tank.)
- my wallet upon taking up this challenge was 2 million, it is now just over 10 million.
these are facts, fight over what they mean however you will. |

the tank that bad blew up today wasn't even mine, i killed some guy on your team as he was calling it in and stole it. i dunno what it was.
it had about 5k shield hp but no repper, no clue on the resists. it was either a sica or a gunlogi, cuz the sagaris has a unique paintjob.
edit: also, bad blew it up with another tank...
so even if it HAD been my tank, it's very little bearing on the actual point of this thread. a tank destroying a tank doesn't prove anything either way. cuz they're both tanks... it's like, instead of beating rock with paper, you beat it with a bigger rock? rock is probably pretty well balanced though guys.
also, if this was that same game then what does run like a ***** mean? am i supposed to stare down your teams 3 HAVs? (woulda been 4 but i killed the guy and stole it...) so yah, if it is the game in question i spent a LOT of time running away. hitting and running with swarm launchers, and generally trying to not die.
remember, my position in this debate is that HAVs ARE overpowered. so i find no shame in running from a trio of them... |

FINAL UPDATE
i FINALLY lost a sagaris today, and as such i consider the challenge "met"
final stats:
KDR: 4.5->5.77. 1.27 increase in a week. without fulltiming the tank. if i had to guess at my in tank KDR i'd put it near 20
Wallet: 2million -> 11 million. that includes replacing the lost sagaris. so at 9-1 for the free corp battle million, 8 million isk profit.
funny story, i already had another sagaris hull from salvage, so i only had to replace the modules. i've literally NEVER purchased a sagaris. i am being rewarded them by salvage faster than i'm losing them.
i lost my sagaris to a railgun fit HAV. i think he was buffer tanked.
pretty embarrassing on my part. i knew he had a railgun AND my booster was down, but i saw him tagged on the minimap and thought i would seize the initiative. instead i rounded the corner into the barrel of his railgun. it ended badly. stupid move on my part, but i suppose it still counts.
worst case scenario i ever had against infantry was to a man by the name of doctor octagon and what i think was a static squad of his. they were quite well organized, and even destroyed a sica or two that were "me-too"ing after they saw my sagaris. at one point i rounded a corner and 4-5 infantry popped out from behind a rock, barraging me with grenades, swarms, and i think 1 forge gun. i ran... but i survived. i then returned 25 seconds later and killed them all.. also when you consider my slow reaction time (i stopped to look at where that all came from) i SHOULD have died there to. but i didn't, because HAVs are ridiculous.
if i remember correctly doc and his crew also almost destroyed one of my gunlogis. like i had to get out and repair kit the fire away kind of close.. but still, i survived and continued my rampage only seconds later. so hats off to you sir. your task is impossible but you make a good show of it.
so my final assessment remains: i believe HAVs are VERY overpowered. anti-vehicle infantry are next to no threat against an intelligently fit HAV. now i know some of you may grasp at that last point. "but the HAV driver needs to know how to fit?!!?" to that i reply, so does the infantryman. do you think i got a 4.5 KDR because i'm good at videogames? the answer is no. i'm good, but i'm not THAT good. my stats in any other FPS is proof enough of that. (my best in any OTHER game is 2) i have solid fittings that do not rely on gimmicks. i also don't believe i am an excellent tank driver. in retrospect i'm probably BAD at it. and yet i met with even greater success after passing a simple dumb check in the fitting menu.
so yah... i'm being as objective as i can be. i clearly have no dog in this fight anymore as i HAVE a sagaris of my own. HAVs are overpowered. |
