I voice up in several topics related to AV Infantry vs Vehicle, Vehicle vs. Vehicle, and I'm tired of this because CCP don't give a ****. Theres not too many tankers, our voice is nothing compared to voice of other social groups in this game, like Assaults. If 100 people want something in this game to be done, CCP will not listen 8 guys and do something that will upset those 100 guys  . CCP wants to earn money, not to lose customers.
I think Dust should look like World of Tanks at some point. Infantry should be able to damage the mechanical parts of the tanks rather than kill it with 3AV nades. People should have option to slow down HAV, lower it tracking capability, or even turn off repairing or resistance module - grenades should do supporting roles in Anti-Vehicle stuff, it not supposed to be primary tools at killing vehicle. |

I hit him with 3 AV grenades and 4 proto swarms in the space of approximately 25 seconds, his tank survived and he got away. 3 back to back AV grenades to start things off and 4 back to back proficiency 5 Wyrikomi swarms fired as fast as you can lock on.
Those 25 seconds were all he needed to get to where I couldn't reach him or aim at him to kill his tank and he could repp in complete safety. Not that he needed to, the match ended as soon as he got to safety.
Why don't you go ask him how he runs his tank, because by your accounts you obviously can't keep a tank alive through all of that. He can and did.
As do most tankers. You missed out half the story In 25secs i can run back to the redline What map, what mode, what tank, where were you, what route did he take, what did he do, did he just take off, did anything hit or did you think it hit etc etc etc Too many details missing so whats to make me think that you just didnt make it up on the spot to prove a point? Ask him, I gave you his name. I didn't know you needed a story teller to recount the tale for you. Communications, madruger. Here's the map, follow along. I was at I6, he barrels into the city from I/J3, he kills me and 2-3 others while we're in a fire fight across the street between A & B, I respawn at K7 and he's at E12 shooting through the gap at G11 and rolling slowly my way. I move to the boxes at I7 and shoot a swarm as he rolls to about G9, he stops to shoot at me so I move and I toss 3 AV's from cover at the barrier at H8, he continues to creep towards me so I retreat to cover behind the boxes at I7 and manage to fire off 2 swarms, he realizes it's time to go, I'm at only 20 armor as I fire 1 more swarm at him and he rounds the corner out the west gate and circles around the back of the complex. And he's scott free. What tank? if its shield it can take some punishment from swarms at least, armor is a diff story But why swarms in the compound? why not a nanohive and instant gibbing with AV nades? Only way i can think is that you missed with AV nades dont know how but you missed and not all swarms hit it and they maybe hit the box if you tried the jump out lock fire back in cover A. As I said, Madruger B. The reason for not spamming AV's, as I mentioned above, is that the tank was coming closer to my cover and I had 6 mad mass driver nuts spamming rounds towards me. Tossing a hive and setting up shop in those conditions is not ideal, I'm lucky I managed to toss the 3 I had and get back to cover. It's part of the perils of having no primary weapon when you run AV, you can't fight back across streets like that effectively. C. Every swarm I shot connected though a single missile of the last swarm I fired nicked the barrier around the door as he was leaving. D. He had right at 1700 armor left as he was leaving the city, I was watching his health the whole time I was trying to finish him off. As I said, ask him. If he still remembers, we're sitting here dwelling on it and he's prolly moved on through another 10 matches by now. The longer you wait, the better the chance he'll forget the whole match lol
A
I have Madrugar with 12,4HP total, split on 5,5k~ shield and armor. When someone ask you S/A question it's good to answer with concretes, 'it was Gallente tank' doesn't give much.
Could you tell if someone was fixing him, 6 Mass equals at least 2 Repairing Tool.
I think that you was hitting his shield for most of the time. |
