Ok Ok Ok... here I am to tell you guys my story... lol... Duran Lex made a very good attempt to kill me, several times, My squad was even hating on me for "red line sniping" with my railgun with damage mods. I was just wanting to make some money and not lose a tank. I mean we all know how easy it is to lose a tank. This guy was dedicated to blowing me up. I mean he drove an LAV up to me on our red line jumped out and started shooting me. I am like you bastard! LOL. But seriously, I was just covering one Objective on the bridge map, E from under the mcc hill. There was this armor tank, some guy from TCD I don't remember his name, however he had missiles on his tank. I was like I am shield and he is armor I will just swap my fit around use missiles with damage mods and buffer fit and smack him around. Dude tanked my missiles but ran away. I hit him a lot and he didn't die. I was in shock, props to this guy, that he suvived and still had time to get to his red line and rep up and so I was a little low on HP from that battle so I go back to my "red line" spot. Never fear here comes the LAV down that long straight road. I am like you gotta be kidding me. This guy Duran Lex is on a relentless assault on me. I just run away, again, meanwhile my squad is like that tank is back at D. I am like this guy is gonna get it. I go to D, Duran Lex no where to be seen. I inform my squad he will be there soon to get me to be ready to help take him out. I see the tank. I make my flank start shooting him in the ass, weak point, watching HP just melt away. Of course he goes on his run away trip again. What is this, a forge gun again. DURAN LEX! He was on top of that hill by D. I am like you bastard leave me alone already. He hit me like 5 or 6 times. With whatever forge he had. I am begging my squad to take him out. Match ends! Now me being the tanker that I am. I had no reps on said tank. Close to 7000 shields and lose to about 40% resist. You can figure that fit out if you want. As for you Duran, I give you mad props as you were one of the only people on your team that was attacking me. Your little post just strokes me ego for me. Thanks. See you again sometime, and I am looking forward to it. |

Alright, ill humour you.
No, i wasn't on a tower...because i didn't say i was on a tower.
No, i wasn't forcing him into a corner...he decided to stop redline tanking and come in the open. Like i stated.
My post wasn't meant to dictate AV philosophies, and it wasn't mean to promote strategies.
I simply stated the fact that tanks aren't as weak as so many tankers make themselves out to be, and wanting a buff from it.
Whatever else you took from my post, its an opinion of your accord.
well at the state of tanks, they aren't worth their price, its 2 choices: 1. reduce the cost of everything needed to fit a tank. 2. buff tanks to actually make them worth their cost
this is spot on |

Redline sniping...okay, i see that coming from a mile away from tanks.
Decides to stop redline sniping, switch to missile tank.
I switch to proto Ishukone FG with prof 5.
8 Forge gun hits later....hes chugging along, with full health a few seconds afterwards....as if i didn't exist.
Yea....tanks seriously need a buff.
Ass holes. Yup, I see these kinds of tankers all the time, and I always laugh when I see one of them QQ in the forums about their poor tank dying to militia swarms.. LOL, right.  I think a lot of them just have an agenda going, QQ as much as they can (even though they are far from UP), and get buffed even more, to make them invincible like they want to be. If these std tanks can do what they do and take the beating they can take... just imagine when these turkeys get their proto tanks in 1.5 (along with a likely AV nerf due to all their QQ). It's going to be Chromosome tanks all over again, only destroyed by several dedicated squads of proto AV doing constant damage in a short period of time... otherwise they are invincible. Damn tank scrubs, I can only hope in the future we get vehicle-free modes. I like to shoot infantry, not try to shoot infantry while simultaneously getting mauled by a tank, then switching to AV only to get mauled by infantry while I try to shoot the tank. at the attitude you have, I have come to realize that you think 3 people required to take one thing out makes that think OP, but its not, its just too team oriented for you to grasp it.. iv recently started rolling in a teamlike spirit and I don't die as often anymore, maybe you should give it a try since all your doing is trying to solo us like scrubby little infantry Again, you aren't grasping the point of my post. Tanks hate the fact that 1 AV can completely destroy their tank, or make them completely useless .... which is false. My only point, and argument. Edit - When concerning properly fitted tanks. cause we all know theres a huge gap between starting out tanking with MLT and no resistance skills, and a properly skilled and fitted tank.
Man you, only you, made me run away repeatedly. Made me useless

You are ONE proto AV guy. The good tankers of dust have no problem with ONE proto av. The second another shows up we are screwed. Also, you're probably not a very good AV gunner BC if you don't understand that you don't shoot tanks with their hardeners on (shield tanks can pull a little less than 90% resistance at times), then you need to rethink your tactics.
I Gaurentee if you payed attention to his battle rhythm, you could've 3-shotted him, easily. The good tankers roll in a rhythm of kill, run, kill. Kill mode is often accompanied by 50-90% damage resistance for 10-60 seconds, depending on the build. Learn that, and tanks will be easy. There's a reason that the tank is still the best AV weapon we know each other's tricks. You'll never understand AV until you hop into a tank and learn how incredibly weak they are, save that short burst of defensive prowess.
Anyway, stop QQing. It's like saying that the AR needs a nerf BC a guy in TP went 25:0 with it. (The AR is OP but not for that reason)
it was 1 heavy azeo 1 small azeo 3 ward resists and 2 heavy payloads and on local powergrid... xt missile and dont remember the small turrets |

not in the slightest, there are still major things that aren't right with the balance, however those only make up part of the balance.
certain subjects of this imbalance are quite obvious:
no advanced or prototype tanks.
invisible swarms and infantry.
horrible rendering.
core mechanics.
AV convenience when it comes to AV grenades. etc etc.
the only thing that would be beneficial in starting the overhaul of this imbalance would be to bring in advanced and prototype tanks.
only then could we begin, otherwise wed be back to where we are now.
and squads are fine il admit, but they aren't ideal for survival, especially if your squad doesn't care about your tank nor does your team which is what happens 95% of the time.
tanks need lone survivability, otherwise theres no incentive to skill into them other than waving the currently biggest weapon around pointing it at your enemy's faces
I agree with most of your post, except the bolded part. They don't need lone survivability, you just need better friends. First, it should take more AV then one person can carry to bring a vehicle down. Just as a tank should be operated by more then 1 person for maximum benefit. Second, there should be no man portable weapon that can out range a tank, especially in render distance. Equal range or less. The only exception here might be blaster turrets, as they are a close range high damage choice. But that should be made perfectly clear in the show info tab, so that people know the ranges that they are choosing to fit to their chassis. Thirdly, calling in an HAV into a public match with no friends should be a high risk choice. You should be risking a very high cost machine, that doesn't guarantee you a killing machine if you can't find the right people to accompany you. I'm not sure of the viability of this, but hopping into someone's vehicle should give the driver the option to add them to their voice channel/squad. This will help facilitate the coordination it should require to dominate the battlefield. Along with this, drivers need the kick function. One that will prevent the kicked person from hopping back in, for at least several minutes, maybe even the duration of the match. yes, we do need lone survivability, why else do we have the ability to personally skilling into tanks ourselves instead having it like BF. its for us personally to use them, if you take away our effectiveness as a lone tanker, you remove the incentive to skill into them. I know I didn't skill into tanks so random people could get in the gunner seat, I skilled into it so I could use it myself I think we'll just have to disagree then. If you want to tank alone, then I think you should run the risk of being solo'd by AV. I certainly don't think that the driver should lose control of the main gun. In fact, I think that if you solo tank, you should be able to quick swap between any available turret, while still controlling the tank. Here is an example of a well coordinated tank against solo AV. WARNING, GRAPHIC CONTENT! Notice his loser friends who didn't skill into AV to help support him.
now you see me, now you dont |
