Figured I would share the post-match results, which does paint a pretty good picture of how hard tankers have it right now. http://i.imgur.com/FYPMIue.jpg I can only imagine how many militia swarms were making his life miserable in that match. You still believe that MLT swarms should make life a living hell for a guy with over 7200 shield. Why?

Thanks for the clarification. Must be a lot of smart experienced AV players out there judging by the level of QQ from tankers regarding AV. No, there's a lot of easy mode AV out there, in which the game takes care of aiming.

The name he used to post this wasn't in there, so he was AFKing with an alt. This is how................................. out there leukoplast is. Exmaple is there. Jason is there. And I'm there. He doesn't know if those two are in a squad. I'm sure you'll be able to figure it out.

Alot of times they must aswell deal with the infantry running around it. And a guy with a swarm launcher is a easy picking for some 1 with a AR. Not exactly. But having only a side arm is definitely a draw back (one that tankers don't take into account while crying to everyone that there are people in the game that can fight them.) A decent SMG is good for medium/close range fighting. Its the lack of being able to swap to a side arm, especially with this hit detection BS that is the real kick to the balls for AV players. Poor baby you have to actually stop what you doing. Sorry nemo swim away please... The fact that you can toss a nade that does more damage than my 40 ton railgun preety much is enough said... Stop driving close enough to get nailed by nades, then you can stop crying about getting hit by nades. Stop complaining about tankers sniping in the mountains with rails and yelling at us to get down to help you out.

Let's repeat this all out loud together. Only bad tankers get killed by solo AVers.** It seriously takes ever single swarm shot I have, at proto with multiple damage mods, to kill most tanks. Not to mention shield tanks and LLAVs are basically invincible to it. Especially considering how slow swarm missiles fly and how they track directly which leads to them flying right into everything but the target. Said it before, I'm sure I'll say it again. Tankers are the biggest cry babies. How many times did you miss me typing - 2 guys can dish out ~12,000 damage with 6 grenades in 4 seconds? That's faster than we can activate a repper, hardener, and accelerate away.

I can tell you exactly how much AV there was that match: one Soma with a missile turret. With two tanks rolling around on our side. Get down onto the battlefield next time. EDITed cos I'm apparently unable to spell. I was on your guy's team, plus I hate skirmish, I just go there to AFK or when a squad pulls me into it. Plus I seriously doubt an assault forge would have made a lick of difference in that battle, two tanks and maple running around with his shotgun? I would have been lucky to not have been spawn killed, let alone have enough time to run somewhere to put my forge to good use. So you hate a game mode that requires thinking and teamwork? That explains a lot.

How do you expect players to get good if you make it unenjoyable and utterly self defeating to skill into and use? its called a learning process I'm learning but going up against 3x 1200 damange dealing Lai Dais in my, admittedly ******, soma just doesn't do it for me. Can I get a bit of movement speed up in here? That's all I think tanks really need. I'll be the first to admit I learnt some hard lessons and ran through about 20+ Somas to realise them before finding what I wanted to do. Armoured recon! LOL You think Lai Dai do 1200 damage? They do near 1800 base. Against armor, right around 2000. If you think more speed is what tanks really need, you're gonna have to blow through about 50mil ISK before you understand tanking.

Militia tanks bro, been seeing more of them lately since dem noobs realized they can 1 piece the proto's running amok and just dip back behind a hill. No SP, can 1 piece any infantry. Next? Someone shoukd tell this guy you can also equip a forge with no sp investment and go tower forging. Next . Militia tank fitted with militia mods can OHK fully specced proto infantry anything. Proto forge cannot OHK militia tank with militia mods unless the tanker has no idea how to fit a tank. Your argument is invalid. looooooooooooool So you want turrets brought down to the level of handheld weapons. Got it.

Meanwhile tankers/vehcile users can just recall their vehicle and deploy another one with full health without costing them anything, usually faster than I can get grenades or ammo from a supply depot. Sounds like a problem with the game, not a problem with your stupidly OP AV grenades.
