Except installations aren't keeping infinite ammo.

/shreds petition. Vet tanker disagrees.

There is no need to add finite ammo to tanks, if the same 80GJ blaster, rail, and missile installations have infinite ammo, then so should tanks. there was not ONE suggestion or complaint about ammo for tanks. whats interesting is back in chromosome me and my tanker buddies were joking around saying "hey how much would it suck if tanks had ammo!".
this change would be THEEE most unnecessary thing done to dust in its history. sure its great to throw around ideas, however, this should be just that, an idea, not a plan.
VET TANKERS AGREE?

You're taking this one change under isolation. It's not being made by itself. Tanks are likely to get drastically tougher to compensate, and AV is being reworked as well. The vehicles that you use now - hull aside - will not be the vehicles that you pilot in 1.5.

Stop crying about a single change, when the entire system is being rebalanced.

I would like to go around collecting ammo from supply depots that would be fun, and be a challenge. and you can always recall you're tank and get a brand new one if you run out of ammo.

As a member of the anti-nerf movement at face value it looks bad. However if Missiles get back some of the old glory in trade then it will be good.

fine then i'll just stay by a supply depot the whole game. infinite ammo back

If that makes you happy. But Ill be rolling around and enjoying the "driving" of the tank. Who cares if someone destroys your tank, just get another and get back in there like everyone else does.

If they have a slow internal nanohive system it might be bearable. But if they require such a system to be an extra module it will probably go badly.

I don't believe there will be internal nanohives, but Iron Wolf Saber mentioned max ammo modules. I'll link it if I come across it.

meh.....id rather have an ammo skill like infantry.....as it is we get ONE skill per turret, it boring and already more expensive than infantry stuffs per skill.

I would like to specialise or even buy my Ammo since I am essentially using the same stuff as EVE pilots. using Amarrian Frequency Crystals to fire my laser shots which recharge over time, or even buying the missiles or hybrid charges like in mech warrior games.

As a non-tanker, I disagree. I like the finite ammo idea.

However, as someone with a tanker in his corp, I do agree that something needs to be done to balance the new Swarm buff. I don't think they should do anything to tanks until they at least look at what they can do to make it even for tankers and swarms.

i cant believe they buffed swarms to double the DPS an entire patch before 1.5......

but hey, i know they had their reasons and it was probably to balance LLAVs. Tanks and dropships were already broken before so a swarm buff technically didnt change things, just polarized the situation even more.

with the roadkill changes and swarms changes, hopefully infantry can have an easier time of being braindead without having to look both ways when crossing the street. Cause, you know.....god forbid something that isnt an AR kills infantry....

take my logic mixed with sarcasm ROAR

KT ing is so much a problem but when people are jamming there llav through the ashland complex because its easier than shooting something is just a little up!

You still have to look before crossing, but at leastmif he misses he can just reverse for another go, what we'll see is a more tactical use of roadkilling as an area denial asset, hes making a run for C SPLAT!!
