You can't use cover because there's rarely any cover and you can't strafe anymore because people cried about it too much. The only thing you can really do now is brick out your best suit, hope you opponent doesn't have a Duvolle and thank god you're not a scout. Yeah, very hardcore... Dude I don't know where you've been but there are definitely cover in a lot of maps (not counting snipers or long ranged attacks). Trust me, I'm an armor tanker for a year now I've been taking cover and tactical advancing because my shield can't recharge in less than 5 seconds. I actually have to think about my advancements instead of charge straight into an objective CoD style and strafe back and forth expecting wreak havoc. I don't even use aim assist so I'm not going to defend or support it but if it's making shield tankers utilize tactics and thinking besides CoD charging straight in and vibrating back and fourth as a means of defense then it can't be all bad. Welcome to club tactics shield tankers.

Quote: ...utilize tactics and thinking besides CoD charging straight in and vibrating back and fourth as a means of defense then it can't be all bad. Have you ever heard of hit and run tactics? For me I have a scout suit that is unable to be tracked by any active scanner execpt for the insane 16(12?)dB prototype one. If I see a situation where it's possible for me to flank around I do it, kill two or three (and throw a flux) and get the hell out of there. I don't know about you but it's pretty universal about damage types in any games (or even real life examples). More Armor- Take more damage, slow Shield- Do less damage, faster than armor, recharge automatically. Speed- May not have a high hp but speed suits generally rely on intelligence (information to attack targets). I.e you can't fight on the frontline of battle. Flank around or support, catch the enemy off guard.

Right now I have the impression its more of a wild west gane where whoever shoots first wins...without a proper cover system and maps designed for that system. No one really uses tactics... As you can see in this this thread from other posters and yourself no one sees tactics because they don't use it. I'm not sure what fps they come from but simple minds thrive in it I guess. If tactical positioned structures aren't right in front of their face they fizz out. I like these maps because you have to use your environment to your advantage. (especially the new maps, old maps, not so much on 60% of them) Of course, it makes it easier for me when people don't think there are any. That thinking is what brings my orbitals even more frequent. Keep that mindset up, I could always use more ISK.

I kinda feel bad for those reds you guys were talking about running through an open field Haha, well they deserve it for running through an open field.
