In camp A we have the tankers, who believe that all gear should be able to pay for itself and make a profit on public servers.
In camp B we have the infantry, who believe that powerful gear should have a price and require some grinding.
And never the twain shall meet.
The disagreement isn't about whether or not you are likely to lose your tank. The disagreement is about whether or not that is acceptable.
Let's face it:
Tanks have the potential to ruin the fun for infantry.
AV has the potential to ruin the fun for tanks.
Infantry has the potential to ruin the fun for AV.
And we are all fighting for our fun to be extended, while making somebody else's live miserable.
Who has the answers? I don't, but I can't be the only one who is getting bored of this argument going in circles over and over again.
Just throwing a thought out there: Wouldn't it be nice if tanks had a way to contribute to a match without engaging infantry, which would give them the choice of whether or not they want to risk encountering AV? |

LOL They don't believe PRO gear should have a price. PRO AV costs less than my 180mm nanofiber plate. That's just the plate! The price of PRO everything was nerfed into the ground, because ya know, can't pub stomp without cheap PRO gear. Can't let those noobs fresh out the battle academy have a chance against me, 'cuz I need to run the ADV Cal Logi and a Duvolle to kill those in free MLT suits. 
Maybe some think that, but not those who are truly in "camp B".  |

Erm yes let me just grow wings on my tank and fly across the sun changing the lighting while you guys shoot stuff. not engage infantry honestly what do people expect us to do?
Uhm, shoot other vehicles and secure another objective or installation? But I must admit I can't think of any way that could be implemented either. The obvious problem being that wherever vehicles can go, infantry can go since you can just walk out of your vehicle... It could only be done by having an atmosphere that kills infantry by itself, but that's probably too contrived. |
