while vehicles are indeed in a need of a change remind that he is using a proto weapon against your non proto vehicles.

also, fit your tank properly, it was already shown plenty of times that a properly fit tank can endure 6 missile volleys. plenty of time to get into cover.

forge guns on the other hand, there is no escape.

To look cool.


The major icing on the cake is that they BUFFED the swarms before 1.5 (the vehicle fix that never happened)
So now, not only are vehicles not getting fixed but these Machine gun swarm launchers have another month of roaming the universe.

Eugh, I put up my armoured LAV for a month because of this. It's killing me that I can't pull it out for another month :(

Apparently you're really bad at communicating with your squad and focussing fire? And also, given that no matter what countermeasures we use, even multiple vehicles spider-tanking, we can be alpha'd and out-repped, it'd be shocking if those AVers didn't smack us six ways to Sunday.

I don't expect to go 20-0. Sometimes I go 30-0, sometimes I go 17-1, sometimes I get four kills and get massacred by an Ishukone. Sometimes I don't run my tank. And also, given that LLAVs are no longer viable in that sense, it's no longer a relevant argument. And a tank can only 'mow down an entire team' if no-one's trying to kill it. Even the most half-hearted attempt with an MLT swarm will give a tanker pause.


lolwut? There are five AV weapons in this game; AV grenades, Flux grenades, Forge Guns, Swarm Launchers, and Plasma Cannons. Three of those five are multipurpose, and Swarms have a range of 400m. Congratulations on recognising that a swarm launcher can't redline infantry! Nor can an AR, given that the odds of one person redlining an entire team are NIL. But a swarm launcher can redline members of a team more permanently than any weapon besides a forge gun, and keep them there more effectively than anything but a sniper or again, a forge sniper.

And no. I have a crazy advantage in WP gain, simply because I can kill everything. I also have the greatest risk. Although, that's like saying 'Logi has a crazy advantage in WP gain over me'. What it MEANS is that I can't push an objective solo. I am nothing more than a slayer. My contributions to the team ONLY come in concert with the rest of the team.




The bottom line? If I'd invested all my SP into Medium suit AR, I'd be dramatically more effective, and profitable. I don't want my tanks to be more effective. I want them to not force me to grind for an hour to pay off one death. And unlike infantry, the only way to profit in tanks is, ironically, using high-tier modules. Which are exorbitantly expensive.
