Lol, while your numbers are exaggerated (just a bit) I will give you there are way more ****** infantry than there are ****** tankers, but only cause there is way more infantry than tankers.

So I offer a compromise. Over the next week or so I will do my best to help blue tanks, so long as they are at least attempting to be productive and letting me get off the bumper if they hit me (it happens, I know, just let me get off). All I ask is that you blue tanks at least look at who all is on your team, and if it looks like you have a strong squad or two, give them a chance to work on some of the supply depots. Those things can be crucial. And if you hit someone, let them get off your bumper (unless you got a bunch of swarms launched and heading your way, in that case I do understand. It's getting pushed forward as tanks are attacking that is really irking foot soldiers).

Unfortunately I can only speak for myself on this compromise. Hopefully any infantry players reading this thread will follow suit.

We can start there and see what happens. If we can get some trust built back up between tanks and foots and get us all working together, we could do some amazing stuff.

I refuse! It's comfy in there with the air conditioning, and the cushy seats..., and the armor and shields equal to 10+ times that of my scout suit.

Oh :(. I thought we were gonna make out on a cliff, isn't that how those movies go?

When did this hate relationship develop between troops and tanks?

LOL True sometimes I think you're just crazy. Battles I've been in, mercs support their tanks. They will chase down swarm launchers and take out Forge gunners so I'm not sure what you're talking about.

The truth is, the tank holds no respect for the infantry. I jump in a tank, he automatically thinks I'm just in it for WP assists. If I'm driving my LAV, the tank will just mow over me without any regard. And I didn't even see the tank. If I turn the corner and there's a tank moving in my direction, he will just continually drive forward while I'm stuck in some jerk animation as I try my best to get away from the tank. Which is really impossible until the tank decides to let me go.

Someone has to stop the foolishness for productivity. Tank guys gotta stop looking at infantry as just morons who flail about on the field and thinking they're some kinda god on the field.

This post sure helps your cause. It definitly makes me want to risk my clone to help you.

If only more tankers refused to work with their blueberries, then we would have a lot less tanks in pubs.

Sounds kinda fun though, I may just slap on some free militia suit on an alt I don;t care about, go find the nearest tank, and refuse to leave so they can't recall and also shoot the guns wildly at no particular object.

It bugs me to no end that if theres a friendly tank on the field they wont let me support it. I understand why they dont, but I wouldnt mind getting in your tank with my reppers and shotgun ready to kill swarmers or AV naders and rep the tank afterwards.

I know, I also run tanks.

One of my fondest moments in uprising is when I jumped into a shield tank as he was headed towards an objective, while we're going a swarmer pops up and hits the tank so I immediately jump out and run him down turned out he had an uplink nearby so I take that out too, along with the unlucky forge bastard that spawned there as I was mass driving it, ran back to the tanker that had decided to stay there and jumped up and down twice to tell him that it was clear but an assault guy with an AR had snuck up behind me and put rounds in my back I turn around with half sheilds fully expecting to die before I kick the bucket though the tanker puts four rounds out and melts the dude, I jump in the tank and we continue the match.

After the match I get a mail that says: "Thanks for the help. Glad I could repay the favor." This is truly something that made me smile.

And your the reason why 9%% of tankers wont leave a extra turret on

GG

here i made you a special hat now go sit in the corner

You're delusional, tanks help push points more then any infantry blob.

The reason we dont like blue berries in our tank is because they WONT LEAVE. We even pull in the red line and wait and they just sit there.

Have I mentioned i'll be running for CPM1 when elections start? Could really use the tanker community behind me.

the tankers have a completely valid point that their being screwed,but its all jibberish by this point. I dont personally think tanks shouldent be able to be recalled because its not enough for me to solo them, they shouldent be able to escape me ethire. and personally i dont think its a problem for tankers to be killed by their own teammates

Im tired of almost killing a tank and the driver goign around a conner and recalling it in an instant.

I'm a tanker/Team guy
