Well lets name the most common example of AV (with swarms). You are mid range (because long range swarms are easily avoidable), the tank is firing at you and so are the enemy infantry. If you are really lucky then you are able to wail on the tank, and destroy it, which most times is not the case. We will be gunned down by infantry long before this happens.
Now lets name the perfect example (The ones people QQ about). The tank drives in a wide open field. Not paying attention, the Swarms wail on him to death with everything it's got, and the tanker QQs about being destroyed.
So CCP listens to thier BS reasons and balance AV around teamwork. So for arguments sake, lets say that it now takes 3 people (half a squad) to tank out a tank. The LOLTank squad now uses 5-6 tanks, and we all have to use teamwork to defeat them.
But it is "balanced" to force 3 people to take out ONE Tank.
That would mean 15-16 people on AV just to deal with them (WHICH IS ONE ENTIRE TEAM!). And what about the enemy infantry? You think that they are just gonna sit there and watch the fireworks? NO!! They will go after all the objectives while the tanks freely stomp everyone without good AV resistance.
Then you have the drug users who say MLT AV OHKO's thier "good" loltank. Well the only way to OHKO a "good" loltank would be to have Profecincy lvl 4 or 5 and a complex damage mod.
These loltankers want tanks to become god and have MCC level health and resistance. They know what would happen if we "balance" AV this way. Don't let them stomp us! AV users unite! Let your voice be heard and put this evil to rest.
And if CCP does listen to the tankers and tanks become the most OP thing in video game history, I'm gonna file a help ticket and Demand 1B ISK and 1M AUR, as well as a store front picture on the market of me saying I TOLD YOU SO! This post is so one sided.
-With 5 Tanks on the field they have 5 less infantry to take Objectives. Most objectives can be defended against Infantry without exposing yourself to a Tank, although having a tank there makes it a real pain.
-If it takes 3 guys to kill a tank, the same 3 guys can kill the next tank, and then the next. The other 3 guys should be keeping the infantry off your back. By the time you get the third tank they will be recalling the other two.
-Militia Swarm Launchers will still suck, but they are free and everyone has them, so it would not be unusual to see 4 blueberries with militia swarms and some dude on a turret.
-The 3 AV to kill a Tank idea applies to properly tanked tanks. Glass Cannons, and half-ass fits will still fall to a single Proto Swarm Launcher.
