And yeah the IA variant can lock on to two targets at the same time, but the damage is completely halved between the two targets.
So I propose that we either make IAs do double damage when splitting the swarms between two targets, or make the IA variant as cheap as the Wiyrkomis i have an idea! how about we make swarms cost as much as my 2 mill tank and make the SP costs 10 mill to unlock it! its meant to supress. if you cant kill tanks in the ****** status that they are currently in, then you really are as crazy as you sound. sorry to break the news to you but swarms have been OP since the darks ages of the murder taxi. You clearly weren't here for cromo tanks And I have no problem killing tanks, it just that IA swarms aren't that cost effective
You clearly weren't specced into AV during Chromo. |

Your right, I wasn't. But I am now.
Congratulations.
The reason Chromo tanks were considered OP was nothing to do with their actual effectiveness, but to do with their perceived effectiveness.
Even in their current nerfed state, you ain't killing a top-shelf Maddy with MLT swarms, unless you have two buddies.
Back then, we had top-shelf tanks, superior to what we have now, AND the benefit of negligible infantry AV. The only real threat was other tanks, in the end.
But instead of actually speccing into AV to kill us, infantry bitched and moaned, and the nerf-hammer gave us a double-tap. |

Says AV was negligible back then Blames guy for not spending SP into something that wouldnt work Riiiiight And since I know its coming yes I was around in Chromo, yes I speced into AV, and you are right even at a high level you would do **** all to a tank and he could park next to a CRU or objective and farm kills is he desired but now that being a tank means you are still mortal like the rest of us its time to cry about it for the past 6 months
I thought it was pretty obvious that what I meant was that there were negligible quantities of infantry AV in Chromosome...
No?
My forge guns had no problems with most tanks at ADV; most tankers didn't have a clue how to deal with them. And the best ones... with my ADV forge assisting, the well-fit ones died anyway. Not like they could recall, so you just chased them until they died.
In future, I'll bold the concluding sentence of my post - the one that makes it pretty clear what I'm talking about. |
