Because you're complaining that the AR, SMG, pistol, scrambler rifle, HMG, shotgun, flaylock and sniper rifle do a pitiful amount of damage to tanks. That's exactly what you said.

Same guy all in a row.

98.9% of AVers are trash. 0.1% of Pure AVers are capable. 1% of the most capable AVers are Tankers. Tankers are 0.3% of DUST 514's Community. LOLTruth

Please be real, all the tankers, or close to 90% destroy every single installation at the very beginning of the match. Even the yellow ones close to your own starter area before any team member gets the chance to hack it.

If it can be hacked, it's a threat to our survival. If you would were in something worth a million ISK, you'd remove any potential threats too.

Tankers are not the only problem. I have also observed Swarmers destroying depots to get the warpoints. This is a general issue which decreases the dynamic of the flow of the combat. You are screwed if your team spawn without AV and the opposite call in a tank.

Again, face it, infantry is generally stupid. Half the time they don't understand what they're doing. Those that do know, understand, and are trying to create favorable conditions for their team to advance on an objective and take it. Why do you make it sound like it's not fair if your enemy spawns in 2 tanks and nobody on your team has AV yet? Should those enemy tankers wait for your team to get AV, then try to move in and help their own team? That's suicidal.


Only way to circumvent this is to die and spawn with AV. Lets say 5 team members independent decides to spawn with swarmers, you will then have the tanker recall his tank and have 5 useless swarmers on the team, which again have to die to swap back to infantry combat.

I really don't see the problem with that, because a tanker created favorable conditions for his team to advance on an objective. If you can't see the logic in that, then you may as well stop gaming.

And I also have a heavy with a forgegun, this at least are semiusefull against infantry. Try to be a slow heavy with only a SMG as weapon, might as well waddle back and hide behind the redline to avoid the cost of your death, few forge gunners survive long in close combat.

I've beat heavies in my own heavy suit with a Toxin SMG, no skill points into it at all. I have an SMG on all my heavy suits. It's stupid not to have it. If you don't carry one, that's your own fault, and tank balance shouldn't be determined by someone's failure to be ready for every situation.

Please give me a chance here, I am actually on your side, saying AV should do less damage to your tanks if the infantry get a fair chance to be able to avoid the tanks. Is this not what you all are wishing for, tank battles and not tanks vs infantry? Lets have open areas and tanks that are only destroyable by other tanks.

But you have absolutely terrible arguments that don't really help.

Infantry need a save area, a place they can call in a tank to fight the existing tanks without getting snipped or see the RDV and tank get blown up by a red railtank from across the map.

Safe area? It's called a building, or a friendly tank.

Did you know 5000% of all statistics are made up?

You are now enlightened!
