" More like who has a 33k eHP tin can that only takes 10% damage from non AV weapons So, you're basically saying you want an AR to do considerable damage to tanks? No, I'm saying that if I had a suit that had 33k eHP I would call it OP. No, it's exactly what you were saying, because I said nothing about eHP, you brought that up after so as to not make your argument look childish. Not really. How is my argument childish exactly? 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. Teamwork for thee, but no teamwork for me, such is the motto of the anti vehicle infantry.

Acturus Galaxy Happy Pumpkin 187	Posted - 2013.11.20 10:48:00 - [45] - Quote Tanks will be all good when we have maps where infantry can avoid the tanks unless having to cross open areas to other sites. As it is now, you are easy prey with very few areas where you can escape from the tank. I fully understand infantry getting mad at the tankers, the tankers can instant kill all infantry within range while the infantry has very few areas where they can hide. The tankers have destroyed all supply depots which prevents anyone from chaning to AV and later from AV back to infantry. Who would spawn in a 100k isk AV suit that would be rendered almost useless after the tanker have recalled his tank and only infantry are left on the battlefield and no supply depots. Add more safe urban areas and supply depots within buildings that are unreachable by the tankers. Have the tankers roam around in the open areas with AV doing less damage. Have smaller scale combat infantry vs infantry withing the sites and larger scale battlers in the open areas between tankers, dropships etc trying to transport personel safely from one site to the other.

If we have our way, AV would SUPPORT destroying other tanks, it wouldn't be that you need LOLAV grenades only to destroy a tank.

There is NO STOPPING THEM at that point. I guess you've never heard of an ambush here. It's more than just a game mode.[/quote] Ambush? What are you going to do, smack them with 10 rockets at the same time? Because even that isn't going to be enough. Shield regeneration bonus for Gallente Assault is about as useful as Sharpshooter for Nova Knives.

Like I remember saying, infantry complained about contact grenades, and they got nerfed into the ground. Tankers complain about AV grenades, and infantry complains back saying "WELL WHAT ARE WE SUPPOSED TO USE TO KILL YOU." AV grenades don't insta kill you with just one nade.

So... basically what I said. "What, you think people in your corp know how to use tanks? I X up when your corp asks for tankers, but they don't take me. Dunno why, when I know how to use them." Maybe because you aren't a good tanker like you believe you are? LOL does RND even have any tankers? I've never seen Grodd or Xender in alliance chat. Do they even play? Last I remember, those are the only tankers in the whole corp. As far as I'm concerned, if they're not in alliance chat, there's no tankers with RND tags. You have to get ringers to fill that role. I can take on tanks in CQC with a railgun. Would you be able to do the same, given full proficiency and a month of free top-fit tanks? Teamwork for thee, but no teamwork for me, such is the motto of the anti vehicle infantry.

But I can tell you that we had a tank in every PC match I was in, the fact that you aren't there doesn't mean we don't. Edit: Hmm, I'm wasting my morning here. I'll go back to playing Dust, have fun.

It was cancer for a long time. It was pay ISK to get K/D. Now they are making it require a bit more effort to pull off something good out of a tank, instead of "LOLFREEKILLS". Psst, the original method of thought of the guy who got fired from CCP was that tankers are a step up above infantry, they are the endgame, infantry have no purpose. If Tanks were a Cancer.....you must be AIDS [/quote] Well, AIDS has many more treatments than cancer, so yes :P[/quote] Incorrect Quoting....... Does your AIDS also have Dyslexia??? You can sometimes get rid of Cancer.....but AIDS is 4ever
