How to scare off a Rail Tank:
-Get a militia sniper fit
-Shoot the tank
-The cowardly tanker will be so startled that he's actually taking damage he'll gun his tank straight back away from the battle.

1.7 will break the game. already FGers only shoot at infantry ruining all tactics with OHKs, and 1/3 of team reverts to using thale sniper rifles breaking down to a completely unplayable match. But with the new vic changes, tanks will be even more invincible, AV will be strictly anti infantry. and this game will go to complete ****. Give a universal respec to level the playing field.

I think both camps are bad and need to do something with their wrists :)
And yes I understand my OP didn't make much sense to you, it was a simple fix for people who say they're Anti Vehicle (As in, fighting against Vehicles) and use Infantry based AV, why not just invest in a tank that has a Railgun? :)
I mean, it's my personal belief that a tank should kill a tank, Infantry should be a nuisance. I guess because I thoroughly enjoy tank v tank battles, it seems more intense than Infantry v Infantry (yawn.)

Use cheap light/scout suit, fit swarm launchers and AV grenades and proximity explosives.
Sneak up behind the tank, shoot with 1-2 volleys from swarm launcher, spam grenades, place explosives behind it (tankers seem to instinctually back up when hit.)
Doesn't always work, but I have killed a bunch of tanks using a cheap-fit scout BPO.
Alternatively fit nanohive, AV grenades. Sneak up behind tanker, deploy nano hive and spam grenades.
Make no mistake, this is a suicide mission, but it works.

How to do it today:
Solo:
1. Call in BPO LAV 2. Attend local supply depot. 3. Grab fit with prof V FG, proto AV grenades. 4. Circle the enemy hav at range to evaluate when the best time to attack is. 5. Rush in, hop out and throw two AV nades 6. Shoot with FG until the tank is dead.
Repeat as often as the enemy is dumb enough to call out tanks.
With teammate:
1. Call in LAV 2. One guy with Lai Dai packed, one with at least adv packed AV grenades. 3. Locate HAV, approach very aggressively 4. Hop out, spam grenades until the tank goes pop.

well, if tanks could survive outside the redline, I would be more than happy to get in the middle of the battle.

I hate rail snipers I was going after a proto rail on the ground cautiously, he hit me twice dropping me to 4k armor I was going to wait 1 or two more hits to make sure I didn't rep too much when I was at max armor I got a little closer and the rail sniper above him rendered in and I was screwed before I could react to a proto rail and an advanced rail pounding me.

Hmm.. Well if we think a single railgun shot is actually hitting a heavily armored and shielded vehicles and doing a significant amount of damage, I've got a feeling modern day tanks wouldn't survive from a single shot.. :)

Its debateable Atiim. There are times when mu HAV seems like its doing its job well.....there are other where It seems weak as hell. As we have discussed before neither one of us is ambivalent enough to actually have a valid opinion since we are by far too biased. And our anecdotal evidence is pretty lack lustre

Its debateable Atiim. There are times when mu HAV seems like its doing its job well.....there are other where It seems weak as hell. As we have discussed before neither one of us is ambivalent enough to actually have a valid opinion since we are by far too biased. And our anecdotal evidence is pretty lack lustre Shh your going to confuse it with all these big words.
Atiim and I are foils of one another though he does not know it yet. He is quite capable I assure you....just misguided.

I'd like to think that I'm unbiased. All I want is for people to stop trying to balance PRO weapons against STD hulls and for both AV and HAVs to require teamwork to be successful. Why does everyone constantly assume that I'm on an AV Crusade?

So the best way to kill a tank. . . . . is with a tank?
1) Isn't that overpowered? 2) What if the other team doesn't hav a HAV speacilist? 3) What do infantry the main protagonists of the game do while we wait for the demise of this HAV
I just hope if this is the way CCP wants to go with tanks, that they give infantry a decent form of transit and plenty of cover, because I sure as hell ain't gonna play manus peak, with tankers!

ITs not like most of them have afterburners to Flee when they are out of hardeners/reppers like the freakng Millenium Falcon into another galazy.. And now with the UBER impressive 175mts range in swarms it will be pure luck if you can fire a single volley vs a fleeing tank... |

Ooh, I haven't been on here for a while, I like your sig :D The funny part is how it's an exact opposite of the truth. Replace anti-vehicle infantry with pilots and you can summarize about 95% of their "balancing" threads. I think both camps are bad and need to do something with their wrists :) And yes I understand my OP didn't make much sense to you, it was a simple fix for people who say they're Anti Vehicle (As in, fighting against Vehicles) and use Infantry based AV, why not just invest in a tank that has a Railgun? :) I mean, it's my personal belief that a tank should kill a tank, Infantry should be a nuisance. I guess because I thoroughly enjoy tank v tank battles, it seems more intense than Infantry v Infantry (yawn.)
You apparently have never seen or heard of foot soldiers making tanks worthless, you take out the treads you take out the tank, after that you just open the hatch toss in a grenade, dead tank crew. |

I think the better question would be why would we have AV? As a last ditch go out fighting kinda think before the big bad HAV disintegrates you?
It's like them giving you a starting pistol on round 40 of zombies It's like them giving you ammo for the one gun you don't have It's like them giving you 1 extra life in crash bandicoot after you wasted 3 lives getting to the box
Why don't we just remove AV from the game (after it should be useless), then a few months later remove infantry(they can't stand up to tanks, why have them), then another few months remove the lavs(no one is driving them) and then dropships(no one needs any transport)

It encourages escalation game play. Current all AV does is reset the counter back to 0 v 0, Infy vs Infy
Why do you not want to see matches with tanks rolling around fighting one another, dropship assault squads, etc?

But you can't destroy a tank using your own poorly fit tank because you're terrible, so of course you don't want a tank to be its own best counter. I think my best tank is pretty good. It can survive multiple people with AV while still being combat effective at the same time.
The tank I was using when that ADS ambushed me in was a 400k tank that's good for healing other vehicles but does poorly in combat because it has no hardners or nitrous. Besides, even with Nitrous I would never have been able to evade the ADS, and I couldn't fire at him because he was directly above the turret and out of my tracking range/zone.
I don't want HAVs to be the best or only counter because that's not balanced.
(On another note, what makes a good HAV fit? Hardners? Nitrous? Active Scanners? Heat sink mods? Dmg control mods? if those make a tank good, then my tank is "awesome".)

That if I don't squad with a compotent tanker I shouldn't bother? Or that if I don't squad with a compotent tanker I might as well run MLT and limit my losses?
Is that what your saying? Are you expecting every team to always have a tanker? Even in public and factional contracts, where the roster is randomized?

Unfortunately, you also don't know how awful it would be if implemented with this game's current "I must stomp at all costs" playerbase rationale. You also don't understand how it wouldn't be fun when people start a battle just to find 7 tanks on the field while thier AV does little to no damage to them (even at PRO tier) and nobody on said player's team being a vehicle pilot.
It sounds good on paper, but the actual implementation would be terrible. Just like the Commando class.

How is it not balanced. We are firing, primarily, frigate class Rail Guns and Blasters at one another.......... you are firing tiny little pellets and missiles from hand held platforms.
Cant we just agree to make tanks more effective at killing one another, and less effective at Anti infantry. Artillery will do our ground trooper killing anyway.

Escalation gameplay is all well and good, but where do youbgo from tanks, MTAC's, Gunships? What happens when you reach the top?
When you reach the top of escalation gameplay it becomes all about who has the most top level stuff at any one time!
What you want is Cyclic gameplay, where everything beats everything in the right circumstances! Where it becomes what is deployed where, not how much of itl

K. I'll never understand the problem you all have with a tank being its own best counter. Why would I use AV if HAVs are 300x better? It encourages escalation game play. Current all AV does is reset the counter back to 0 v 0, Infy vs Infy Why do you not want to see matches with tanks rolling around fighting one another, dropship assault squads, etc? Escalation gameplay is all well and good, but where do youbgo from tanks, MTAC's, Gunships? What happens when you reach the top? When you reach the top of escalation gameplay it becomes all about who has the most top level stuff at any one time! What you want is Cyclic gameplay, where everything beats everything in the right circumstances! Where it becomes what is deployed where, not how much of itl Examples Escalation Gameplay: Sid Mierer's Civilisation Cyclic Gameplay Tom Clancy's EndWar
And where do vehicles get the benefits? Only ever on maps where the other team is too stupid not to field its OP AV, abuse roof tops, or poor tank rendering.
I do not want to make infantry unusable they have their uses in entrenched positions, building, and to hack things, they should not be able to dominate in all things on all maps like they do now.

K. I'll never understand the problem you all have with a tank being its own best counter. Why would I use AV if HAVs are 300x better? But you can't destroy a tank using your own poorly fit tank because you're terrible, so of course you don't want a tank to be its own best counter. I think my best tank is pretty good. It can survive multiple people with AV while still being combat effective at the same time. The tank I was using when that ADS ambushed me in was a 400k tank that's good for healing other vehicles but does poorly in combat because it has no hardners or nitrous. Besides, even with Nitrous I would never have been able to evade the ADS, and I couldn't fire at him because he was directly above the turret and out of my tracking range/zone. I don't want HAVs to be the best or only counter because that's not balanced. (On another note, what makes a good HAV fit? Hardners? Nitrous? Active Scanners? Heat sink mods? Dmg control mods? if those make a tank good, then my tank is "awesome".) A brain makes a tank good.
How is it not balanced? Explain yourself.

Is that what your saying? Are you expecting every team to always have a tanker? Even in public and factional contracts, where the roster is randomized?
Where are you getting that from? I'm asking a simple question.

Tanks provide moving cover for infantry, they can provide area denial, act as a slayer, point defense, and destroy fixtures and installations including Enemy CRUs.
This is a lot to offer in one package, yet they also do not have the downside of being nearly as easy to destroy as any other vehicle or infantry.
Tanks are by no means underpowered, and using terrain and tactics to destroy them is not some sort of "abuse" the word you are looking for is called for tactics. |

That's why I have been lobbying to make Tanks ANTI VEHICLE weapons, with anti infantry only a very distant secondary role that requires skill shots like the current rail guns do now.

The end result is the same, one team still stomps the other, you just have a bigger target to QQ about.
There is no difference between the Tank and the Assault Suit at its most basic form of functionality.

7 tanks as you call them: ''UNDERPOWERED'' Totally wreck the game balance AS IT IS. Depending on the map, ateam with 2-3 tanks can completely control the battlefield. now imagine With Nerfed AV weapons...
Tanks can be Fotm, everybody using tanks, the 7 ones to call them in first can play at their fullest.
Of course in the case a Tank is the best Tank counter could be Viable, if Matchmaking put say: 2 tankers in each side. But with the Matchmaking as it is, it would be 4+ tanks in one side, Infantry only on the other side, and for balance sake, Infantry will need a way to deal with said tanks. Its not too hard.

LOLNO. ISK and SP makes a tank good. Tactics aren't even required.
Tell me, and I want your honest answer. Do you think people will use AV when it would be easier to use an HAV. Why should I be forced to use an HAV to be good at taking out HAVs?
Not quite sure you realize how that Idea would work out if implemented. Tanks would become the biggest FoTM this game has ever seen. You think Flaylocks and ARs are bad? Think Contact grenades deserved a spot in hell? Wait until you create a FoTM so big and powerful that the only way to combat it would be to use the FoTM. Making the FoTM even bigger!
Oh wait, that's exactly what you want. Infantry to hit "leave battle" so tanks can do nothing but scratch themselves up and spin their wheels (technically treads, but still).

but that's all this game is right now. Vehicles aren't allowed to coexist with infantry because of the current potency of AV vs vehicles.
All AV does is reset to status quo infy vs infy.....and means we cannot escalate the fight to the massive battles that made me want to play this game from the 2009 trailer.... battlefield with its arcade mechanics and limited vehicle numbers....is already looking like a better alternative from a vehicle combat stand point.

What, you want automatic rifles to do more damage against tanks?
And this is why I lump most tankers in with the kids who have to wear bike helmets to school, you think your only counter should be another tank, and hell be damned if anything else even hurts you. If you want to play world of tanks its =====> that way and its just as free as dust. |

Because currently all I ever see in matches is extremes where "Que-synced" full squads of corps like Nyain San are placed in a match of nothing but randoms and going 40-0. Because this game's playerbase has the "Must stomp at all costs" mentality. Because if it can happen, it's going to happen.
Lets take the logistics class for example. It was designed to be a versatile support class. But it also had the ability to tank better than assaults and most heavies, stack 3-4 complex damage mods, and a built in repair of 5HP/s. I'm sure that CCP didn't design the logistics class to be the best assault suit in the game with more eHP than the average heavy did they? But why did it become this way? What led to this extreme problem we have now?
It's because it was designed to allow this to happen. It wasn't meant to be this way, but since the possibility was there and the "Must stomp at all costs mentality" was present as well, we have the 1000hp Medium Frames running PRO weapons with 3-4 stacked complex damage mods. Who needs a sidearm when your 4 complex damage mods can melt everything on sight? And the 1000hp doesn't do much in terms of penalties when they already have more stamina than a heavy and did you forget about the PRO Scanners? You know, the ones with godlike range and the ability to scan 99% of all scouts?
Should a Medium Frame be the best counter to a Medium Frame? Should Light Frames be the best counter to Light Frames? Should Heavy Frames be the only counter to a Heavy Frame?
If a game has a class so powerful that the only efficient and effective way to counter them is with the same class, it is a game that I and many people will agree is broken

Why would you lose upwards of 500K isk a match, for no effin respect, the inevitable loss of phasing SL, or invisible building Forgers? Answer is you wouldn't you can only wait for those inevitable extreme matches and stomp the **** out of the newbies because otherwise you tank is as good a scrap.

Dude you want to test that on my tank this evening? I doubt it can take six swarms..... if it can I will not bother QQing again. But I know your fits couple 3x Damage mods as well.

Hey I want tanks to be powerful but most of these people don't want tanks to be even touched by infantry. Many of them are of the mind set that if its small enough to be carried by a single person it cannot hurt a tank. And this is just wrong, there are many weapons out there from the simple hand held grenade to our personal anti tank weaponry such as the RPG, that can easily disable a tank, they are so dangerous a tank commander will not send tanks into an area he knows there are RPG's being used in. Now you might say this is a game, and you are right, these tanks have projected shields, and much thicker armor than our current generation of tanks. However the weaponry we use is also much more powerful. In a 1 on 1 encounter an AV user if he is smart should be able to easily do enough damage to a tank to make a single manned tank retreat . However what these tankers want is the ability to totally ignore AV unless the entire other team is using them in a coordinated strike. |

So your idea is for a tank to be able to take MORE than 6 Missile volleys in a row. PROTO MISSILES designed to DESTROY vehicles?
I mean ,if after the first volley the tank hasn't gotten the f away,he deserves to die , of course...
Even at PROTO level,Infatry does not just STAND taking damage...you move, take cover.Why should it be different for tanks? |

well, for those of you who were not there for the greatest point Dust have ever been at (this is a bag of ass by comparison), in Chrome, tanks were good. Like, really good, and there were quite a few of us. Most infantry knew that their swarm launcher (most had mlt or std) would not cut it, nor would a forge gun, so infantry made friends with tanks and just about every squad had a tanker in it, rather than swarms or forges like we see since 1.0 dropped. Because of this, just about every battle consisted of 2-4 tanks/side smashing eachother with 5000 dps turrets from 600m away. The only time tanks actually went 30:0 was when the other team did not bring any tanks of their own, as nobody had good AV. This gave the idea that tanks were OP, when really, it was more like saying snipers are OP when all that is on the other team is shotguns. the balance was great, honestly. I spent most of my time shooting tanks and I loved it. But since most tankers left, i only have infantry and dropships to kill, so now tanks are seen more as pubstomping tools than anything else. I predict that tanks WILL run rampant for a month or so, but then you'll start seeing a lot of people speccing into tanks and suddenly, the balance will be restored. every battle will be dropships fighitng dropships, tanks fighting tanks, and AR scrubs shooting eachtoher with their aimbots. Yay! Harmony and Friendship has been restored!

Hmm.. Well if we think a single railgun shot is actually hitting a heavily armored and shielded vehicles and doing a significant amount of damage, I've got a feeling modern day tanks wouldn't survive from a single shot.. :) Modern day 120mm mortar can destroy a tank in one hit. It doesn't puncture or pierce armor but a 20 pound shell traveling at 300m/s stopping instantly after impact creates 720kN of force, which is enough to crumple armor like it was paper. If it were rail tech the velocity shoots up to 700m/s which will give the projectile 1.6mN or for a better perspective .16 megatons of force(the same as a small nuclear explosion). So in tank vs tank battles it is usually whoever shoots first wins.

Why would I use AV if HAVs are 300x better? It encourages escalation game play. Current all AV does is reset the counter back to 0 v 0, Infy vs Infy Why do you not want to see matches with tanks rolling around fighting one another, dropship assault squads, etc? Escalation gameplay is all well and good, but where do youbgo from tanks, MTAC's, Gunships? What happens when you reach the top? When you reach the top of escalation gameplay it becomes all about who has the most top level stuff at any one time! What you want is Cyclic gameplay, where everything beats everything in the right circumstances! Where it becomes what is deployed where, not how much of itl Examples Escalation Gameplay: Sid Mierer's Civilisation Cyclic Gameplay Tom Clancy's EndWar And where do vehicles get the benefits? Only ever on maps where the other team is too stupid not to field its OP AV, abuse roof tops, or poor tank rendering. I do not want to make infantry unusable they have their uses in entrenched positions, building, and to hack things, they should not be able to dominate in all things on all maps like they do now.
You see you miss the point, that because I don't except the same idea as you I want tanks to be easily stomped. Actually read what I write, I have no problem mwith tanks being powerful, what I have a problem with is when you want Anti-Vehicle weaponry to be useless against them.
I don't have a problem with a tank taking down a squad if he networks with his own squad to bring them down. But tanks are niche weapons, just like the dropships, just like the Mass driver, just like the laser rifle.
It shouldn't be the answer to every situation. Being the only side to field one shouldn't guarantee victory, being the side to field the most shouldn't either.
Instead there should be points where tanks are the best solution to certain problems, not all of them!

And if you read what I write you will know that is not what I want. I want balance. You don't get balance when enemies can be doing more damage than large rail guns with more splash, all the while being invisible, same with swarms. That is not balance, The size of the armament we carry we should easily have the same range as you if not more, with better in built visual targeting equipment.

Tanking will get a lot more tactical with the vehicle patch. Now listen, I don't mean to put too much blame on blueberries, because there are quite a few who help out, and are smart players, and all that, but it's a stone-cold fact that the biggest obstacle contributing to HAV destruction isn't just AV. It's those damn randoms who won't get the FLUCK out of the tank so we can do a recall. Making HAV's a single pilot affair is going to do soooo much good for my blood pressure.
I lost a tank last week in the worst way: I radioed it down, and enemies started shooting at us. I bug out of there, hide behind a wall, and wait for it to drop, then run out only for some YOLO Brazilian kid on my side to hijack my tank, drive it straight into the enemy, get five quick kills and then get blown up.
That's not counting all the times my damn teammates refused to leave the damn tank so I could recall. Seriously, seriously, annoying. So anyway, AVers, that's how you kill a tank. Wait for someone else to jump into it, then unload because you know the tanker'll be trapped. |

You don't get balance when enemies can be doing more damage than large rail guns with more splash, all the while being invisible, same with swarms. That is not balance, The size of the armament we carry we should easily have the same range as you if not more, with better in built visual targeting equipment.
*sigh* Did I say render shouldn't be fixed? No Did I say you shouldn't have more range? No
Did I say a Tank should NOT be the onlt counter to a Tank? Yes Tell me where you think I don't want balance, ACTUAL balance?

I don't have a problem with a tank taking down a squad if he networks with his own squad to bring them down. But tanks are niche weapons, just like the dropships, just like the Mass driver, just like the laser rifle.
It shouldn't be the answer to every situation. Being the only side to field one shouldn't guarantee victory, being the side to field the most shouldn't either.

Yes Void, I see you took the time to read! If you can be bothered you might find my main doesn't use AR, but of course I disagree with you, so every assumption you make must be true right?
Hell lets apply your logic to both of us.
You go play World of Tanks I'll go play COD,

Where are you getting "no teamwork" from? I'm a big proponent of teamwork being overpowered and awesome. All my SP has gone into tanks, I literally cannot contribute to the teamwork if my teammates get my rig blown up. Bro, I have a nice mic, and I try to explain to these cats what's going on and what I need them to do, and they don't listen: they don't want to get out of the damn tank. Who can blame them? It's fun, and they won't be the ones out a million isk when it blows.
Suuuuucks for meeeee, though. |

Because if infantry requires a tank to kill a tank that's not infantry that's a tank, so in actual fact you are telling tankers how to kill tankers which inforces the point that tanks are gonna end up op if we continuemdown this road so really everytime you tell us its easy to kill a tank with a tank, you reinforce our point,

What's the best counter to a gun? A different gun. Just like how Mass Drivers are the best counter to Shotguns
What's the best counter to infantry? A different class of infantry. Just like rail tanks are the best counter to blaster tanks.

Actually, Rails are not the best counter to Blasters. It depends on a lot of factors, it's like saying a Sniper Rifle is good against a shotgun, Sure, at range, but a Blaster fitted to a speed tank is better at dealing with a Rail, Also depends on the type of tank, a missile tank might be better than a rail for example.
But I don't care much for it, the reason I'm replying is to ask a question, should AV be stronger than the turrets? Such as a Forge being stronger than a rail (don't give me BUT FORGES HAVE AMMO, because rails will too) just a question. Also, should AV be so cheap in comparison? I don't disagree that a solo tanker should die to a solo AVer (as a solo AVer can die to a solo tanker) but the cost comparison is ridiculous.

Not really, what of the strength of a rail vs a Forge for example, oh and any a rail in the hills against a blaster is like a sniper in the hills firing at a shotgun scout, again it's all down the situation and how good the players are, if you're a sniper and not on the redline, it's possible to get a jump on you with a scout, same as a blaster tank getting a jump on a rail.

Because if infantry requires a tank to kill a tank that's not infantry that's a tank, so in actual fact you are telling tankers how to kill tankers which inforces the point that tanks are gonna end up op if we continuemdown this road so really everytime you tell us its easy to kill a tank with a tank, you reinforce our point, Your mind is now blown, see you when you get out whats the BEST counter to a gun? another gun. whats the BEST counter to infantry? infantry A Then as an AV trooper why are we only paid for Pure killing ? Why are we LESS effective against infantry if we are infantry as well ? Why make a role if it's not economically viable to do that role "the right way" in your view ? carry a smg and ccp needs to add WP for damage
