On the contrary, tank speed is a VERY good thing. It means tanks have more of a "shock trooper" role. Come in, do massive damage, and leave for a minute of whatever. If you have a proto AV squad keeping watch it'll probably be pretty reasonable to kill these tanks but otherwise, if left uncontested, these things will be able to do good damage again! (which is what they wanted I believe).

Thats how I lost my third maduger of the day. I was harassing the hell out of a group at one capture point, their tank blows me to bits while it caught me in the middle of a reload ><
I should have brought my missile tank out considering it does full vehicle damage.

Did FoxFour actually reveal the surprise? Because now you said that it remind me he hinted it was something that contains and that the surprise would be somthing like a picture... So it would be neat if they were to show a picture of the web equipment.

I dont disagee with that but thats a role that id prefer to see filled by some sort of fast assualt vehicle rather than the games version of a MBT which in my eyes should be for providing fire support to advancing infantry and breaking enemy positions and putting the hostile fortifications and fortified positions but thats a different topic and cant be talked about due to lack of content,
Either way thats all well and good i dont have problem as long as good AV can take out good tank, if it takes a tank to take out a tank we have a real problem that needs addressing but as ive said i dont know this to be true yet as i have yet to play this build.
Also well played Marston in last PC battle i hate that scrambler lol pure minmatar shield guy here |

Ill have to reserve judgement on this one, it really depends how easy they are to destroy, to add high speed to a unit that already has so many advantages against infantry it has to have something else lowered to be balanced.
If this becomes the game of troll tank 514, where they role in, blow the **** out if everyone and leave, this **** is going to get real old real fast. |

You mean, now that you have to actively hunt tanks you suck. AV were and are now scrubs 514.
If your not pulling up on a tank with another player throwing av nades followed by swarms as they try to run then you are doing it wrong anyway.

I'm shocked that you of all people say that, two people will blow a tank up no problem so what is the problem?
All I see are solo av people butthurt they can't solo now. The tanks in ww2 needed teams to take out so clearly a behemoth 22 thousand years in the future will need two guys.
The problem isn't the tanks, its solo av barbarian's.

Someone's been drinking the tank coolant too often. Neither vehicles or AV are supposed to have an empirical advantage.
If so a squad with just two tanks on the field would already have 12.5% more equivalent infantry on the ground, vehicles are not a replacement for teamwork. Because of this, one tank should be a me to take out one AV guy and vice versa. |

You do know I was a Tanker in close beta. Right now it 1.5X faster now.
Why nerf the AV if the Tanker can move fast to cover now, unlike the last few built. Just wait till we get advanced tank back with that god speed. Tank 514

Someone's projecting what they think it should be like as opposed to how it should be.
A tank IS an advantage, you get in a tank to gain a slaying advantage, its not a tin can mate, the whole point of a tank is so your side gains an advantage, you don't bring a tank onto the field because theres no advantage do you lol
Its a tank ffs and my point still stands as you can clearly tell from the game and reality.

It's been said before it'll be said again, this game is risk vs reward, tanks are a game changer without the appropriate counter on the field, and while tanks are literally superior ok every way to infantry, av is not. To allow for fun competitive play, bringing out tanks can't be considered a "win button" I don't give a **** how much your tank costs, it doesn't make sense that one side requires teamwork and the other requires none.
Also don't bring realism into this argument, not only does it not have a place in dust, it also only leads you to being wrong. One Javelin can take out a tank. Mini-guns are accurate to 600m, and mass drivers equivalent the m203, has a 15ft KILL radius per shot.

SMGs are awesome, until you get riddled at 60 meters by an assault rifle or SCR. Good luck killing anyone of equivalent gear at that range. Also wasting the time to shoot them can easily allow vehicles to escape, now more than ever. |

first of all, as long as you can drive a tank solo a solo player should be able to hold a tank off. this is not rocket science, as soon as a tank is equal more than a single suit you create an arfiticial balance issue which turns the game into "the team with more tanks win"
and to clear things up, pre patch tanks were not soloable when driven by a nonscrub. the problem was that AV scaled too fast compared to tanks and tanks were a bit too low on hp. I posted the math several times how long it takes to down a SP maxed tank with proper fit solo pre patch moths ago and the question is, what was the tank driver doing in those 20 to 30 seconds while being shot by a single guy? masturbating? tank whines only serve a single thing, highlight which player is just bad at tank driving.
I also warned when tank vehicle changes were announced that 20k+ehp is already much and every further change has to be done with cauiton but instead of only changaing tanks the devs also have thrown AV nerf into it the mix. now we have vehicles with 20k+ ehp and AV weaponry doing 30% less damage.
now you have the complete opposite to before, sooner or later tanks will get nerfed again and histroy repeats. |

I just witnessed a flurry of tank on tank combat, and it was hilarious. Watching these things zoom around like go-carts and shooting each other...just hilarious. Totally ignored me, a lone infantryman amid a tornado of tank violence.
I saw one injured Madrugar try to retreat, but he was so fast that he zoomed backwards and hit a rock formation that was a good 15-20 ft behind him, and instantly exploded. Careful tankers, that speed might turn into your enemy! |

Going after a tank when it is hardened will only lose you your battle. You need to watch how it engages and then watch what they do when they disengage. Next time they engage go to where they pull out and you will have a easy kill with a tank that has no hardeners on. |

The problem isn't the tanks, its solo av barbarian's. 12 year old German children were able to solo tanks in WW2 with a Panzerfaust. Tanks can be taken out solo in today's wars. But to be totally honest there shouldn't even be any tanks in the future. The advanced weaponry and drones would render them useless.

Its pretty unbeiliavable as a forger I took a shot at a tank at my maximum range got his attention and he drove the distance before I could get my third shot out, now I did not have an lav close to me, so I was toast cause I had no where to run so after throwing my 3 proto av nades I was space particles.
The speed is wish my scout suit could carry the damn forge. Tactics are a changing |

Someone doesn't know their ww2 weaponry very well. Say hello to the Panzerfaust "was operated by a single soldier", "The weapon, when correctly fired from the crook of the arm, could with its shaped charge warhead penetrate the armor of any armoured fighting vehicle of the period."

and btw AV grenade also easily destroyed tanks because armor on tanks is thin on the top or under the tank. |

It means tanks have more of a "shock trooper" role. Come in, do massive damage, and leave for a minute of whatever. If you have a proto AV squad keeping watch it'll probably be pretty reasonable to kill these tanks but otherwise, if left uncontested, these things will be able to do good damage again! (which is what they wanted I believe). Ill have to reserve judgement on this one, it really depends how easy they are to destroy, to add high speed to a unit that already has so many advantages against infantry it has to have something else lowered to be balanced. If this becomes the game of troll tank 514, where they role in, blow the **** out if everyone and leave, this **** is going to get real old real fast. nobody seems to understand CCP's logic. if tanks only purpose was to take out infantry, then why are there railguns and missiles? if rendering was good then this would all balance out! I used to run a rail fit and take out tanks all day! I remember taking 6 out in 1 game. if people actually could see the enemy, then there would be no AV to attack the tanks, because the only tanks would be those behind the redline.
I believe this is why tanks in RL aren't just infantry slayers. |

So here is balance.
Assaults were scissors, AV were paper, and Vehicles were rocks Some leniency as paper could sometimes defeat scissors, rocks could occasionally beat paper.
Until rock reached patch 1.7 and became an unstoppable killing machine.

What do you think about the new Tank changes? You were real sensible back when you were active, and helped out a lot with figuring out rail damage. I'm curious what you think
