Good tankers slip up still, but Tank battles don't end immediately, they're like little skirmishes and then eventually one slips up and the other wins. Oh and don't use blasters for TvT, they're for Infantry. Missiles for Armor, Rails for Shields.
I'm not a tanker, but that was one of the most glaringly obvious balance issues with tanks.

If you and infantry had it your way, a blaster would be no more effective than an automatic rifle, a rail gun no more effective than a sniper rifle, and missile no more effective than a mass driver.
.....no? I, personally, wouldn't want that.
My point was, that the blasters were undermining the missile and rail turrets. |
