Mac Dac Wraith Shadow Guards D.E.F.I.A.N.C.E 343	Posted - 2013.12.11 05:48:00 - [1] - Quote Alright i got nothing against these speed tanks. Afer all you tankers aren't dying as much and aren't lossing a ton of isk. I think this is resonable dealing with the balance issues of the past. So i offer a resonable request from CCP. We leave tanks exactly the way the are and we get the old beta swarms back. And im talking about codex swams. the SMART swarms. the ons that flew over mountains to the last location the vehicle was then followed its path until every swarm hit its target. The ones that did 90 degree turns then took off at the speed of sound homing in faster then a shark chasing a wound fat prey. i think this is a resonable request tankers keep their speed and swarms become viable.

Hey, I'am a swarmer and always said something had to be improved in favor of dropships, but what they did there is too extreme and not the right solution... an alarm or radar system would be appropriate, but I think CCP is just too incompetant to come up with something good.

Naviticus OSG Planetary Operations Covert Intervention 3	Posted - 2013.12.11 08:10:00 - [19] - Quote does anyone have a bias opinion anymore? Let me start off by saying I have proto swarm launchers, heavies, commando, forge gun, and AV Grenades. I agree the cost of tanks vs the way they were able to be taken out before was ridiculous, insurance on tanks would be nice(like in eve). I bet most good tankers wouldn't complain if they could make a full Vayu fit for 300-400k before this build. So many things can be said on this topic but swarms were kind of ridiculous when they changed the lock time, it wasnt necessary. They were fine with 5 in a clip and a longer lock time. How many years in the future is this game based? and your vehicle can't warn you it's being locked? That would say "red light! im getting locked I'd better get to cover!" Forge guns, Over nerfed. Direct damage nerf not necessary, splash damage I don't mind. You have to be a good shot to direct shot infantry and anyone before could pick up a militia forge gun and shoot the ground. I challenge non heavies to get direct hits on infantry with the forge. Train to heavy.... your vulnerable as all hell with armor plates on now. As if the scrambler rifle didn't rip through your armor fast enough, add the rail / combat rifle to the mix, constant tanks, slow a heavy down, give him a nerfed forge gun, got the makings of a easy target. Heavies shouldn't even get a stacking penalty on plates. THEIR HEAVIES! Take a body builder(heavy suit) throw 200lb weight on his shoulders do you think he would have as hard of a time carrying it as a 80lb etheopian(scout suit) same goes for medium suit. What it all boils down to is too many changes at once. At least with the old build tanks were expensive and would separate the boys from the men. Now that viable tanks can be made at a cheap cost, why wouldn't you call in another one? You die in a proto commando or logi suit....thats 200k+ isk die again 400, meanwhile tank dies twice 120k. All of us that are complaining about this arent thinking about the big picture......what about Joe Smoe who just downloaded a new game called dust that looks cool and is about to play it for the first time. All infantry is getting pushed around by constant

You want to blow up stuff blow up lavs supply depots tanks and installations. p.s. your a bad dropship pilot if you cant avoid swarms. Dropships have always been a pain to shoot down with swarms more, so a deterrent that's what forge guns were for, and Indeed was annoying to have to bug out after every volley but tbh do you think an Apache helicopter could take multiple volleys from swarm launchers? Flares/counter measures would have been ideal.

You want to blow up stuff blow up lavs supply depots tanks and installations. I had sympathy for dropships in 1.6. Thats why i never purposely killed a dropship with my proto proficiency 5 swarms (unless it was a miltia dropship trying to get on top of a tower) especially if they were learning to fly. In fact, i shot down 1 dropship in 1.6 and i felt terrible so i sent 2mil isk to cover it. A good swarmer knows sympathy, but these HAV get no love now. Not after the beta GOD era.

Bubba Rector BR514 8	Posted - 2013.12.11 15:53:00 - [33] - Quote It's not a crutch. I don't think anything should be changed AV wise until the speed boost on tanks are fixed. I don't mind the damage nerf to swarms since they nerfed the armor for tanks. That was needed. However,I don't like the nerf to the lock on distance. At least at the extreme that was done. I think a range of 175m (basic) - 225m (proto) would be a viable solution. I would even be happy with a skill set to increase lock on distance. Another option could be an ability, or variation of swarm, to turn lock-on OFF and give the weapon a splash damage radius of a forge gun. TA-DA! BAZOOKA!

I fear the day prototype tanks are released against our nerfed AV gear, but hey backwards development is the thing to do. Step 1: Make standard tanks Step 2: Release prototype AV equipment Step 3: Nerf AV equipment because prototype kills standard and militia too easy Step 4: Nerf AV equipment again range and damage. Militia tanks are still 3 shotted with a forge gun Step 5: Buff tanks Step 6: Release prototype tanks for a cheap cost Step 7: Watch increase in forum activity Step 8: Success! Tankers complaint ratio went down

CLONE117 planetary retaliation organisation 505	Posted - 2013.12.11 16:22:00 - [36] - Quote cut the active damage mod and active resistance mods effectiveness in half. maybe reduce the cooldown time a little on all variants. tanks dont have hardly any slots now they got an overall buff in total hp though. they severely lack pg and cpu for any of it. i was testing the new tanks out. the large missile turret is pretty much an anti tank tank weapon now. if i had a guy with mlt swarms following me around i could just fire my 12 missiles at a tank and watch the swarm finish them off. turret rotation speed on all large turret types also seems rather slow. and i cant hardly turn while moving up a hill or on any type of ramp type thing. im happy for the buffs the tanks got they feel alot better now. alot less paper thin. the reps are passive now and the basic heavy rep module reps at 100hp/s. i do like the changes. but the new effective anti tank weapons are probably going to be a large railgun or missile turret for a while. all i can say is ambush is not a good place for infantry right now. some of these tank players have been running around destroying things in ambush. if swarms got their damage brought back to 330 per hit. i can see some of these tanks going back to their old tactics. proto packed av nades seem to still be deadly though. maybe with this new reckless attitude that some of these tankers have gotten so far could quickly get hit upside the head through better coordinated av tactics. av just cant do what it used to do. relentlessly pummel and chase a vehicle for ever until it dies. it looks like they have to set traps now. i dont see them entirely as throw away tanks. i like the price reduction it hurts my big wallet less but id say i hurt my new wallet even more because if the seemingly cheap price. because i rarely took out tanks during matches now. id say tank vs tank seems more balanced now. but im ok with getting aved now. my only hatred with av was with av nades. i thought everything else was fine. the tanks getting an averall hp buff and nerf in slots pg/cpu turret rotation speed and given ammo are probably just the "balancing" features. all i have to say is blaster turrets feel weak vs vehicle strong vs infantry. and the other 2 turrets seems to be strong vs vehicles weak vs infantry.

With 1.7 we can expect to see 3 battles going at once battles in the sky battles in tanks and battles in boots the last few games I've played have been chaotic. You want to blow up stuff blow up lavs supply depots tanks and installations. Hey, I'am a swarmer and always said something had to be improved in favor of dropships, but what they did there is too extreme and not the right solution... an alarm or radar system would be appropriate, but I think CCP is just too incompetant to come up with something good. I've been on top of buildings with militia swarms and have been close to killing assault dropships on my own. That's the honest truth no Im not in favor of the 175 meter lock but it seems as if people have just given up because they can't lock on from 400 meters away being pretty much invisible to the ds.
