I like this, we just need to tone down the infantry-slaying aspect of blaster turrets a little more. Less RoF, more damage. Essentially the rof should be so slow that infantry can run in front of the blaster without being hit, but the damage should kill off most unfitted suits in one hit. Almost like a sniper at medium range. This would in no way impact on their ability to kill tanks since they're such big targets. Or just remove Blasters completley.
Hell no. Not a tanknuser but hell no
Please don't Hack this game. I will join the NSA and hunt you the hell down. Don't believe me, wait 18 years!

While now I only have to worry about swarms these Nascar tanks that are saturating the game are ruining everything.
I had a tank catch up with my LAV, IN THE DAMN CITY COMPLEX. Werent you one of the people in favor of boosting tanks?
Suck it up then...The AV nerf was bad enough considering pre 1.7 tanks were already pretty hardcore sometimes. But as always, DUST514 community needs EZ mode. EZ mode Assault versions of everything so thy can spray an pray. EZ mode AA, Ez mode tanks, EZ mode armor plates.. and so on...
I was in favor of boosting my poor Methana.

And you are a RUDE EZ moder.....
but everybody knows that anyways...
Stay in topic please.
-BTW i think LAV's are pretty powerful now too. Mine can only be killed by tanks. I laugh at FG's and Swarms and im pretty sure a single Flatylock pistol round hurts more than AV grenades....

Can't solo them (or drops ships, either, it seems), which is fair. The speed glitch is obviously ridiculous and needs to be addressed, but I have to admit, I've been having fun -- certainly less boring. Anyways, most of you new tankers suck a$$ at the moment, so everything is pretty lolworthy from my prespective. I should have been killed dead-to-rights a number of times last night, and would have been by any decent tanker in the game... seems like every Red thinks they can drop a tank and just start blowing the **** out of everybody... it's been fun teaching them otherwise  I'll prolly change my mind once these new jokers get some more practice under their belt.
Herein lies the future problem.
Newby tankers get used to how powerful tanks are right now, but they will be the loudest when CCP nerf the speed (or whatever they will inevitably change) to make it more balanced. |

When everyone said tanks were OP, I was the AV guy. That lone Swarm Launcher on a field of free MLT tanks, raking in the kills and assist (and vehicle damage points, how I miss thee...), and it was GLORIOUS. Nobody ever expected it - then suddenly, out of nowhere, SCOUT SWARM LAUNCHER.
When all the tankers cried over the nerfs, I was still an AV guy, but I had to check it out. I bought a tank. Eventually, I learned to use it. And yes, they got buffed back to being useful. But I was a Caldari Missile tank. Right after the massive nerf to combat the infinite-range Missile spam problem. Basically, the weakest of all options. And yet, somehow, I did ok (partly because all the other tanks were loaded up on armour). I could tell I was using under-performing gear, but I made it work... kind of. I never did quit playing AV though. My Swarm Launcher continued its mission.
Eventually, over a LOOONG period of crawling through buffs, nerfs, and simple changes, we've reached today.
My AV doesn't deserve this nerf. But I don't really care, I'll still enjoy it. And when they fix the handful of bugs giving tanks an actually unfair advantage, I'll enjoy it more. |

Stop mentioning the Forge gun.. They already removed splash damage and rate of fire.. They already took away all the great stuff that made it a good balanced weapon I hate to see it gimped even further to support some corrupt CPM or QQing medium suite players. |
