DUST Search - Vehicles Are Not Broken

For a long time on the forums now i see people complaining that "vehicles are broken" and well i would like to say that this statement is a lie. Lets start of with drop ships, often i will see people using them for getting to sniping perches or rooftops to place Up-links that fine and all but drop ships where designed to do something a little bit better than that. Drop-ships are designed to get infantry onto a objective while taking moderate amount of fire, also to provide infantry support such as gunning and scanning, now never for the 2 months i have been playing dust, have i seen an cooperation using drop-ship for what they were designed to do, however my cooperation is an exception to that. Lets move on to assault drop-ships, if you think running solos a good idea think again, having those extra gunners could make you just that little bit more powerful in aerial and ground based combat, i personally run with 1 gunner who i have to say is an absolute beast in those guns. On to tanks now, often you'll see now in 1.7 solo tankers with no extra guns... this is almost nearly suicide, see what you need for tanks to not be broken is to run and organized tank crew for extra gunning that way your organized and have more eyes and are generally more deadly. Our final topic now LAVs these are only "broken" because of how people use them, they are not "murder taxi" infant all they are designed to do really is get to objectives fast and to provide small amounts of fire and small scans and other infantry support based items. Now on a final note this is not me ranting about it i just want us dusties to actually understand vehicles and use them for what they were designed for. Peace.

Repter Casanova: 8th Division Drop-Ship Pilot I dunno ive played a couple of games yesterday (10) or so and in Domination one side has ussually 3-4 tanks and the game turns into tanks Yo-Yo'ing into the redline to kill anything that aproaches, or the poor few souls who do swap to AV are getting pwnd by infantry wanting a kill, before the tank nabs it....then when a tank does goes into armor, it races off faster then my 420 HP R32 GTR can accelerate to 100 kph and then returns 20 seconds later all new. In ambush theres ussually now 3-4 tanks aswell and when one side looses their 3-4 tanks first, that side looses hard because even against Militia Tank Turrets my suit with 900 ehp just holds up 2-3 rounds and all we can do is sit in a building waiting for their infantry to come and get us, witch without their tanks to back them up, never goes too well. Ive tried tossing proto nades and the tanks just accelerate away so fast that the second grenade always misses. Ive not seen tanks this broken since Chromosone...
