On December 10th, the tank thing was fun. I didn't care, it was just so cool to see tanks doing flips n' sh*t.
But the fun is done now. I want to get back to playing the game, but I can't because tanks broke it. |

That's way longer than anyone, they need their turn with the paddle or they will quit. pre patch armor tanks and proper fit took 20 - 30 seconds (depending on the amount of damage mods) to kill SOLO with proto swarms. I wonder what those people crying about solo guys killing them did in those timeframe. roof forges is a map design issue. the only real issue that existed is that getting into a tank resistant enough to proto AV took long while you could get proto AV in a week of playing, which many did not realized. all the tank QQ did was already highlighting how bad some people are. most tank driver behave like average CoD kids, they want be able to run into a squad alone, kill everyone and move out alive and if it does not happen, they cry on the forum. it would be naiv to believe that this will stay like it is now, CCP will sooner or later realize the mistake and swing the nerf hammer again. enjoy while it lasts, I will just watch the show and again collect the tears of all bad tank drivers whining all over the forum.
If your tank got popped by one guy with a swarm launcher, YOU DESERVED IT.
Real tankers... GOOD tankers didn't go down to solo AV players.
But you are correct, now tankers will have a nerf hammer so hard hit upside their head they'll be begging for 1.6 tank conditions again. In a few months tanks will be banished to the dark part of New Eden; the place of obsolesce. But the HMG, Scout suit, and TacAR will keep them company... |

I want to get back to playing the game, but I can't because tanks broke it. good god can we just see how it pans out once they fix the nitro bug..............iv seen allot of QQ here over the last 24 hours along the lines of QQ my swarm launcher is unneffective while the gunlogi has its hardners up , QQ tanks are too fast and they can get away from me now instead of instapoping (yes the mlt nitro is broken reall tankers use the complex one any way ) lets just see how this all pans out once they have fixed the nitro bug and infantry learn how effective the plasma cannon is against gunlogis it really is effective but takes skill to use so don't expect to see many folks using it.
Peg, its more than just a nitro bug.
I know you've been wanting a good tank buff and AV nerf but this --like everything CCP does-- went way overboard.
Tanks are cheap, idiot proof, insanely survivable, deadly...
I rolled up to a Sica with my Soma. When the Soma turned on the hardener, my blaster did 0 damage. It healed through my shots and stayed at full as I pelt blaster shots into it.
My 77k ISK Soma can survive 4 volleys from proto swarms. (I actually stayed in place w/ mine just to find out)
The only effective AV is to simply put REs on a LAV and commit suicide. And the tanker can just call in another tank because they are cheap throw aways.
The balance in vehicles is broken. I have found it cheaper and more effective to just use tanks now 100% of the time. It's not a specialty like it once was. Everybody and their grandmother has a tank and is r*ping face with it. Tankers got f*cked over the most by this, because in a few months they will get nerfed so hard you'll want your pre 1.7 back.
I don't ever remember you getting popped by one AVer. You are a top tanker. You had more success than failure with them. My Protosuit sometimes gets killed by a noob in a starter fit. It happens, I brought it out onto the field, I took the risk. Look at how many tanks the W0LVES have destroyed on the field. We have destroyed 3,4,5,6,7 in a single match. Its there fault for bringing tanks out onto the field and still getting beat down. But it also took a team of specialists to take down tanks. Now a team of specialists can't do anything to a HAVs. |

Alone.
I remember that game. My boss kept you redlined the whole game, because:
1. You were to stupid to just recall and give up.
2. Couldn't deal with ONE guy shooting you... did it ever occur to you to just jump out of your tank and shoot him?
3. We destroyed a few tanks that game as a team and you high tailed it to the redline because you got scared and paniced.

We destroyed a few tanks that game as a team and you high tailed it to the redline because you got scared and paniced. You really should refrain from personal attacks. Did it ever occur to you that my suit was militia; because I invested all of my SP into tanks? It was likely that he was carrying an advanced sidearm.
Knowing him, he was carrying a Scrambler Pistol, probably a Prototype one... But if you can't shoot a guy with a Militia AR, grenades, and sidearm as backup, then I see why you stay in your tanks... Tanks are a weapon, and their is a time and place for every weapon. You didn't have a back up plan,.
If I remember we lost that game anyway, because we had to waste to much time on dealing with tanks. Sure, we destoryed the tanks (except yours) but we still lost because of it. Because it took that much effort to be that effective at AV, because despite what tankers think AV wasn't an idiot proof guarantee to kill a tank, especially one that actually but effort into their specialty.. Against anyone else, your team's tanks would have walked all over the map and you would have won by a very wide margin. We were able to neutralize you and cut down the lead you took in the beginning, but it wasn't enough.
Winning is all that matters. You won... and got to keep your expensive tuna can.
But to be honest, we are the best AV Corp in the game. You can't use an experience against us as the norm. You normally did more than well with your tanks, I'm sure. Or else you wouldn't of had the confidence to bring a 2.2million ISK piece of machinery out on the battle field in a match that would only awarded you 400k ISK at most...
