I just see another entitlement thread from a princess tanker who thinks he deserves to dominate because he's driving a tank.

Any tank could kill any infantry, lav, installation, or even another tank in seconds, but you want to try and convince us that someone who has equipped theirself for the specific cause of taking you down and then got the drop on you, shouldn't be allowed to do the same to you. I question your intelligence, but thank you for your post. It might help a noob or two.

500k is not cheaper than 200k
If you have everything maxed out, then you may get up to 500k for a tank, but I doubt most people are spending that. last build my standard LAV+suit was over 400k, and if I ran with a proto turret, it was over 600k. So why do you think I shouldn't be able to solo a tank? You get to solo me and everyone else on the map?
how the hell did tankers adapt to anything? They still pranced around pointing and clicking on everything in sight and then ran to the red zone and red line sniped when someone was shooting at them. They need to take off their skirts and fight, otherwise they have no room to b****.
Tanks can still be solo'd, but it's mostly because there are so many stupid tankers out here now that don't know what they're doing. And then there are people like me who don't do anything but look for tanks to be at there weak point. |

So you're saying that because you paid more than 500k LAST BUILD, you should be able to beat someone with a fitting that costs 500k after MASSIVE redesign. Your LAV and suit almost certainly cost less now than they did last build, go look up the ACTUAL value before trying to compare.
No, I'm not. I would never use a ridiculous argument about how much I spent to justify whether or not I "should" be able to kill someone. I only said it because that is what tankers used to justify their cries.
My suit still costs slightly over 200k. The lav (without a turret) is less than 100k, but I haven't settled on the build for that yet. It pretty much sucks no matter what you do with it.
If I choose to spend 100k, or 500k, that's my choice. It doesn't guarantee me a kill, nor does it guarantee that I won't be killed. That is a concept that tankers have always found hard to grasp.

If you get the drop on a tank then its hardeners are off, thats how you get the drop on a tank, yes you can solo it but you have to think about it instead of pointlessly spamming your AV weapon at a tank with its hardeners on and while its looking at you
LAV+suit 400k? lol, my proto FG is 200k max but also my LAV is 50k maybe 100k if i fit it right and the missile on it is left as standard because my AV weapon is better than my turret
You can solo it, just got to think about how to do it like i said
6+months of proto AV getting consistant buffs, invisible missiles, crap rendering and tank nerfs yet we still did tank, i still did tank in PC matches even tho i was in a moving coffin waiting to die at any moment and that wasnt because of enemy tanks it was because of AV
Point and click, lolno and also we couldnt red line snipe, rendering was broken
You act like it's so easy to get the drop on a tank. You have to be at exactly the right spot at exactly the right moment. And even then getting 3+ shots off during that small window isn't easy, especially when the tank itself and 3-4 reds are shooting back at you. I'm not saying it's impossible, but there is almost as much luck involved as there is "intelligence."
rendering affected all of us, not just you. And I've been redline sniped by tanks in every build, so if you couldn't do it, you must have been doing something wrong.

Really? Are you implying that you do something different? Why don't you enlighten us on exactly what you do with that tank of yours that doesn't involve pointing at something red and spamming your bullets at it. Are you repairing people? throwing down drop uplinks, or nanohives? Maybe you hacked some objectives with it?
From my experience, most tankers aren't even decent enough to give me some cover while hacking, unless I'm in a squad with them. Too greedy for the next kill.
