This video shows how effective tanks are now.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_1lkcv3lt3g
If you watch carefully at this video most of the time no one even bothers trying to use AVs because they are now little use, Unless you got the Assault Prototype Forgegun. Tanks are where they are suppose to be, maybe tone down the speed but AV nerf has caused no one to use AVs anymore. |

I like how the dumb A** redberry picked up the heavy while a tank was parked less than 20M away . Also how the tank did not get the points for the second kill or even assist kill points.

people choose not to use AV so tanks are the problem?
The other team didnt bring in any vehicles themselves?

No that's a turret damage mod, they're active modules now.

Oh I use a shield missile so I only use my high slots for shield related modules.

You can try to throw grenades. But then you get 2-3 shotted by the tank. You can try to use swarms. But then it runs away and your swarms hit buildings or anything in the way. You can try to use a forge gun but then the tank is out of range before you can finish it.
I think this is the problem and the reason why people don't even bother anymore. Hell, I just deleted my AV fit. Got tired of dying trying to kill a tank. Just no point in trying anymore. Best to just avoid them altogether and hope for the best.

You mean the Sica that he hits twice in its weak spot with a prototype forge gun, and then the tank driver sits there looking around as he gets blown up?
As for pulling out AV vs tanks, most of my SP is in infantry and vehicle AV, and it's all entirely useless to me because I could
A.) chase tanks around the whole map, or sit and wait to get lucky as I hunt for tanks that don't have resistances up, or who aren't moving a mile a minute (without the bug)
B.) Call in BPO LAV with NOS. Apply 7-10 remote explosives. Drive forward.
Why would I exhaust all manner of effort, ISK, and SP investment against idiots who pay a quarter of the match payout for a tank that operates just fine against all but coordinated advanced and proto assaults? **** that, I'll just kamakazi everything to death, and ignor about 15 million of my SP because it's not needed because tank to AV balance is shot.
It is however amusing watching tankers act like 1.7 tanks take much skill at all to operate

If you did watch the video, you would see that there are people using AV against him. But they die so quickly after the first shot. Once your location is up, any decent tanker is going to shoot you.
At the end when he was in the enemy red zone killing everyone, there were swarms hitting him. For a moment I thought he was almost threatened, then he repaired himself in about 2 seconds. lol
Nice video though. that was pretty pwnage. I love that forger near D that was shooting at another tank, then suddenly 2 more tanks charged him and killed him at point blank range before he even had a chance to s**t his pants.

That was always been a problem in my experience post and pre 1.7 . When people bring in AV they are seen attacking the tank by themselves in the open and obviously the tanker usually retreats or kills the AV , I hardly see many players actually gang up on tankers . They either do it because they already died often or at the last minute when they get redlined. I usually blame this on the current loadout system and the possibly the lack of player skill. |

I don't see your point here.
There were at least 8 WTF on the team in a q sync.
They were against a bunch of randoms.
There was another fully fit tank on his team that he was on comms with.
His tank was specifically set up to kill infantry.
One volley of standard missiles and he is done.
OR
2 AFG
His name is LaFlash and he is one of the most experienced tankers in this game.
Check out his stats if you think I am kidding you.
Nitrous is OP. The tank mechanics are fine. Don't adjust AV or the tank or any of its modules. Just tweak nitrous so shield tanks are the ones who are playing the hit and run role.
So about those vehicle locks...

I've beaten LaFlash and it takes more than 2 AFG or one volley of standard missiles. His tank may have been set up to kill infantry, but it sure made quick work of those 2 other red tanks in the match. Maybe it was randoms on the other side, but his final score is only slightly better than his average.
You lie too much for me to believe anything else you say. |

Well it's nice to see a familiar face from days gone by grace our hectic little forums again.  Hope things clear up enough to get more vets like yourself back in Dust. We desperately need you guys back
