All tankers want is a challenge, why make it easy on them. I try and drive bomb with remote explosive loaded dropships. Not very cost effective but worth it somehow......

Tankers want to have fun, they want to be viable on the battlefield, they finally are now, ridiculous aspects of the game have been addressed like 400m swarm lock range, invisible avers at 50m, and OP roof top forge gunners denying any vehicle a meaningful role on the map.

Try not to pretend that a Buff in Tanking isn't also responsible, I know because I do both. 10 mil tanker and 14 mil infantry spec AVer. The range + DMG drop for swarms, plus a reduction in clip size at Proto, + a damage reduction to AV grenades, combined with the Buff to Tank EHP and number of tanks results in an imbalance. I'm not crying about it personally because I blow tanks up just the same...just takes a bit of prior planning on my part, but let's not attribute it solely to one side or the other.

I do both as well.

Tank speed certainly needs addressing properly, possible AV buffs buf must not exceed pre 1.7 damage, the swarm lock nerf stays in place, and I see all being right with the world.

Come on CCP, Do something...say something...let us know that your on this.

Standing back and not saying anything about if this is working as intended? Get involved man because this tank spam is ruining the game.

Horrible I cant even play for 3 matches before i just Cant anymore.

Here, have some CHEESE for your wine.

HTFU and grow a spine. Get a crew of forge gunners or RE guys and go tank hunting.

Make tankers fear calling in a tank when you're facing them.

If you don't have the SP in the right places, save up and put it there.

175 range is simply not viable. Dopships laugh at you, tankers laugh at you, LAV users laugh at you. No one competitively is going to sacrifice their main weapon slot for swarms.

don't tell me you're leaving skippy?

the main problem with tanks is the quantity you can bring in. if they lower that, then the tank problem should be fixed. just stick it out a little longer. i'm sure they'll fix it.

400m range encourages spam from impossible to hit locations. If you want to fire at us, we should be able to fire back at you.

Everyone head to the MCC for protection! You can still get your SP and let the tanks play with each other.

HA HA HA HA HA HA!

You thought you had it rough with TANKS?! Fool. Fool. FOOOOOOOOL!!!

It's the dawn of the heavy. HMG's are going to carve a crimson canal from your neck to your rectum. You're going BEG to get tank spammed compared to the horrors to come, because heavies can climb stairs.

You're ****-ed!

You mad bruh?

i just wanna have fun playing the game.

so after how many hours of jihad LAVs....... RE's..... swarms..... militia tanks...hiding in the corner..am I ok to do something else in the game?

However I must say I have had several AV debates in these forums and alot of them very intelligent. And i want to throw this out there, I respect your play and image herein the forums(true adamance) but some of the statements you made in this thread left me wondering.

"revenge is sweet"
"we have been dealing with this for.."

honestly the comments like that , make me wonder if you actually want whats best for the game, or just best for you.

The bigger beta players/tankers like you ....were already stomping before 1.7! we didnt need this militia spam **** for you to have fun. I loved having a great AV fight with a strong tanker...but then again i would rather fight 1 good tanker than 9 crap ones like i do now.

If you really care about the game man, you will join the communitty of player that will own whats going on right now and help fix it instead of pretending everythings hunky dory...while we loose possible player base over the holiday season because newbs couldnt last against mercs in new eden imagine what a newb feels walking into a squad of 6 tanks...they leave man.

just an opinion.

there is an imbalance right now big time.


CCP....did my old lady call you and set this up? cuz I feel like she made this happen some how?lol

Honestly, CCP sees these threads everyday. They don't even care anymore. Earlier there was 6 enemy tanks. I called my rail gun tank in and killed a few and when I got bored i ran aroun with remote explosives chasing the tanks. I SINGLE HANDEDLY DESTROYEDD ALL THE TANKS. Try going av before bitching on the forums.

I agree. The tank spam is ******* ********.

It's not that I can't blow up tanks. I can (Mlt sica OP)

It's that it's BORING AS **** TRYING TO KILL TANKS ALL ******* GAME EVERYGAME!

It's simply not fun

We became usable? I don't see how you can compare 1.6 to 1.7 since at 50 m you people were invisible you swarms could lock across half the map, and FG were so devastating one tower forgegunner killed the entire vehicle aspect of this game....
