Right now, 5 mlt tanks against 0 tanks isn't too uncommon. It results in a slaughter....unless it's 5 mlt tanks vs 1 true tanker or 5 mlt tanks. I for see many people speccing tanks because they're fun. When tanks are in each team, the enemy tanks take priority and infantry become speed bumps at best. When we have more tankers, like in Chrome, having 4 v 4 tank battles will be extremely common. Tanks will fight tanks and infantry will fight over objectives. The side with the BETTER tankers will achieve open ground dominance. I'd hold off on any crazy nerf for 2 months to see of the meta game fixes the problem which it often does.

Soon, these sicas and somas will turn into gunlogis and madrugars. Every battle will be 3-dimensional, and perfect imbalance will be achieved. When we have more real tankers, militia tanks will be death traps and only real tankers will bring tanks to fight tanks....I hope. Time will tell but give the meta a chance to do its thing.

I'm willing to give it a try. Though forge guns should get their charge times back and maybe, and I stress maybe give swarms a little more damage, the range is fine though.
I say this because av needs to be more effective. However it defiantly doesn't need to be where it was in every other patch in dust.

That and people will realize that hunting militia tanks is a great source of wp and isk. I have converted myself into a tank destroyer

the nurff to range is the biggest problem do to how fast tanks can move now i can barely get 2 swarms off b4 a tank is out of range never mind that after 3 swarms i need to reload and he has 3 sec to get away or kill me



tanks have range so should the av

Well, a Sica with a Railgun is a fantastic AV weapon. I love it. I just got my Gunnlogi and am heading straight for Proto Railguns. Infantry AV is trash right now, so if you can't beat 'em, join 'em. Can't do too much to Infantry yet, still getting used to the railgun charge, projectile speed, and drop, so all I can hit is snipers that stand really still, but I'm getting better.

Tanking is actually fun. Haven't used vehicles since Codex and finally putting a few SP into it again. I'm considering trying out Dropships again, but seeing what Railguns and Forges do to them is making me pretty hesitant, lol. Otherwise, it has been a lot of fun tank busting.

Dropships would be much less frustrating if red line rail tanks weren't so effective.

Literally anyone can now call in a railgun deep in the redline with two damage mods and deny almost all dropship play outside of flying around in circles at the height ceiling. There is no reliable way to remove them either aside from suicide runs, so typically if one person does this you have to recall your ship.

I'd be miffed if it was just skilled tankers who invested SP and ISK doing this, but instead I'm just pissed because a day one character can do this now.
