I have 8.5 mil sp and i don't say this lightly.
Typically this is how a match goes:
-begin with an optimistic outlook
-'you have been scanned'
-OP rail rifle fire from the back and death.
-tank rolls up,it has been the one scanning
-surrounded can't escape spawn ****/ OB team kill (Ambush)
-tank that scans moves really fast around obstacles and back attacks
-suggest limit to OP tanks get response : "hurr use a tank to counter tank spam" which would only create more spam
-try plasma cannon,supposed to do over 1k damage direct hit,barely does 150.AND it's rounds explode in mid air making it worthless as artillery.
-try standard AV with 3 others,scanning tank doesn't even flinch,look at the information says "MLT" tank.
-left feeling hopeless and depressed because there are no effective counter measures,and "hurr use dampiners" is a stupid suggestion for a logi. |

That is really only a stupid suggestion for any class if you don't have the skills to fit them. By all means be a bright and shining beacon for me to kill, IDC in the slightest.

Infantry scanners are eq,and your saying it's fair to force me to use a slot or two to counter 1 eq?
Lolno,an eq should be made to counter scanners so i'm not forced to use up valuable slots. |

Why?
Dampening is in many ways more powerful than other items you can load your slots with. I don't see why the current damps as a counter to scanning is an issue.
Tanks are a problem but there are many ways to deal with them. My favorite right now are RE. Just lay out a field of them in the tanks stomping grounds, find a nice spot to wait and watch, then collect your wp. The best part is you can dump 6 different types of RE 3 of which will go off when the vehicle drives over them (setting off the others in FW or PC) and you can set of the rest manually. So much fun. If you're feeling bold you can even chase down the tanks and stick the RE right to their tail pipe (only takes 4 to kill a tank that way).
Combining forges to force the tanks to move in certain directions with RE is an even better combo.
Fun > Realism

So I am probably the absolute most against the new tank buff. I have about 4mil SP. Fundamentally, I LOVED ambush and domination....in 1.6. I have to admit, more than 50% of the time there isn't anything we can do.
The only strats I found that have any effect are:
1) So i like to flux them and see if they freak out and runaway. At least a third of the time they do. On the other hand, sometimes team members see me do it and even without a mic they re-spawn with swarm launchers and wait for me to flux them again.
2) I have a speed build whose soul purpose is to get to rail guns (on pre turret deployed maps or ones that have quick deployements) and hack them and destroy what I can
3) sometimes I use them as cover to get close to enemy front lines and by just distracting a tank can be enough for someone else to take it out somehow or to at least take out a fair number of enemies. I frustrated someone so much on a FW that he got out to kill me but was able to kill him and steal his tank.
4) In one game there was an enemy squad in an ambush match that dropped nanohives and they just launched AV's in succession non stop and took out all of our vehicles until they had their's out. |
