Tanks, they're just too cheap and too fast. Anyone who has been in a match where the enemy team spawns tank after tank after tank, and no matter how many you destroy they just keep spawning, knows how ridiculous this is. Tanks shouldn't be cheaper than any 3 of my proto weapons. The tactical advantage should be reflected in the price. They should feel the loss of their tank. I feel that tanks ( and dropships ) should be sponsored more by the corporations than the individual mercenary. What mercenary can or should be able to have an almost endless supply of high end battle vehicles?
How is it possible that a tank can outrun an lav? This just isn't right. It would be like if i could make my heavy outrun a scout. And not just outrun, but pass him like he's walking. The whole point of the lav is for it to be quickest, most maneuverable vehicle on the ground. Having a tank run you over from behind while you're driving at full speed on smooth flat ground is complete garbage.
Other than unlimited ammo and not having enough cpu and pg, what was wrong with 1.6 tanks? I've gone against plenty of really good tankers that had no problem with that build or the one before. The best tanker i played with and against, ishotcha 3, would get 30 kills in most matches and win 4/5 tank vs tank fights. He has stopped playing since this build came out.
How can people say a tank isn't a super slayer when they can kill 1/5 of the enemy clone count without losing a tank? Throw in another handful of tanks that are habitually respawned and you start to get a sense of how un-fun the game can become. Since they're as cheap as some proto suits and don't require nearly as much sp to make a decent slaying fit, anyone can become a super slayer.
Maybe the name of this game should be fixed too. I recommend ' eve: battle tanks edition ' since a large percentage of matches seem to hinge on who can field the most tanks first and keep them coming. |

The numbers should be something like this
Militia tanks ( unfitted ) 400 000
Standard ( unfitted ) 800 000
Advanced ( unfitted) 1 600 000
Proto ( unfitted) 3 200 000
On top of that modules should cost a hell of a lot more also
Tanks should be powerful as F but expensive as F also
With prices like that you would see 0 tanks... Prices might be too low right now but what you are suggesting is absurd
Tanks should be expensive. You're paying for tactical advantage on the battlefield. Lets get real, mercenaries shouldn't own tanks, or at least not so many, corporations should be paying for your tanks. |
