Instant fix to tanker problem Twisted

What "tanker problem"?

There is no tanker problem. Only a bad infantry player problem.

Exactly!

Anyone playing infantry is doing it horribly, horribly wrong. If you're not in a tank at this point, you're an idiot. Roll

Nope, but you're a bad player when you're not dealing with tanks in an appropriate manner while playing as infantry.

At no point in the history of warfare has infantry been considered "effective" at anti-armor. They have had some means to destroy tanks yes, but most of them relied on using the weaknesses of tanks in some way.

Only other kinds of artillery/tanks ever had a chance at taking on tanks in a head-on fight.

So it is like it is now in dust. Infantry has some means to take down tanks, but other tanks/artillery are still number one when it comes to taking down other tanks. Just like it should be (because anything else would make no sense)

Infantry has some means to take down tanks, but other tanks/artillery are still number one when it comes to taking down other tanks. Just like it should be (because anything else would make no sense) Please tell me of these weaknesses tanks have, last I checked they haveno blind spot, can swivel their turrent as fast as any infantry can run (cept scouts) can maneuver over rough terrain easier then the LAV, can reduce their damage taken, and travel faster then my LAV most of the time. Personally if we are going to discuss tanks as only weak to other tanks and artillay, I want some artillery! Make us a man portable indirect fire weapon, give us mortars! Put them in an av and a to infantry shrapnel form too. And obviously nonen of these tankers have seen what a paladin can do. More or less since tanks were around militaries have devised to one shot kill or disable these weapons, usually using infantry, as infantry (outside dust of course) can more easily out maneuver tanks, and more easily hit their weak spots (which would be the treads, turrents, and rear, as well as the ammo storage area)
Korvin Lomont United Pwnage Service RISE of LEGION 451	Posted - 2014.01.12 11:25:00 - [67] - Quote Hmm instead of giving them a general buff I would rather like to see a reasonable damage gain through tiers and maybe 5% damage per level of skill. This way you need SP invested in RE's for beeing able to (more) easily kill HAVs. So maybe: std 1500 adv 1650 Pro 1800 And with max Skills std 1875 adv 2062 pro 2250 BTW My numbers are more random, they just should underline my point...
Sana Rayya WASTELAND JUNK REMOVAL Top Men. 709	Posted - 2014.01.12 11:35:00 - [68] - Quote Perhaps a more elegant solution would be to give REs two damage values - the current 1500 HP for splash, and a higher amount for direct damage (when something is actually touching the RE). That way players can do extra damage when placing REs directly on tanks or detonating them right as tanks roll over them, and damage to infantry remains the same.
