Necandi Brasil DUST BRASIL S.A Covert Intervention 614	Posted - 2013.12.28 16:34:00 - [1] - Quote Because otherwise I will just move on... Tanks 514! Cheap, fast, Indestrucbible and you see tankers telling it's balanced... Just makes you want to quit this BS
Vanven Horizons' Edge 0	Posted - 2013.12.28 16:41:00 - [2] - Quote I m with you on this rather inconsistent matter.... Back then, It was all based on skill and strategy despite the game being rather "new-born" through releases of patches, in which has indeed empowered us dust players to longer satisfy this game to the greatest. I've jut finished couple matches recently (Skirmish, Ambush, Domination, as well as Faction Warfare) and I will have to say....I have witnessed such discomfort in which 6 or more tanks are roaming around the battlefield (better yet, camping people). Missiles alone are challenging to take down a single tank. People are truly over-using tanks far too much, let alone it is more sad to see players leave knowing such outcome is a waste. This is indeed too ridiculous......tanks are perhaps the most overpowered vehicles in this game
Flix Keptick Red Star. EoN. 3181	Posted - 2013.12.28 17:06:00 - [3] - Quote ... and play something other than ambush Just kidding, at least write a small justification in your post. Lack of content makes stuff broken... Tank driver // specialized tank destroyer
Ghosts Chance Inf4m0us 612	Posted - 2013.12.28 17:16:00 - [4] - Quote i beat tank spam and SO CAN YOU! its called maintaining perimiter defence and rolling in a squad. this isnt to say that tanks arnt a problem right now, somethings definatly not quite right. but in the meantime while you wait for a fix.... kill the damn things. HIGH alpha damage is key, thats why remote explsives and prox traps are FOTM tank detroyers. spend a few points into demolitions for remote explosives and proxes and you will find that they go boom quite nicly
Necandi Brasil DUST BRASIL S.A Covert Intervention 615	Posted - 2013.12.28 17:26:00 - [5] - Quote Have you played with Blueberries Ghosts ? Half of them have trouble even moving... the other half can't move... Yes ... I destroy many Tanks each match, but infantry only guys like myself are not enjoying the game anymore. 90% of the time I spengt playing is runnning from tanks... I can't use AV nades because they are useless... If I use Swarms they are useless... I can only defeat another tank with a tank... And I will have to pray for it to get to the ground fast enough, otherwise it will be picked by enemy tanks... I'm sorry, I really respect tankers and all... but this is not what a MMOFPS game should be like Tanks 514! Cheap, fast, Indestrucbible and you see tankers telling it's balanced... Just makes you want to quit this BS
Sir Snugglz Red Star. EoN. 212	Posted - 2013.12.28 17:31:00 - [6] - Quote I dont mind it. everytime they bring out a tank I just pop them.... over and over and over.... until the match ends.

Infantry combat is useless right now, just spam tanks first and you will win ! I'm with you. Just waiting for some word from CCP, but there must be some kind of gag order. I assume most of the devs are on vacation until after the new year, so I'm trying to be patient. I'm playing pretty minimal right now, and if not for this event, wouldn't be playing at all. So sick of hearing how someone out there beat a tank. It doesn't matter. It's so far unbalanced it's not worth trying. There's no gratification to beating a tank because 10 seconds later it's back. Please give tanks some balance

The Robot Devil Molon Labe. Public Disorder. 1346	Posted - 2013.12.28 17:45:00 - [11] - Quote Two AV mercs can keep any HAV away from infantry with continued damage and if the HAV isn't destroyed then it is sent running from the fight. All mercs should skill into prox mines and deploy three in the common places HAV drive. It will get the kill and pilots will not enter the kill box after the second HAV pops. I have two sets of advanced prox mines and a set of standard on a min logi, I can set 8 mines at once. I think there are 5 750 dmg prox and 3 500 for a grand total of 5200 dmg, I try to use the plasma cannon to knock the first 1300 off of them and chase them over the prox. I also like to rush the HAV throwing AV nades and dropping the prox on the HAV. Sometimes it works better than others but it is always fun. I think I am going to go start a AV squad right now. No sympathy for the devil; keep that in mind. Buy the ticket, take the ride.
TheAmazing FlyingPig Crux Special Tasks Group Gallente Federation 5153	Posted - 2013.12.28 17:47:00 - [12] - Quote Tanks aren't the problem. ****** AV players that refuse to adapt are. I made a thread yesterday on how I went on a tank hunting spree with a nanohive and some standard AV grenades. There was no "tactics and strategy" for AV pre-1.7; if you saw a tank, it took a sneeze in its general direction to take it, and its buddies, out. Never forget How to fix the Logi

Infantry combat is useless right now, just spam tanks first and you will win ! What's a tank? Oh you mean those things that are giant metal murdering machines that take no SP to use and cost 1/3 of my suit? Raise the cost and the tank spam will die down. TBH 60k ISK for one tank is far too cheap. I'd rather not see them go back up to 800k a piece though, there has to be some middle ground. Or just make AV viable again. After all militia AV should be able to take out militia tanks. Sick of using proto AV on militia tanks only to get mowed down by them and lose 200-300k ISK just to cost the tanker 60k.

Please give tanks some balance

I think you are missing the point... many players, myself included, DO NOT WANT to play AV. We want to play for the infantry combat, but so little of that happens now since everyone is forced to run AV. Also, it has to be said that when you have 4 good tankers on the field, it costs your team 8-10 players to try to keep them in check. Which means you have 6-8 infantry left to deal with their 12 infantry, and those 12 infantry on their side get to spend the match farming AV players and the infantry running from the tanks. And that's IF your whole team is smart and organized. If it isn't, those tanks will camp every spawn point they can find and farm every bolas and vehicle you call in to counter them while the infantry line up on the redline waiting for someone stupid enough to push up. Currently, the only way to run a 100% successful AV squad is to have at least one rail tanker and at least one proto forge gunner in your squad. Otherwise, it's just not worth the ISK you loose running RE's on a suit survivable enough to make it close to a tank. Unfortunately, I may just be with the OP on this one. I will still likely cap out, but I after that I may just have to sit out of Dust until this mess is fixed. Buff passive scans & fix TTK!

I can destroy one tank and another one would appear behind me and kill me, My proto swarms alone costs the same thing as a highly armored tank... I have 700 HP max If I put ALL into armor, won't be able to move though... Tank has 5000 + HP and can kill me if I take 4-6 rounds ... It will take me 6 shots (IF he doesn't run away...) to kill it with PROTO swarms that are dumb and take an eternity to lock on... Seems balanced... Tanks 514! Cheap, fast, Indestrucbible and you see tankers telling it's balanced... Just makes you want to quit this BS

Joe Macro Legion of Eden Covert Intervention 3	Posted - 2013.12.28 19:42:00 - [23] - Quote Its true that tanks ARE still killable. But the numbers are really taking away from the game. Its making the real tankers look bad. As it is now anyone can jump in a tank and make a mess of things. First match of the day (Domination), I go in and drop uplink links, then see there probably 4 tanks on the ground. So I call in a tank too and I am no tanker. Drive to the other side of map and start shooting tanks, got 2 and one assist before I got killed. Come back in game, get a few kills, in between dodging red line snipers and tank fire. Get killed and come back as "Hunter Assault" to go after the snipers. Again, run to other side of map. Cant pick up the snipers with my scanner, but their hives show up :). Run into red line, throw granades into sniper nest. Kill two snipers. On the way out of redzone...I get killed by.....A TANK. I hid for the remainer of game cause it was almost over. We lost, but I got top of leader board with only 7 kills. My points mostly came from uplinks (so many people spawning back in from getting killed by TANKS) :) Running around this place... Like Clint Eastwood in space.

If you keep up on the tank threads you will see. It was bragging about how good they are. Then came tankers point of view on how to defeat tanks. A week of trying to sluff it off on MLT tanks. Now they are saying limit hardeners. There have been tankers talking **** this whole time who don't really know what's going on. I want tanks to be a specialty where good pilots thrive and bad pilots burn. There was a time we fought good tankers. Now we just fight good tanks.
CharCharOdell 1865	Posted - 2013.12.28 20:42:00 - [28] - Quote Infantry need webifiers. 1 proto av and 1 webifier av should be able to take down any tank. Just being honest. I also agree that tanks r too easy. I have no problem killing them BC I'm a tanker since forever, but every time I'm NOT the tanking we lose BC nobody.on my team wants to play AV. I also feel that having low HP gunships with large turrets could solve the tank spam BC they would annhiliate tanks and forges would kill them.
