Spent the majority of the match in a Scout suit getting behind this Rail Tanker who was spawn camping the outpost in an Ambush match. Threw three remote explosives on his back end and detonated. It didn't kill him and he actually had his armor repairer recover the damage, not dying once that entire round.
So my question is: Considering the level of difficulty there is just to get the damned things -on- the tank... Should Remote Explosives outright kill them with just three?
Things to consider:
- Tanks, like all vehicles, have third person view. Depending on the playstyle, this makes it nigh impossible to 'sneak up' on a tank.
- Higher tiered remote explosives do allow you to have more active at once but only the Prototype remote explosives allow you to carry more than three at any given time.
- 1.7 recently implemented the ability to stick remote explosives to objects, including vehicles, so the ground work is already present.

Pics or it didn't happen.

I Can shoot a mercenary in the foot or center mass... the efficacy doesn't really change on the damage I do until a headshot(Yes very silly).
Tanks are kinda the same with the back of the tank the weakest area.. If tanks had hit boxes placed on their Tracks area and engine area... so when a RE is placed or explodes around that area it does x6 damage or w/e then it would work nice.
I would prefer Proximity mines to be more of a focus for AV then Remotes by FAR any day. Proximities are more tactics based and defensive based. And it makes more sense for roles of what a tank is and what infantry do in securing positions.
Edit* The Key factor around proximities is when a tank drives into field and dies... they know exactly whos fault it was.
I dunno, there's a lot of strategy and tactics involved in sneaking up on a tank that has a third person camera which can clearly see you putting the RE's on them if they have even the faintest sense of spatial awareness.

I think I'd notice the bright yellow-orange glow of hardeners being on, lol.

Just charge it to the crappy game with spawnkilling and unbalanced weapons/vehicles.

This was a Madrugar, no hardeners. Shrugged it off, drove off the cliff, back to the redline to fight another day.
