DUST Search - Tank spam in ambush has got to STOP

This is coming from a tank driver btw

Rant
That ******* tank spam in ambush has got to stop already!!!! Seriously, once a team of ******* scrubs decides to call in 7 tanks it's just over. The enemy team has no way of calling a tank in to kill those enemy tanks. Trust me, I tried. I managed to kill 3 tanks before the other 4 swarmed me and killed me. Ambush is the ONLY GAME MODE WHERE I HAVE THIS PROBLEM!!!! It's not even fun for the infantry on the winning team!!! Even ******* spawning becomes impossible due to the freaking scanners on the madrugars that just light up the entire ******* map. If you come and tell me that the bloody spam is fine then you are: a) an idiot. or b) a scrubby tank spammer. I CAN'T EVEN CALL MY OWN TANK IN BECAUSE THE FUCKS ON THE ENEMY TEAM ARE SWARMING THE ENTIRE MAP!!! /end rant

Solution
Limiting both teams at 2 tanks each will solve the problem. Keep in mind that this is only for ambush, other gamemodes have redlines where calling in your own tanks and setting up a counter attack is possible. Besides, tanks rarely get spammed in dom and skirm, it only in ambush that the problem is persistent (and extremely aggravating).

This post is just a bunch of people getting mad because they want everything to go there way. This game has no rules and no limits. IF you want a game with limitations and rules bf4 and cod are best for you.

Get a militia minmatar scout with a rail/combat rifle, basic remote explosives, either 2 enhanced armor or 1 enhanced and 1 basic armor plates, basic packed AV grenades, and advanced nova knives. It's fun and challenging to pop the militia noobs. Just wait for them to appear to be shooting long range, put some REs on their back, throw a packed AV grenade for assurance, and detonate the RE when they freak out. It might he harder to do if they are armor tanked, so you might have to use all 3 grenades. You try doing that when there is a tank cluster and they all have scanners Woah. You pass.

That way the main counter to tanks is two person Kiteing LAV's... that can track the HAV while driving in circles. Risk vs reward baby

You should be more upset with those whom you were paired with than the system it's self . This dude has it right. I love ambush right now for the possibilities for target practice. I don't know about you, but I feel like I never get enough time to really hone my skills with aiming and AV. Now I do. I can spam a low cost AV grenadier with RE or just a hive, and chase away most tanks by myself. What I really like though, is running a Commando suit with Swarms. I can have a rifle and AV at the same time, and that is the way that all the matches will all soon be. Vehicle spam throughout the different types of matches will soon be the normal. As it should be in the future of warfare. Yes, people have agility and dexterity to enter the buildings, but one good tanker can hold a point forever. So what makes more sense.

Basically, you are saying, I should be able to use my tank, but everyone else should not ? When i deploy, i just call in 3-5 Havs of my own then let them stand there until some berries find em and distract the enemy teams, its pretty ISK efficient. Dying 7 times in a 200k proto suit because of Enormous Tank spam on the opponent side = 1.4m ISK lost Dying 0 times in a 200k proto suit because the opposing team has trouble killing my 500k ISK value of tanks making their life impossible = Priceless Tankers wanted tanks on the field, they got it ....we infantry will play ball and adapt + HTFU!

BigStuarty Endless Hatred 0	Posted - 2014.01.03 21:30:00 - [45] - Quote Easy add a new ambush mode... vehicle enabled or vehicle fre. I wonder what will populate. Its 2 obvious issues, militia hav. too cheap and easy and secondly the av nerf. Though if ambush goes vehicle free... back to the proto stomps lol...eh Rei ;) But seriously gameplay is getting seriously harmed.
