Judge, I like you and I like what you do with your videos for the community but...

Not content with the general non-consensus in your other thread so you decide to create a new one?
The only thing I will concede is that the red line is the bane of your problems. Would you agree?

Those rail tanks can only hit you when you are at a low angle and out at range, once you come in close you can barrage them to death should you so desire.

That's only if they aren't in the redline, but that's where 90% of them reside.

....Once the red line rail sica is gone....

i have read severall of these Rail tanks ruin my dropship game threads , and to be honest as a tanker and a pilot I haven't had as bad a time as you seem to have had lol , 2 hardners and 1 shield booster will let you tank pretty much any thing for a short time period in your python giving you time to get away and recall , maby just maby to take care of the red line threat????
Once the red line rail sica is gone just call back in your ship and bobs a monkeys aunty your in the air again simples. this is a dynamic game with dynamic battlefields that require you to be able to adapt to what ever is thrown at you.

So never then.

Hmm i prefer having 2.5 k shield then 1.5k

ill bet you my fit has a much higher effective hp than yours.

whats your fit
mine
Adv heavy shied extender
Pro Hardener
Adv booster

whats your fit
mine
Adv heavy shied extender
Pro Hardener
Adv booster

My booster is pro
Pro hardener
Adv heavy extender
At missiles

2 complex shield hardeners and a complex light shield booster , I can run 60% resists for 1 minute and with a complex light shield booster I can regen all my shields 2wice during that cycle. so 1.5k with 60% resists gives aprox 3.3k ehp and with the ability to reboost 2wice that gives me 9.9k ehp over the span of 60 seconds with a 12 second cool down period.

If you're going to dumb down the rail turret better give me a mortar turret, cause I ain't dealling with mosquitoes with proto missiles and damg mods dropping infrabtry and droplinks on glichted places up high.

So long that keeps happening I'll be laying on a rock in the redline aiming at the stars.

Speaker you say I want tanks nerfed. but all I requested was that the Devs let us know if the consider them an issue or not because many do. btw if you reed the sticky on recent topics the Devs are looking into militia tanks already. But there are many changes that would fix the issues without nerfing a tanks ability. Map changes for example.

What I want is fair balance. currently the greater number in the community agree that rail tanks need a balance pass. this does not mean a nerf. in fact what would be a nerf in your eyes? for example if they reduced range but increased your elevation? Is that a nerf? Or if they doubled your range? Is that a nerf? A change may make your tank different in some way but not less effective at completing is role, just reduce it from being too effective in too many engagement types.

A lot of people have said they feel rail tanks have an unfair advantage over other vehicles and infantry too. Many find that the game is made less enjoyable by them. it's not about hitting rid of threats but making fighting them fun .

So here is the simple question.... Do you think rail tanks do not need any changes? If they do not need a change then explain why so we can make sure we are not asking for changes that ruin the game for rail tankers either. I play tanks and infantry. In my experiance I feel I have an unfair advantage in my tank.

sorry, judge, but these posts CCP always blow their noses on. the last vehicle thread had 30+ pages on it and every single thing in that thread was ignored.

as much of a downer I am, i really tried holding out for hope on this game.

Soon someone will take the concept of dust and do it right.

OHKO is fine, but at 400k isk a ship it gets to be a little obnoxious. Would you like your tanks to be OHKO?

If ADS drop in price or increase in HP it could generate a lot of frustration in ground forces.
