The issue I have with jihad jeeps isn't so much that they kill me it's the no risk big reward. BPO LAV+BPO suit you can swap at a supply depot to keep your remote suit = 0 ISK potentially 0 sp (do you need any skills for LP/Aurum remotes). You get a big reward enemy ISK lost has something to do with pay out so your 0 ISK could get you more ISK. It is incredibly easy to do slap some remotes on and crash into a tank. Remove the ability to stick remotes to BPO LAV's and for remotes to do damage if the suit is not equipped then you have the risk of losing thousands of ISK. Then only allow detonation if you hit a certain parts all other spots will have to thick hull. There you have risk, reward and a skill factor.

Tanks are also practically No Risk All Reward.
So I have no problem that one out of their 2 counters is the same...

I am sorry but I am a tanker on this account myself. If you are not paying enough attention to blast that enemy LAV driving towards you then that is your tough luck and perfectly valid. The fact that it costs the enemy little to no isk is a side issue totally.
Honestly I kill more of these guys than those that kill me with this tactic. I would say something like for every 5-10 Jihad Jeeps I kill, 1 gets through or manages to surprise me.
(You can always tell if the LAV was stacked with explosives because you get the +5`s from equipment destruction.) |

I totally disagree. Sure, there are a few rounds where you go 20-0 but most are about engaging other tanks so your troops can secure objectives. You can easily lose a million ISK in a round tanking. This never happens as an infantry. Skill Point payouts tend to be less too.

Just because I want a fix to jihad jeeps doesn't mean I don't want a buff to AV and/or a price increase to tanks to be attached to that.

If those are your feelings then why hate the jihad jeep?
What if I use one instead of the swarms and AV nades that I've invested over 2 million SP in that is similar to a nat fart?

What about the players that are invested into RES and dont have a BPO LAV?...Its logical to switch into a Starter Fit before to save some isk...well for players like me who dont have a isk printing machine.
Also its pretty easy to shoot them before they reach you cause the only viable area of the tank is the front and sides...the back is used like a ramp if you try to ram into that. If your having issues with them get better as a tanker and watch your surroundings instead of just trying to murder everything you see without thought cause you think your are safe in a tank.

I hardly use the easy mode blaster I hit people once with a rail a FK'ing railgun verses jeep and they survive the shot WTF I kill basically all with blaster but I like skill weapons so I use rail and missiles that can't turn fast enough to kill you. I have 47 million sp how from saving ISK and grinding try it some time.

For the most part, jihad jeeps are for those who don't have av. Its the only thing I can do. Most of us don't have bpos. It costs me roughly 30k a jeep, and is far from fool proof. K have burned through 2-3 of these fits against tankers before getting a kill, sometimes more.
It takes a rail tank 2 shots to kill me, a blaster can kill me in about 5 seconds, infantry can kill me by getting lucky and shooting my remotes.
As all the bank scrubs and proto stompers tell me. Htfu get gud noon.
But no seriously, just try it, its not free and its not easy. You find me another militia or standard fit that can reliably kill a tank I'll do it, took then leave me and my 30k jeep alone.
And there are plenty of tanks that can absorb a jihad jeep. 3 remotes is a crap shoot, only militia scrub tanks get blown by one easily. Standard tanks take at least 4, sometimes 5 or 6 remotes, which requires team work. And if they see you coming and pop hardeners, well I'm going boom for no noticeable effect.

All I hear is blah blah blah..... Cheapest usable Sica will run you about 80k and I guarantee they will mot be in the TOP 5 unless the other team sucks. Then you would be running solo in your 200k suit and dying anyways.

If you don't have the skill to stop the Jeeps to save your expensive tank, don't play expensive tanks - switch to militia tanks until you get better neutralizing the Jeeps before they get to you. Where is a problem in there?
Oh, sht! I just learned you can make a signature! Thanks, CCP! Forums are getting better!

Where is a problem in there? So I have to use skill? I kill one 2-3 times he loses no ISK and kills me the fourth time and I go negative. I don't always run my most expensive tank never stated that I did. I try not to use broken things unlike you jihad jeepers I get it as a joke, I killed a tanker in my corp when I wound up on the other team and he pulled a jeep out to kill me I'd seen him die a dozen times and not pull one out but seriously as a crutch git gud. You tell me to git gud yet you can't even use proper AV to kill me.

Well to my 204 EHP scout, your ''OP'' railguns and jeeps are what keep this game playable vs Blaster/Missile tanks......

You tell me to git gud yet you can't even use proper AV to kill me.
You should probably cry about it more.

Jihad jeeps are more easy mode than tanks therefore tank are not EZ mode.

Well don't worry about it, it's been said it is being changed so people can't use this tactic any longer in 1.8 as it was an "unintentional side effect".
Personally I believe (even as a tanker myself) that it is a legit tactic HOWEVER they would need to find a way to tone it down and stop the 0 isk kills to tanks. Toning it down I don't mean just isk but the fact that it breaks the cardinal rule of any FPS, and that is dead before you have time to react.
CCP follows this tride and true method granted the TTK may be very low but you still have a split second or two, to react where as a jeep smashing into a tank it's poof dead zero time to react. That is what the roar is about from tanks currently. Again the tactic is sound just needs some adjusting if it is kept I think it would be a perfectly legit method of AV pending it takes say two fully loaded jeeps to kill a tank would be suitable. Well that and do something about the no isk thing like perhaps if you change suits your RE's disappear or something like that.

When there are 6 tanks on the field or a tanker going 25-0 in his tank I will Jihaad the **** out of them. Tank spam has to be put in check. And for the record for every 2 tanks I suicide bomb at least one of them gets a lucky shot and sets of my explosives early.
I use proxies, forge guns, and whatever else I feel fit to take down a tank. The mistake is thinking you're untouchable. I'll find a a way to crack that shell and feed those gooey innards to the infantry.
Next to supply depo I will switch out my suit and yes spend absolutely 0 ISK destroying your tank! Sleep tight.
Edit: As for the suit change. A BPO Sever suit has 3 equipment slots. 3 different RE slots. I guess I can justify the loss of the explosives cost.
We can pickle that.

LOL beaver go for it I'll just have to grab my almost 7k shield tank just for you then :p So when you go smashy into me and die I can retreat and switch tanks lol. You have the right line of thinking though people just don't want to adapt. The old saying is true adapt or die.
A great example of this is people using swarms on a shield tank. Don't even waste your time all you will get from me is a "oh how cute a swarm launcher" lol. Forge is for Shields, Swarms are for Armor, etc etc and lets not forget about AV nades including flux grenades which not nearly enough people are smart enough to actually use.

Verses tank spam acceptable because tank spam is broken but I've been the only damn tank in an FW verses 3 enemy tanks and a PRO FG and I get jihad jeeped like WTF. just one guy going 25 git gud and kill him respectably.

If a proximity didn't detonate "On Contact" then we there would be some serious problems.

Benjamin Ciscko wrote:The issue I have with jihad jeeps isn't so much that they kill me it's the no risk big reward. BPO LAV+BPO suit you can swap at a supply depot to keep your remote suit = 0 ISK potentially 0 sp (do you need any skills for LP/Aurum remotes). You get a big reward enemy ISK lost has something to do with pay out so your 0 ISK could get you more ISK. It is incredibly easy to do slap some remotes on and crash into a tank. Remove the ability to stick remotes to BPO LAV's and for remotes to do damage if the suit is not equipped then you have the risk of losing thousands of ISK. Then only allow detonation if you hit a certain parts all other spots will have to thick hull. There you have risk, reward and a skill factor.
EDIT: Just because I want this because doesn't mean I don't want AV to be more viable and tank prices to be higher but I don't want to have balanced tanks with imbalanced jihad jeeps.
Yeah, and sometimes a proto heavy gets a Dren Shotgun to the back of the head.

A bpo fit can kill a 200+K suit, so what's your proposed fix for that? that BPO suit can't run 3x faster than you and kill you on contact.
But that's not the point of your thread. Your whole deal is about risk vs reward and how someone can risk nothing while being rewarded for it.

Just the other day I took out three Jihad Jeeps that were trying to take out my Blaster Soma I was using to help a pack of infantry push an objective (as opposed to solo-raoming with it).
The first one was coming at me from my left and I turned just in time to notice it and shot at it, causing the REs on the front to explode.
The second one, I shot the REs on the front when he unintentionally Dukes of Hazard-ed through my line of fire while supressing some infantry. (That one had me near rolling).
The third he tried to come at me from behind, but from his first attempt I was wary and heard his LAV circling around behind me, so I again shot it and took it out.
Moral of the story: If you keep your situational awareness, they can be countered.
If you're in the middle of a fight with another tank, yeah, it can be hard to keep your awareness up for LAVs when you're focusing on the enemy armor, but it's almost no different than some bastard with a rail ruining your honorable tank duel with enemy #1.

The first one was coming at me from my left and I turned just in time to notice it and shot at it, causing the REs on the front to explode.
The second one, I shot the REs on the front when he unintentionally Dukes of Hazard-ed through my line of fire while supressing some infantry. (That one had me near rolling).
The third he tried to come at me from behind, but from his first attempt I was wary and heard his LAV circling around behind me, so I again shot it and took it out.
Moral of the story: If you keep your situational awareness, they can be countered.
If you're in the middle of a fight with another tank, yeah, it can be hard to keep your awareness up for LAVs when you're focusing on the enemy armor, but it's almost no different than some bastard with a rail ruining your honorable tank duel with enemy #1. I am aware I have squad members telling me when they drop and where they are but I tend to use a slow moving rail or missile your using an easy mode blaster which is as I said easy mode but I have to sink like 9 out of 12 missiles into them or two rails while you only have to land 3-4 of the fastest firing fastest rotation speed turret.

So I have no problem that one out of their 2 counters is the same... I totally disagree. Sure, there are a few rounds where you go 20-0 but most are about engaging other tanks so your troops can secure objectives. You can easily lose a million ISK in a round tanking. This never happens as an infantry. Skill Point payouts tend to be less too.
My proto scout fitting says you can easiliy burn 1 mill as infantry as well... |

You get a big reward enemy ISK lost has something to do with pay out so your 0 ISK could get you more ISK. It is incredibly easy to do slap some remotes on and crash into a tank. Remove the ability to stick remotes to BPO LAV's and for remotes to do damage if the suit is not equipped then you have the risk of losing thousands of ISK. Then only allow detonation if you hit a certain parts all other spots will have to thick hull. There you have risk, reward and a skill factor.
EDIT: Just because I want this because doesn't mean I don't want AV to be more viable and tank prices to be higher but I don't want to have balanced tanks with imbalanced jihad jeeps.
Hhahahahahhah heheheheeheheeh huff huff gasp, Buhhahahahaha, OMG, I can....can't breathe.... se....seri.....seriously. GULP, hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah. I am sorry. let me compose myself. F*** YOU, wait wait, that was rude, let me try it again......... F*** YOU. See right there, that isn't a proper response for the forums.
What I mean good sir, it that tanks are insanely cheap (I can lose 3 of them and break even) low risk, you only have to worry about railgun installations and other tanks, infantry is a joke, jihad jeeps are a joke if you die from them you can't hit anything and have no situational awareness. And lastly, they are insanely dicky to play, well,,,,,,,,,,, how everyone plays them anyways, go around blow up all installations, then supply depots, then CRUs. Once you have mined the entire map of points or IF YOU LOSE YOUR TANK, most people just quit playing them. And then what do the rest of us have left as defenses, you blew up our installations, you blew up our supply depots to change fits, and I can't land anything cause we are outnumbered 4 to 0 tanks. Cause you all are greedy d*cks. So I drop in a LAV hopefully before someone blows it and try to level the playing field. Its not like my Ant-Armor fit is going to do anything. |

Sorry dude... You wont be getting much sympathy from the dust community here. In all the matches I have played more than 50% of them involved 4 or more red tanks on the field and more than 30% involved having 6 red tanks on the field.
I played an ambush match last night at Manus Peak and 4 tanks got dropped in. Can you imagine how big a pole up your arse that is?
Talk about no risk and huge reward being a tanker is where it is at now.

Another no-fun OP who hates emergent gameplay. The only thing broken about this is the existence of BPO LAVs. I, for one, Jihad Jeep at ~40k. And, in contrast to intended AV, losing that money is the intended outcome of Jihad Jeeps. The tactic is balanced by the fact that it's a suicide attack. Once AV is rebuffed, it will be far less appealing, because a good AV player can actually kill multiple vehicles without using a full fit, a clone and an LAV. |

I don't always run my most expensive tank never stated that I did.

You tell me to git gud yet you can't even use proper AV to kill me.
Don't make a fool out of yourself. I have not used ANY LAV since beta. If someone sees holes in your argument it's surely because they stand to personally benefit in the nerf wars, right? So effing juvenile. I think your comments are very telling about what kinda guy you are and what your posts mean. When you pay to win and run OP sh!t you lose your right to 'git gud' anyone
Back to the topic. In this game you have free starter fits that in theory should be good enough to take out proto suits if the person wearing one has good gun game. Jihad jeeps are the same way.
Oh, sht! I just learned you can make a signature! Thanks, CCP! Forums are getting better!

But unfortunately that is what is has come to now that our anti vehicle weapons do nothing but tickle the militia tanks not to mention the actual tankers who use Gunlogis and Madrugars.

So we don't need AV to kill tanks, which is why it got nerfed.
Can't use jihad jeeps, because they're one hit kill tanks.
I guess that means OBs are out, because they can kill tanks pretty quickly too.
Militia rail tanks are out as well, because they're cheap and kill tanks easily.
I guess I could always grind 15 mil SP and become a real tanker to kill tanks?
I'm not sure what other options are left |

Are you finding that you and your fellow tanker friends over psychological compensating by having to have the biggest GUN in the game?
Or is it your incessant need to stare at something phallic (the tank turret) all day that reassures you?

As far as AV goes the swarms suck but forges do the trick. I killed 4 tanks and 3 drop ships solo in a DREN suit one damage mod in a match yesterday. They quit bringing out tanks AV works you just have to have a good spot to set up. I do not think tanks are OP! Some tankers are smarter than others. They think they are OP. As far as LAVs with REs all is fair I see nothing wrong with it. It is a great tactic. Bottom line you don't like something you WILL HAVE TO CHANGE YOUR TACTICS OR YOU WILL DIE. It is the way of New Eden if you haven't figured that out by now there is no hope for you. BTW I die all the time to militia shotguns on dragonfly suits my logi is almost 300k isk I just respawn and watch my back |

BPO LAV+BPO suit you can swap at a supply depot to keep your remote suit = 0 ISK potentially 0 sp (do you need any skills for LP/Aurum remotes). You get a big reward enemy ISK lost has something to do with pay out so your 0 ISK could get you more ISK. It is incredibly easy to do slap some remotes on and crash into a tank. Remove the ability to stick remotes to BPO LAV's and for remotes to do damage if the suit is not equipped then you have the risk of losing thousands of ISK. Then only allow detonation if you hit a certain parts all other spots will have to thick hull. There you have risk, reward and a skill factor.
EDIT: Just because I want this because doesn't mean I don't want AV to be more viable and tank prices to be higher but I don't want to have balanced tanks with imbalanced jihad jeeps. GULP* SLURP* GULP*LOL LET THE SWEET TEARS FLOW. Never mind the fact that you get all the war points out of every Skirmish blowing up Neutral turrets......HAHAHAHAHAHaaaa Let the crying begin.My latest victim btw.AH the delicious Butthurtery. Are you finding that you and your fellow tanker friends over psychological compensating by having to have the biggest GUN in the game? Or is it your incessant need to stare at something phallic (the tank turret) all day that reassures you? Never fear my Vaginal friend.I WILL CONTINUE.HAHHAHAHAHAAAAAA https://forums.dust514.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=138665&find=unreadEDIT: Also please spare me your 0 risk huge reward theory as you sit on the redline firing the only weapon that shoots 600m.Please HTFU & STFU
All of the above except the butthurtery part..... I have plenty of ISK so essentially infinite tanks.
I do like staring at the massive phallic shapped canon oft time wondering how something so ***** like can lay waste to so many people..... I do also like having the biggest gun on the map...it comes from a complex in EVE where I can only pilot small ships well and everyone else has bigger guns.
