I agree tanks are a lot of fun right now. Any one asking for a price raise on militia tanks are just jerks who think games should be a second job.

I am a tanker who doesn't think that 80k mlt tanks are fine, I don't think rails, damage mods or extenders are working properly. I think blasters should have lower RoF but higher damage per shot to prevent them from being quite so devastating to infantry. I want infantry to perform a little better versus tanks.

I think mlt tanks are a crutch.

I agree with you about the Damage mods but I see that as an overall game issue as it works poorly for both infantry and vehicles and lowering the firerate and increasing the damage on blasters won't really change much I mean yes it shoots slower however each shot would do more damage so the overall dps wouldn't really change hell it would take less shots to kill infantry see the issue there it would have to be a big drop in rate of fire with only a small increase to damage and doing that would make a blaster tank unable to kill another tank

Now for railguns I don't really see an issue the biggest problem with it isn't the gun but the people so many use the militia tanks with damage mods and a militia railgun and this is actually the issue and as I said before damage mods are a overall game issue they have always made things unbalanced in some way and in this case which is pretty common even in the old builds makes the railgun seem op now I have a maddy with a proto railgun no damage mods and it takes AT LEAST 5 shots if not more to weaken or kill a gunnlogi or a maddy with hardners on and since militia tanks have same hp they can last pretty long too but thats if they got hardners so you see the issue is the damage mods well that and the idiots redlining but I tend to hunt them with my tank anyway and I'm sorry dropship pilots but it's an anti-vehicle weapon it's gonna hurt so I would advise you to stay alert if you want to live same thing to a shield tank

If a shield vehicle player was more alert and payed attention by looking at the overview map alot he wouldn't be caught off guard and would preform just as well as any armor vehicle player
