Since December 10th 2013 Dust has been awash with OP Tanks swarming the battlefield forcing infantry into small buildings whilst they speed around faster than LAV's around the perimeter picking off any infantry foolish enough to leave the confounds of the room they managed to sneak into.
So Please CCP tell us poor infantry when will the madness end ?
1.8 had better be the single greatest infantry update the world has ever seen .. you made the game super fun for a niche (Tankers) and ruined it for your mainstream player base (Infantry) .. no company has ever screwed over the vast majority of their customers to cater to the minority which is exactly what 1.7 did.
So the least you can do is tell us when the torture is going to end and give us a date of either our execution or our release

Pretty much.
Played 6 games earlier ..
- instantly quit 2 on manus peak (Tanks Tanks everywhere ,,, nowhere to hide) I completely avoid that map at the moment especially as I was playing solo...
-played 1 on the research lab with 2 points in a centre compound .. was fun .. up stairs in buildings fighting infantry whilst 5 Tanks drove around beneath us doing nothing as they had no one to kill ...
- Played 2 on the map with 3 points in the middle .. got triple protostomped in the 1st game ( 2 6 man proto squads from 1 corp and a 4 man squad from another corp) v 12 randoms and my squad of 4 (we lost 2 due to bugging out when starting battle) 2nd match was much better as we had a full compliment of 6 against another squad of 6 on the other team .. was close and again we fought in the compound where the Tanks couldn't do anything
- Played 1 on the 4 point research lab map and after getting to point A and seeing 4 enemy red tanks and getting killed I respawned in at B and got the entire Squad to fall back to B and defended the point for the whole match .. completely away from the Tanks who couldn't take B from us
Until Tanks and AV are fixed every match I go into I just go straight to the City or to an enclosed point with cover where You can avoid Tanks .. I don't even bother trying to win I just aim to hold that objective or hold the city compound and if we win it's more of a bonus rather than an aim .. I used to fight to win but now I just fight to avoid Tanks because I know that without 2/3 people with Proto AV there's F All infantry can do .. |

Read my post above yours before making a troll comment
I just stated that I don't play certain maps anymore (Manus Peak) because there is no cover for Infantry v Tank Spam and have changed how I play maps in general and just fight in the city/compounds or at objectives in buildings with cover .. eg I have adapted
This is nothing to do with how things 'used' to be .. this is about balance .. so basically any balance issue is automatically pining for the way things were in your opinion? If that's the case then quite frankly I do not want to hear any more of your opinions !!
Adapting to something that's broken doesn't change the fact that it is broken !!!! |

Read my earlier posts as I explained how I now play to avoid dying to Tanks ... just because I rarely get killed by them now after adapting doesn;t change that they are broken .. this is a really simple concept that even a moron like yourself must surely understand ...
Flaylocks used to be OP everyone adapted to them but it still didn't change the fact that they were OP and they got nerfed .. same with TAC AR's etc etc ...
This word 'adapting' is thrown around far to freely and is actually just a weak argument ... oh nooooooeeeesss both my arms and legs have been blown off help me please ... Adapt scrub .... but I have no arms and legs ... don't care .. You need to Adapt

Manus Peak has plenty of cover. And there's also a portion of the map that you should never ever trek across unless you're absolutely sure the way is clear.
Other than that, I have beat out tanks by running behind a rock or a small molehill. If you're still getting stomped by tanks, you doing something wrong.
Again, the tank problem isn't that bad. Increase your war wisdom.
1. You aren't a DEV
2. I never asked for your opinion or indeed anyone's opinion on this thread
3. I never asked for you to read this thread or like this thread
4. I never said I got killed by Tanks
5. I clearly stated that I quit Manus Peak because I was playing solo and as we all know by now you can't take out multiple tanks using ADV SLs by yourself you need teamwork
6. You beat out Tanks by hiding behind a hill .. you don't kill them or use any form of AV against them so how exactly are you beating them ?
7. In addition to point 6 if you aren;t actively attacking Tanks with AV then how on earth do you claim to know anything about Tanks and AV balance ??? You aren't using AV .. you''re hiding .. this ENTIRE POST is that hiding from Tanks shouldn't be the only option
I've seen you make alot of idiotic statements in the past on these forums but after speaking to you I can confirm that you are a moron .. I don't expect you to understand any of the points made in this post because as I have already concluded .. you are a moron .. but at the very least I hope someone else reads this replies and can explain it to you !

I would want someone to tell me to HTFU instead of being pampered. How are you a mercenary and you say adapting is a weak argument? LOL...good lord, too many daises trying to grow in concrete around here
Okay well in that case If you ever snap your neck and end up paralysed from the neck down instead of being sympathetic I'll say HTFU scrub
Stubbing your toe and whinging about it deserves a HTFU ... breaking your neck and becoming paralysed deserves understanding
Dying in 2 seconds instead of dying in 3 seconds and whinging about TTK deserves a HTFU ... having to completely avoid Tanks because they can't be killed except under 3 conditions being met 1. Bad Tanker 2. 3+ Players 3. Proto AV deserves understanding
Adapting is a weak argument because it is only applicable in a select few circumstances yet people like you seem to use it no matter what the complaint actually is ... adapting to a lower TTK .. sure it's only a slight change .. adapting to OP Tanks taking over the battlefield forcing infantry into hiding and fighting in remote buildings on the map .. Nope .. that's broken Infantry need to be able to force Tankers away using AV |

I don't cower in buildings all the time, in fact manus peaks is one of my favorite maps, and I roll infantry always. You think tanks are bad now? LOL, you haven't seen nothing. You would have never made it through the missile crisis back in codex, where tanks and dropships rained supreme over everything, and there was no escape. I was a fresh @$$ nood during those days, and through great personal pain I learned how to avoid tanks and dropships while still playing the game. I have mapped out all the covered routs on every map, and I pay very close attention to when it will be safe for me to move and when I can move freely as I see fit. You guys are whining to much about this stuff. HTFU! CCP said before 1.7 even dropped that this is only the first round in an overal vehicle rebalance, and that we were probably not going to like the way vehicles are in 1.7. The community as made their stance on how they feel about tanks quite clear. Now either quit your bitchin' and pla the game, or spare us all and just plain quit.
You didn't read my post ... Then I'm not going to bother reading yours either |

Nope .. that's broken Infantry need to be able to force Tankers away using AV I know a soldier who came home without any legs and said, "there's no sense of crying, just go ahead."I respect that. To say adapting is a weak argument is to say you have a weak mind. You can overcome any odds, hence why folks tell you to adapt.
Irrelevant but I'll explain my point using the example you just gave seeing as it is hopefully something you understand and I can show you my point using it ....
When he lost his leg in battle do you think the other infantryman/medic who found him whilst lying on the ground in agony having just lost his leg would say HTFU instead of trying to help ?
Sure when he found out he had lost his leg and he wouldn't get it back he adapted but that was adapting out of necessity not out of choice .. if he had the option to have his leg back do you think he'd say .. No I have adapted to losing my leg it's fine as it is ?? Of course not !!!
The fact is Tanks v AV is broken .. if it was irreparable and there was no possibility of it ever changing then yes .. we'd have no choice but to adapt as it wouldn;t be a temporary fix it would be a problem we'd have to deal with permanently however Tanks v AV balance .. CAN BE FIXED so why would I or anyone else be content with leaving it broken just because we've adapted ?
Thanks for providing me with that example as it made it easier for me to explain my point |

Son-Of A-Gun wrote:The community as made their stance on how they feel about tanks quite clear. Now either quit your bitchin' and play the game, or spare us all and just plain quit. Yep.
SL/AV Grenades/Forge Guns/Plasma Cannons are all infantry AV .. if only Proto Forge Guns can actually destroy Tanks without requiring a miracle then it's broken
You seem to think the only form of AV in the game is Forge Guns but their are actually SL/FG/PLC/AVG/PXM/RE's
When only FG and RE's (Proto of each may I add) are the only viable infantry AV against Militia/STD level Tanks they are broken ... it is impossible to argue otherwise and the fact that you 2 are even attempting to argue against it just shows how clueless you are about the issue
SL/PLC/AVG/PXM need to be buffed ...
Come at me with a better argument than ... Adapt or Die ... that isn't an argument it's a declaration of a lack substance to your point.
You sound like a really bad politician, constantly skirting around the questions being asked and instead throwing slogans around as if they are the answer to everything. I'm English we aren't so easily swayed, we want answers, information .. back those claims up with substance or at least be funny about it (like Boris Johnson .. he may be a useless politician but he is hilarious)

I HateMyFace wrote:I love this game but I wish we could go back to When the assault rifle did damage, anti - vehicle was relevant, assault was assault not logi assault, people used laser rifles, Newbies had a chance to start playing this game without getting completely raped, drop ships were used as drop ships instead of flying tanks, and even though there were only 4 suits they were semi balanced.
Sadly I think this game has already peaked xD
If CCP told you right now that the game would stay as it is now would you stay or go ???
Obviously I hope they fix everything and make the game better than it ever was back then but these past 2 months have made me reconsider ... what if CCP continue neglecting matchmaking, leave vehicles and AV as it is now ... what if this is what CCP wanted all along ?? NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

huh tell me again what the forums are for then??.. ohh wait to post opinions, give feedback on the game, request changes to the game.
and all of those are on a open forum where all players, devs and the GM's can read the posts and respond to them. And still he does not want our opinion.
sorry if you want no feedback from fellow players send a private e-mail directly to the DEVS and stop posting on the forums. because see the forums are open for comments and you will get them.
and sorry about shooting you with my blaster tank.. you just ran around in a circle and died so nicely. (sarcasm intended, but the actual kill has not... yet)
I usually ask for feedback/suggestions when I write a post directly to the community when discussing ideas or solutions or things i'd like to change in the game so I can get thoughts and maybe better solutions.
This post was a question to CCP about when 1.8 is likely to occur and seeing as you have no idea when that is what exactly do you have to offer to the discussion ? Nothing which is why all you basically did was make a troll post ..
This is why I stated that I didn't want peoples opinions .. you can't give an opinion to a question asking for specifics |

The 'Anti-Laz0r brigade' and let's not forget the 'NO NOOBTOOBS' brigade. Yet, here we are, with nades that instakill scouts, we used to have AV nades that could solo a proto tank.
So i'd say, this is the first time CCP has ever made a niche feel wanted. All through uprising it was 'wahh i no can ez-mode dem wiffout finkin cuz we ah big babbies' then guess what? Tanks get nerfd. AV buff after buff. True tankers(not me) got gud, and played with their now crumpled up toy. Ez-mode 'majority' didn't like people breaking the mold, stomping on their infantry stomps. So they cried again. Tank nerf, av buff.
Live with it.
Live with an unbalanced, poorly developed game because YOU say so ?

I'm not going to bother responding to anything else in your post as it's BS and irrelevant but I'll leave you with a quote
