Atiim Living Like Larry Schwag 4554	Posted - 2014.02.11 03:05:00 - [1] - Quote Congratulations. Despite the AV fact that CCP's "balance" has basically castrated nearly all forms of Anti-Vehicle weaponry, you've found the light on the other side. Even if it meant becoming one of them, you still pulled through. You discovered the Railgun, and the Jihad Jeep. And then used these tools to make short work of tanks, all while managing to still collect tears from the bad pilots There may have been a bit of outrage at the start, but you've adapted. Unlike the pilots, who QQ'd until Uprising 1.7's launch date, you've actually stopped the QQ and adapted. You've proven yourselves better than your enemy, and this shall be forever written in history. o7 -HAND Want to know how to make a strike-through? [s[Example[/s] Now go my Forum Warriors.

There will always be creative ways to take out threats, live with it and adapt. If it means to use the same means as your opponent, so be it. If you can't or don't want to use the same means, you have to be creative. Complaining about jihad jeeps is dumb, especcially if it comes from guys who think attacking infantry with a tank is a fair move... ROFL

AV never adapted and still havnt, they still expect to solo everything from a tower Look at vehicles from 1.0-1.6 and how they got nerfed while AV got buffs 400m map covering swarms, fire and forget Invisible corner avoiding swarms 3k dmg AV nades with heat seeking ability, spam and forget Proto AV vs std hulls/mods You never had it so easy and lets look at what you use now Jihad jeeps, **** easy to avoid A tank and even then its rail in the redline and you get beat by proper tankers From 1.0-1.6 i was still using tanks in public games but also in PC where OP AV was about and also other tanks Whats AV doing since 1.7? oh yea they quit Intelligence is OP

None of those three have ever had a time they were OP while HAVs have enjoyed that three times now in Dust history. aparetly you were not in chromosome either as the surya and sagaris were meant to be proto tanks. and also they were not super strong i have killed hundreds of suryas and sagaris..ive soloed prolly over a hundred in CHROMOSOME. lets not forget in chromsome rails hit detection was ** missiles were not used they were worthless shield hardeners didnt even exist as a valid object. blaster couldnt hit the largee side ofa barrel. a slight tilt to the ground would throw every one of your shots off. if you got stomped by tanks in chromosome and the met resistance and won they were merely better than you. tanks used to be the glitchyest thing in dust lol now they are great still have a few glitch issues and small balancing changes needed. but the only tank i have ever considered tank op was the original missile tank. in 1.7 there are some small changes needed to balance tanks..but they are definitly very destroyable and with teamwork its a cake walk more-tae-dee-um-more stop asking how to pronounce my name its quite irritating no one fights on even ground

MLT tank fitted with MLT weapon and mods can cost less than an adv drop suit, and go 30/0 (If piloted by a good tanker), My Jihad jeep build costs me less than that (Scanner & fuel injector on a gurista saga), but its still at least one 100% chance of death per tank kill. AV weaponry is crap right now so people adapt. Jihad Jeeps are a valid tactic, slap a bunch of remotes to the front and one is nothing more than a rolling bomb. If I hit something or get shot even once before delivering my payload to the side of a tank I'm dead. I would estimate that for every 1 tank kill via Jihad Jeep, there are 3 failures, which is still a higher % of success than trying to use lolAV weaponry aside from 2-3 guys with forge guns vs a shield or armor hardened tank. Tanks preach situational awareness to infantry to avoid being killed, perhaps its time that they take a page from their own books again. I am here to ask you one question, and one question only: EXPLOSIONS? THAT SENTENCE HAD TOO MANY SYLLABLES! APOLOGIZE!

Use it. still doesn't change anything I mean, sometimes sitting on top of the highest ground you can find and waiting for a tank to roll into view, is not the best way to deal with a tank. you are limiting yourself, tankers love av like you. while you are denying the area, he's rolling over your team elsewhere. It's called teamwork. If you do your job denying access to an entire object, your infantry are protected. Your tanks then are at an advantage due to the other tanks being put in a displaced position. It's being efficient as a soldier. Then again I am thinking about things like team member who wants to win. I guess this doesn't apply to pubs because of blueberries. So about those vehicle locks...

And that all you have to do is look at this and tell me no. eve offline DUST514 has officially distanced itself as a FPS. Only RTS players confuse AV (Anti-vehicle) as VD (Vehicle Deterrent). Cause that roll of the dice that they have ever known doesn't cover why a HAV goes down to AV. FPS are mostly modeled after RL. It wasn't hard to take a look at RL weapons and make small modifications to create weapons or create raw prints for new ones. Just like every other FPS (sci fi or current) has done. AV will always be AV. Even if it's not listed under the Eve universe. Which are years advanced but apparently haven't developed proper AV..... EDIT: At last I have seen many of my fellow FPS players take to other FPS games. KZ and BF and others. Always glad to see you guys there.

See, back then killing a tank required more than "DEEEERRRRRRPPPPPP I fired swarms, yay it's dead before I've even finished reloading!" and any time that gets changed you "av" guys ***** and moan until they get nerfed to useless. Do you even remember dumbfire swarms? If you hear the words "WORTH IT!" look about, something hilarious just happened.

Now you have room for other vehicle frames on the map. MAV as infantry support units. LAV as scout and rapid deployment vehicles. HAV as heavy anti vehicle destroyers for ground targets. All vulnerable to AV fire, all vulnerable to Aircraft fire, etc. "Just know that though our enemies may only #YOLO, through God's grace we can #YOLF at his side." - Disciple of Kesha

It's like waking one morning to go to work and there's bits of your car missing, it's apparent that it'll be in the shop for a weeks. Calling work crying about it, we just found another way to get to work. no, you stole someone else's car and then claimed to be a hero for it. Sorry, but the 7 months of AV centric tank "balance" means that AV should get to deal with a bit of seeing what its like to be the one legged man in an ass kicking contest. that feeling of uselessness? of helplessness? That's what tankers felt for 7 ing months of nerf after nerf. you get one nerf and you go scrambling to find whatever is OP and spam it. Someone wasn't here for Chromosome and it shows. During those terrible dark days (most of 2013) there was an armor tanked HAV fit that could solo an iFG comfortably at any range. If you want to compare melodrama Heavies had it worse against Slayer Medium Frames, Dropships just as bad, and Light Frames ten times over. None of those three have ever had a time they were OP while HAVs have enjoyed that three times now in Dust history. aparetly you were not in chromosome either as the surya and sagaris were meant to be proto tanks. and also they were not super strong i have killed hundreds of suryas and sagaris..ive soloed prolly over a hundred in CHROMOSOME. lets not forget in chromsome rails hit detection was ** missiles were not used they were worthless shield hardeners didnt even exist as a valid object. blaster couldnt hit the largee side ofa barrel. a slight tilt to the ground would throw every one of your shots off. if you got stomped by tanks in chromosome and the met resistance and won they were merely better than you. tanks used to be the glitchyest thing in dust lol now they are great still have a few glitch issues and small balancing changes needed. but the only tank i have ever considered tank op was the original missile tank. in 1.7 there are some small changes needed to balance tanks..but they are definitly very destroyable and with teamwork its a cake walk I've been around since second round registration of closed beta, missed the first round email by 24 hours. Pre Great. Missile nerf I never considered the Large Missiles OP. They were terrifying and got infantry kills but they were manageable if one played smart and reduced taking risks. My guess is they were part of the collateral damage over the Small Missile hate, which I'll admit I abused with dropships. Although some people I've talked to in the past have the view they were OP. They weren't in my opinion since such HAVs didn't assure victory nor did they outperform all other weapons on the leader boards. The three times HAVs I'm referencing were: closed beta during the scarce resource high-hurdle time when only the most dedicated gaming maniacs were able to build up the SP and ISK to get in them, the bricked-blaster-HAV of Chrome (go back to the posts at the time to see all the hate on these forums), and the last being Uprising 1.7 since a HAV is the question and answer for everything except hacking. Everyone has had bugs. In closed beta I had Forge Gun shots magically pass through HAVs, in Chromosome the direct-hit-no-damage glitch was a weekly occurrence. By the way that one is back. During Uprising I knew two people who quit the game mid-year because it stopped registering Sniper Rile shots. Right before open beta there was some kind of wired glitchyness with Blaster Turrets.

The ISK price of what an AV suit killed you means little, because unlike MLT vehicles, AV frames sacrifice their effectiveness against infantry, while MLT vehicles don't.

Sorry, but the 7 months of AV centric tank "balance" means that AV should get to deal with a bit of seeing what its like to be the one legged man in an ass kicking contest. that feeling of uselessness? of helplessness? That's what tankers felt for 7 **ing months of nerf after nerf. you get one nerf and you go scrambling to find whatever is OP and spam it. Tanks pre 1.7 weren't as bad as AV is post 1.7 Honestly seeing how tankers have acted since 1.7 has led me to the conclusion that WHEN they get nerfed into the ground I will never again show any sympathy for a Tanker as I will know full well what they are like when their tool is ridiculously OP I still see some Tankers saying that everything is fine and balanced ... This patch has lost Tankers an awful lot of infantry support and we do not forget !!!!

Highly mobile units are the future, so we probably wouldn't see anything but apcs in future warfare, and with reduced cost probably dropships (airborne deploys) only. Tanks will never be balanced against infantry, without one side qqing about the op'nes of the other. I'm not too concerned about realism because Eve and Dust both are antiquated warfare with laser shows. The issue is balance, tanks are vulnerable or should be vulnerable to AV solutions because that is their counter. Everything in this game has a hard counter. Tanks cost more than equivalent gear (A militia tank is more effective then a proto forge gun and at the same cost, without the SP investment) and are treated as large threats and prioritized, because they are large threats. If no one spawns in an AV fit they are unstoppable. If no one on the team has skilled adv-proto av and the enemy gets 1 rail tank to your redline, you have lost the match. I have many options to kill even prototype suits with militia gear, only a militia tank can kill a militia tank when it comes to no sp options. Only a militia tank spawned before a rail tank rushes (And tankers know this as I see rail tanks rush the enemy red line all the time) can stop other militia tanks. This isn't true of anything else in the game, period. Why? Because tanks are inherently immune to most things, and their militia level survivability requires much higher tier gear to compete. Can 8 swarms kill a militia tank? Eventually if they don't run away. But 8 militia side arms would be generous to say that they would count as 4 infantry. So now you have 15 infantry and 1 tank vs. 12 infantry. Hence force multiplier. Jihad Jeeps are easily killed even by enemy infantry, Infantry AV right now requires adv/proto forge to solo or a really stupid tanker for a proto swarm to solo and this is if the tank is a militia tank. Using tanks to fight tanks is like saying RR is balanced because you can use a RR. The most logical proposal to me is to keep tanks as they are, but to nerf the large turret to where it's ineffective against infantry. This way a tank has to use small turret operators in order to become all around effective. Why? Because if it's a team effort to kill a tank, it should be a team effort to operate a tank, that is competitive game design 101. In this case: Rail Turrets are fine Blaster Turrets would need to have their shot spread increased to where it would be blind luck to hit a small infantry target but be accurate enough to hit other vehicles, also the damage would need to be increased to allow it to compete with the other Large Turrets AV wise. Missles Turrets would need to have their splash radius reduced to be on par with flaylock and swarm launchers where a direct hit with a missle is pretty much required. As to the issue of tanks being realistic. Neither Eve nor Dust are realistic. Eve is essentially WW2 naval warfare in space while Dust is ground warfare circa the Vietnam War. As I have said before why use missles, plasma, lasers, etc. when you can disable the life support systems or hack the enemy drone systems. Likewise Dusts dropsuits would be too easily jammed and the occupants killed if they were dependent upon the suits functionality. Not too mention the MCC themselves should be able to auto target any ground forces and eliminate them.

What is the average kdr of a tanker do you think? Don't you have in effect two characters when you tank, you have all the benefits a tank gives you, pop out of it and you still have a drop suit just like everybody else. Tanks can be killed, but it is nowhere near a 1:1 ratio, wouldn't you agree? So how are they NOT OP? Tanks are always going to be OP, they will always give an advantage to the person using them, what we are really arguing about is the limits we want and will accept. Because, that's why.

Railguns are so OP they can be avoided by strafing around the target, dropships can use afterburners to outmaneuver it's tracking speed, two Ion Cannons can pop a Particle Cannon, another railtank can easily 3- shot them, a strategically placed dropship can avoid and dodge them. yup tanks definitely OP. Remote & Proximity Explosives? Really? Get Better. Want to know how to make a strike-through? [s[Example[/s] Now go my Forum Warriors. Use this new weapon for glory!

Remote & Proximity Explosives? Really? Get Better. I've seen boundless remotes explode on contact when I was running with a nitrous active. Particle Cannon is fine just fix damage mods maybe slightly less ROF I've seen armor ADS's survive 2 particle cannon shots unhardened (no dmg mods either) Rail = Anti tank it should stomp an ION and legend can kill most rail tankers with an ION cannon. EDIT: I rushed through that going to play actual game so if I missed something sarcastic don't troll me too much. Caldari Tanker/Minmatar Assault Forum warrior lvl 1 Prof. V scrub

Seriously, what the is a tankers problem? What because something can kill you, suddenly you guys have the right to *? Militia Assault rifles have been killing proto suits since they were first introduced. We as a community make fun of the proto QQ because they shouldn't expect an auto win. Why do tanks expect an auto win? Is it because they get an auto win on most suit loadouts and against lavs that aren't jihaded. Hills and shooting them once will stop jihad jeeps. Tankers are such spoiled brats, they ignore their inherent immunities and the fact that more than anything else in the game they can kill without reproach. When something can kill them, they *** to no end. Please just do the whole community a favor CCP and remove tanks so they will go play WoT or something... They aren't even a logical weapon in warfare 3000 years into the future. It's like using horses now, they would be far too easy to destroy. It's like thinking giant robots would be useful in warfare. We can use handheld devices to shred tanks in the modern world let alone in star wars future space world war sim. by that same logic, infantry is a very ancient military asset, if that's the case then infantry should be removed as well and everything replaced with drones. infantry is older than tanks are in the military world. You should of read my other post bud, I fully acknowledged everything about these games are not realistic. I just put it out of the way because the number one reason tankers say they should be OP is because they are "tanks". Claiming it's unrealistic if they can't eat 30 missles and a 6-8 rail gun blasts, when in reality the opposite is true, it's unrealistic that they can. It's all about GAME balance though, and tanks are not balanced from a game play perspective. See my other post you skipped over for why. Edit: Also no, you don't understand military strategy. Horses and Tanks aren't outdated because they are "Old". Infantry in modern warfare and future warfare would never be outdated. Drones can be disabled in ways that no military would hesitate to do unlike biological organisms. IE killing your own personnel and civilians.
